    First Timer
    It was my first time riding in a helicopter and that part was great. However, I thought we'd see more of the city vs just the skyline, East/Hudson rivers etc. A 30min tour is literally 15mins in and 15mins back.

    A once in a lifetime experience (or more :-))
    Everything was incredible, from lift-off to landing, worth every dollar! Very professional and courteous staff, nicely looking and well kept helicopter, and a pilot with skills second to none.

    A Great First Helicopter Flight Experience For Out-Of/Towners
    A phenomenal experience, from end to end! We were picked up at our hotel, and driven to n the airport. The staff, and pilot/instructor were friendly and knowledgeable! They explained everything and made the hour long first helicopter flight experience truly enjoyable, and an event to talk about and share with friends and family!

    Best Helicopter 🚁 tour in NYC
    I’m literally lost for words??? If you’re looking for a cheap quick helicopter 🚁 ride (most 12 minutes) please please book via Wings. I booked the 45 minute flight for my daughters 18th birthday and from being picked up via the most friendly driver Emile (couldn’t have wished for better travel as Emile was a so friendly talking us through the drive and areas and reassuring us re the flight! What an absolutely fantastic person he was!!!! Upon arriving at the airport we were introduced to our pilot James and again I’m literally lost for words with regards to how professional he was!! Upon taking off for the 45 minute flight James throughout was the complete pilot and honestly never thought I would experience a night flight like that??? Literally James is an absolute legend of a pilot and one of the nicest guys I’ve met!!!! Thank you James for making my daughter’s 18th birthday 🎂 the best day ever!!!! Wings you are the BEST OUT THERE AND THE REAL DEAL 🚁🚁🚁

    Unforgettable Private Helicopter Tour of NYC
    The Private Helicopter Tour from Westchester was absolutely amazing! The views of New York City from above were breathtaking, and our pilot shared fascinating insights about the skyline. The intimate setting for our group of four made it even more special. A must-do experience for anyone wanting a unique perspective of the city!

    Very Beautiful Perspective
    Very professional. Very easy. The pilot was knowledgeable and confident. Very nice and entertaining trip. I would recommend it very highly. I suppose the only thing that would have made it better is if we had ventured further west to find areas where the foliage was a little more advanced, but aside from that it was a great trip.

    Thrilling and Lovely
    Being in a helicopter above such an iconic city was thrilling. I felt completely safe the whole time. Our guide and pilot answered all our questions, though he wasn't as knowledgeable about the area as I would have liked. We started early and returned early and I don't think we got a full 45 minutes, but it was close. I feel like the experience was way too expensive and I will never do it again, but for once in a lifetime, we decided to pay the price. I will just never tell anyone how much we spent. Other than the value per buck, I would give this excursion 5 stars.

    Thrilling Experience!
    A very good fiend of mine and her family were visiting from Shanghai. Their 14 year old son desperately wanted to experience NYC from the air in a helicopter. After searching many companies online, I chose Wings Air (WA) for their trip. From the moment I contacted WA, everything was perfect. Anna and Eric were so professional and quick to respond to any questions I had, via phone and text. A family member with a great deal of experience with helicopters called and spoke to Anna also. He was super impressed with her knowledge and professionalism. Answered every question he had and he wholeheartedly gave his stamp of approval. Anna suggested an 8 pm, 45 minute flight. This way they would have daylight, sunset and night over the city. It was PERFECT. My friends were picked up at their hotel in the city and driven to Westchester, where they boarded the helicopter. I do not know the details of preboarding, etc., but I'm sure it was top notch. The 45 minute ride was everything they could have wished for and their son was over the moon happy. Driver was waiting to take them back to the city. All in all it was perfect. Thanks to all at WA who made this once in a lifetime adventure happen for my friends. Highly recommend!!

    One of the Best Experiences of My Life!
    One of the best experiences of my life. Erik greeted us and was gracious from the start. He explained the trip from start to finish, very thorough and knowledgeable. James was our pilot and he was the consummate professional. He put me at ease and was patient and very clear with his instruction. When I did take the controls, he made me feel at ease and encouraged me with his calm and supportive demeanor. I highly recommend this experience for any aviation enthusiast and even for those who are not!

    Awesome Experience
    I booked this introductory lesson as an anniversary gift for my husband and he was so thrilled with it! The service is excellent and the staff are kind and friendly. This was definitely the best intro to piloting we could have asked for.

60th birthday treat for me. Went for "Sunset Tour". It was excellent, mainly as our transfer was late, so we got more "sunset" than we has planned. Great pilot, great communication in-flight, a bit bumpy, but that's the way it goes sometimes!
