Very enjoyable - the route was what was expected plus a few bonus loops around Empire State, Chrysler Building and twice around Times Square. Good value for an outstanding experience in a cloudless sky. Unforgettable! Good crew too.

The ride was great; however, the pilot was very quiet. I asked my daughter, who grew up in Florida, how she liked it, and she said it was OK, just a bunch of buildings.

Booked 25-30 minute tour but it only lasted 15 minutes. Was really disappointed and complained to staff at the time but they weren't interested. Was a shame as we wanted longer in the air.

I followed instructions and booked time for trip, 10.30 am. Arrived as requested 15 min prior to departure. After various excuses from being bumped to take a charter to a problem with windscreen our flight took off at 12.20, lasted barely 20 min when advertised as 25-30 min. Very disappointing and took edge off what was an excellent way to see New York. Pilot said virtually nothing during the trip.

It was a disappointment that we had bad view seats. We didn't see anything of Manhattan, the pilot flew only one direction and we sat at the wrong side, the side of New Jersey and Brooklyn. We had a glimpse of the Statue of Liberty and the Empire State Building and did NOT see Times Square and Ground Zero. The seats were pointed out, we cannot choose because of the weight balance, but we paid the same amount as the good view seats. That was a big disappointment. I am sorry to say so. The people who sat at the right side were very enthusiastic and blocked the complete window for us.
