An unforgettable experience! I did the helicopter ride solo during my New York trip and was lucky enough to get the cockpit seat. The views were incredible, and I’d highly recommend it whether you’re traveling alone or with others!! ❤️

Everything was fine, they just charged me an extra $40 that I wasn’t expecting. They didn’t even explain to me why. 🤨

nice and quick. even if it’s fairly quick you still have time to see most of the important sights seeing

It was a great experience to view New york through different lens! Great places to visit and a nice history shared by the pilot

The flight was good, the pilot was friendly, knowledgeable and accommodative. However, the ground crew was a different story. They were not accommodating at all when we wanted to take some pictures on the way to the aircraft. They wanted us to engage their service which is quite a ripp off. If they can take our pictures, why can’t we take ourselves? Why must we engage their costly services? I have taken quite a number of rides myself around the world, be it in Hawaii, European & Asian countries with many operators but Champ Aviation ground crew was the rudest of all, yelling at us, blocking us from taking pictures, and only allow their cameraman to do it, of course the cameraman won’t do us a favor to us our own camera I do not recommend people to take a trip with them or it will spoil the holiday mood for the rest of your stay in NYC

It was very nice to fly with the helicopter over Manhattan. Had great views of Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island. Unfortunately, we had quite a bit of waiting time until the tour started.

This was a great experience. You get to see the city from a different angle. Beautiful views from the air.

From booking to leaving Charm Aviation delivered an absolutely flawless experience that exceeded all expectations. Their communication was second to none. If you're looking for a breathtaking and truly unforgettable way to see New York City, look no further – this is it. The booking process was smooth and professional. Upon arrival, we were warmly welcomed by the crew, and every safety protocol was handled with care and precision, which immediately put us at ease. The helicopter was immaculate and modern, with large windows offering unobstructed, views of the skyline. Our pilot was incredibly skilled, friendly, and knowledgeable, pointing out landmarks and sharing interesting facts along the way. The flight itself was smooth, exhilarating, and filled with “wow” moments. What sets Charm Aviation apart is their attention to detail and genuine passion for creating memorable experiences. This wasn’t just a tour – it was a VIP adventure from the air that left us speechless. Highly recommend for couples, families, or anyone wanting to see NYC from a whole new perspective. Worth every penny and then some. We'll absolutely be flying with them again!
