        We were a little early for fall colors but we food a great restaurant
        A new Italian restaurant that has amazing food . We were traveling as a family of 5 and tried many items that were served that day. Gnocchi, Black Tuscan kale salad, grand selezione , rigatoni with pork ragu, halibut and quail were the collections of delicious bites that we shared. My favorite was gnocchi . The restaurant was busy , but had excellent service .

        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.

        Wonderful Wedding Charter
        We hired Wings to fly us for our wedding in June 2022 in Mahwah, NJ. Anna, our contact at Wings, helped us pick out a great helicopter for my wedding entrance and exit. Our experience with the team was fantastic! Anna was extremely helpful and professional, and we had multiple emails and calls to get our vision just right. She did not rush us and was eager to work with our complicated requests. Unfortunately I did not get the name of our Pilot, but he was extremely professional during our entire ride. He helped us into the helicopter with large Indian wedding clothing which is a huge task in a confined space, and he gave us some fun facts about the surrounding area on the way to our venue. The Groom’s entrance, or “Baarat” in our language is usually done on extravagant vehicles, and this helicopter definitely stole the show. We loved working with Anna and Wings, and fully recommend them to anyone trying to book a private helicopter.

        Fantastic and memorable experience!
        We live in Westchester, and all I can say is if you are also living or based in Westchester, and looking for the easiest, smoothest and best helicopter experience of New York City, look no further. The facilities are fantastic, the staff are super friendly and helpful, and safety is their priority. We were extremely impressed, and it's awesome value compared with other companies too. 5 stars!

        Great flight
        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!

        Amazing! Phenomenal! Stunning! Absolutely loved our tour of NYC with Wings Air! Eric was awesome on the ground with us and Mario did a perfect job up in the air. We saw all of the best sites from above and enjoyed the commentary that went along with it. Such a spectacular experience. 100000/10 would recommend.

        What you should do!
        Riding in a helicopter should be on everyone’s bucket list, and you should do it with Wings Air. Not because I traveled with them, but because they are unparalleled in their ability to provide a top notch experience.

        I would highly recommend this experience to anyone. The organization and instructor were very easy to work with. Specifically, with regards to the flight instructor (Mario), he was highly professional, knowledge, enthusiastic, patient.. Every good thing you could say comes to mind. Very enjoyable experience, and I will most definitely be back.

      Anthony was a wonderful pilot and tour guide that gave my husband and I the experience of a lifetime. He was knowledgeable, affable and extremely professional. Don’t return home from New York without experiencing this tour, because no one wants to go home and say I wish I did that. The previous day we did a 7 hour bus, walk and ferry tour of New York. However, we were shown a whole new perspective from the sky. Traveling to Westchester airport allowed us to see some of the outer suburban area. We saw country clubs, dams, stadiums and so much more that we hadn’t seen. Seeing the Statue of Liberty up so close was an amazing experience. Loved it.

      I was very weary of going on a helicopter tour, but those fears all went away as soon as we met our highly experienced and friendly pilot and started liftoff! Brian was great!! Stopped and made sure we had all angles of landmarks for the best photos. Very smooth ride (we opted for the twin engine). Comfortable and mesmerizing. Highly recommended!

      We had the most amazing experience with this company....booked in advance via TripAdvisor before we arrived in NYC. Wanted the exclusivity of a private tour (as I’d planned to propose to my partner) and we were not disappointed with the customer service and the overall experience. Our original booking for the 30 December had to be cancelled owing to heavy rain and strong winds but we were offered an alternative flight on New Years Day (company don’t normally open on NYD) which we took.
      Lance our pilot was brilliant....for 30 mins he enthralled us with his dry sense of humour and knowledge of NYC from the air. Spectacular views of all the great city landmarks culminating in my proposal to my partner as we circled the Empire State Building.....truly memorable in every way!!
      A special note also to Paulo, our driver, very knowledge and thoroughly professional. We will most definitely fly with you again!! Thankyou for an unforgettable experience....🎉🎉🌇🌇

      The best experience in my life! 45 minutes of stunning views, two circles around the Statue of Liberty (so we could see and make pictures from each helicopter side). I’d do this again and again.

      What an absolutely amazing experience from the moment we was picked up by our driver Emile who was professional courteous and also a good laugh along the way which helped settle the nerves

      Then arrival at the airfield we was welcomed and offered refreshments and given a brief safety video to watch

      Once completed the safety video we was transported to our helicopter and as it was our anniversary the added extra of flowers and champagne just gave that little more spark to our flight

      Our pilot (I'm rubbish with names but I'm sure it was Anthony but I maybe wrong) but however our pilot was amazing at easing nerves and was very informative and professional but also able to have some good jokes with on our journey

      If you are fortunate enough to experience this trip you won't be disappointed especially if you have great weather

      If I could give this experience a 10 on trip advisor I would as definitely worth more than a 5

      You booked a tour on a third party website where we don’t control the advertising, unfortunately. We would be happy to ask the third party to make any necessary corrections but it’s impossible to do so without seeing the actual piece of advertisement in question. For our part: all tours have the type of helicopter listed in their descriptions, to manage customer expectations. Your tour took place in the exact helicopter that you booked. We operate larger options at higher price points. Our entire fleet is shown on our website with interior and exterior photos, for our customers’ perusal.
