See New York City’s amazing skyline lit up in a perspective normally reserved for private charters! This unique experience starts at Linden Municipal Airport, in Linden, NJ, in one of HeliNY’s 6-passenger Bell407 helicopters.
Linden Municipal Airport is best reached by car, with ample parking. The airport is about 1 hour from midtown Manhattan depending on traffic. Passengers can also utilize NJ Transit’s Northeast Corridor & North Jersey Coast Line local trains to Linden Train Station where passengers can take a car service to the airport, approximately a 10-minute drive. We recommend, if possible, arranging any transportation in advance, as taxi service at Linden Train Station can be limited.
• The journey begins by flying past Newark International Airport towards Manhattan. Enroute to the New York Harbor, views of the illuminated Statue of Liberty will awe before viewing the skyscrapers of the Financial District.
• Flying north along the Hudson River, guests will catch a glimpse of the Empire State Building, as well as Madison Square Garden, Hudson Yards, Chelsea, The West Village, SOHO, and TRIBECA. 9/11 Memorial and the One World Trade Center are also in view.
• Guests will fly the length of Central Park, glimpsing Yankee Stadium before turning around at the top of Manhattan! They will fly above the George Washington Bridge, one of the busiest bridges in the world and always a stream of lights, before returning along the same path, offering all passengers spectacular views of the Manhattan skyline.
