Lift off from the Downtown Manhattan Heliport and bank over the Statue of Liberty, Brooklyn Bridge, and the full Manhattan skyline in a private helicopter. This is New York in 15–30 minutes of pure, breathtaking aerial luxury.
What to expect
You're harnessed into the helicopter at the Downtown Heliport on Pier 6, East River. The pilot sweeps south over Governors Island and circles the Statue of Liberty at close range before arcing back along the gleaming Hudson River edge of Lower Manhattan. The entire Financial District, One World Trade Center, and the Brooklyn Bridge pass beneath you. Photography-configured flights keep doors fully open, letting you capture images of extraordinary quality.
Good to know
Book directly at flynyon.com as far in advance as possible — private and doors-off slots are limited. The heliport is at 6 East River Piers in Lower Manhattan; a rideshare from Midtown piers takes about 20 minutes. Flights are weather-dependent; FlyNYON offers rebooking flexibility.
