I'm absolutely terrified of heights, I was absolutely terrified to go on all though adamant that I wasn't going to miss the opportunity whilst in NY. I can honestly say the edge observation deck is more scary. The pilot was very smooth through out the whole flight and even through you are much higher than you are on the observation deck it felt much more safe. 100% recommend doing it and I'd definitely do it again.

Very disappointing!!! Booked more than 4 weeks in advance and two days before the reservation they told me that the time isn’t available. It wasn’t possible to reschedule this flight.

It was a thrilling ride over Manhattan. My wife and I took this ride as a way to celebrate our seven and one-half year wedding anniversary. We definitely reached new heights!!

This is a 10/10 experience and could not recommend enough. Although the flight is quite short you get a fantastic view of the NY skyline. We did ours at 5pm so we had the view from above of the city at night which again I would recommend as the views are unbelievable. The pilot was great as he commentated on what we were flying past etc. Do this if you are planning on visiting New York !
