Cheating people out their money , only going to Central Park then turn around. Suppose to go to Getorge Washington Bridge.
Short trip . Cheated people out of money. Only went to Central Park

The route map outlined on the home page of our website shows the required routes published by the FAA. For safety reasons, our pilots must follow those routes exactly. The Liberty Harbor tour flies to Central Park and turns around as outlined. The Big City tour flies over the George Washington Bridge and turns around as outlined. These routes are the same for every company. If you believe that your pilot deviated from the published routes, please contact us. [email protected] or (212) 422-1700

That was not what I had booked !
I had booked a 20 mn flight to see the north of Central Park and Manhattan. Because of a restricted flight area in North Manhattan, the flight I had booked was transformed in a flight to the south of the industrial harbour. I would prefer a manager propose to make a flight to just 15 minutes. The overview of the port brings absolutely no interest. In addition, to maximize the return flight , the helicopter embarked 6 passengers including one ends up on the middle seat , uncomfortable spot where you can not sit up properly, preventing the helmet to raise your head without hit the ceiling ... I let you imagine what place I had. In short, the survey of NYC helicopter will not bring interest with respect to the views that we have the Top of the Rock or Empire State Building. I expressed my dissatisfaction on our return flight , but my interlocutor would not listen . For nearly 600 $ for 2 people , I find that the more unpleasant attitude. Came on the advice of a guide, I will certainly make it my home.
