They're super scammers! They said they'll give a 70% off discount and the price is actually 3 times higher than the price they advertise (it's a hook of course). BE VERY AWARE OF OTHER HIDDEN FEES. ... Overall disappointed.

These guys are just scammers. They make prices supposedly higher, then give you a supposed 70% discount. As a result, you get a flight at the average market price. However, they will then start charging you 5.99 for membership. There will not be a word about membership in your personal account. Membership doesn't give you anything. There are no conditions for membership on the site, not even the validity period of the free period. Membership literally gives you nothing other than a mid-price flight. That's how they make a significant portion of their money, because you can't even cancel your membership until you crawl through their website and write to them asking to cancel.

They are real scammers. My flight was leaving at 9am. I knew I had to be there 1 hour and 15 minutes before but due to a traffic jam I arrived at 8 am. They charged me an extra 75 USD late fee. Then I waited for an hour to watch a simple 5 minute video and they put me on the helicopter that was leaving at 9am which was my flight. On top of this they have subscribed me to their club and are charging me 6 USD every month. They make you believe they are giving you a 70% discount when in reality they are ripping you off and charging 50% more for nothing. Be very careful with them!

So I can‘t rate the experience itself because we never actually got to do it. First of all they do this 70% off flash sale to make you book quickly (the sale is actually all the time). It says 150$ per seat but you end up paying crazy booking fees as well as a guaranteed window seat so you end up paying over 300$ per seat. But okay, let‘s spent it for this „once in a lifetime experience“. The day before the flight, we got an email saying our flight has been cancelled due to „equipment repositioning“. No further explanation. I reached out immediately to them to see if there is anything they can do to make us fly anyways, at another time etc. They didn‘t even bother answering me to several mails. We were super disappointed. I ended up getting an answer when we had already left New York. They just said the flight is non-refundable and that we would get credits to use within 12 months. So far I haven‘t even got those credits and apparently you have to pay fees to actually use them! I‘ve read this kind of reviews before booking but decided not to believe them, which I now regret. So if you are hesitating wether you should book or not: Don‘t do it!

Suppression du vol le jour même, et incapable de reprogrammer un vol avant notre départ, 9 mois plus tard aucun remboursement de fait. À fuir.

WORST EXPERIENCE EVER. I was looking forward to get in a helicopter since I booked my trip to New York and this was the worst thing I did while being here. You have to be there 1h15min prior to flight departure and we were only 20 min later (so basically 55min prior to the booked flight departure time) due to traffic and we had to pay £75 additionally per person to still be able to get in the flight?? We still had a whole 55 min to do everything?? After watching the security video and putting on the belt we still had 20-30 minutes?? So we had to pay for no reason since we still had to wait. Then we went outside with the bus and there we had to wait so long for the pilot, in the meantime the departure time we booked already past and we still were waiting… So we had to pay additionally while we had enough time and then they were late?? After 30 minutes our names were finally called and we were heading towards the helicopter, where the pilot was explaining some security rules again. But then the flight itself… I could not see ANYTHING. The wind was so hard that at some point I just had to close my eyes and I was shaking the whole time because of the wind. I tried to put my feet out but then my whole body from head to toes starting shaking and the headphones kept falling off my head due to the wind. While the strange thing is that this was not because bad weather. I could not take any pictures or videos, I couldn’t see anything and I had to pay extra FOR THIS?? I’m really disappointed because I was so excited for this… If I only knew that the flight experience would be like this I would’ve never paid extra…

To anyone considering booking a helicopter tour in New York City, I highly recommend that you avoid FlyNYON. My experience with them was extremely disappointing, and I am still waiting for a refund that they promised me in January. Despite purchasing their weather insurance, which they claimed would guarantee a full refund if the tour was cancelled due to bad weather, I have not received any reimbursement from them. I have tried contacting them multiple times, but they have been unresponsive and unhelpful. It's very disappointing, as I was really looking forward to the experience, but unfortunately, the weather didn't cooperate. While I understand that weather is out of anyone's control, I feel that FlyNYON should honor their promises and provide refunds as they advertise. I also find it concerning that they have negative reviews online from other customers who have had similar experiences.I sincerely hope that FlyNYON will rectify this situation and provide me with the refund that I am owed. In the meantime, I advise anyone thinking of booking a helicopter tour to be wary of this company's promises and consider other options instead. Thank you for reading, and I hope that my experience can help other customers make more informed decisions.

Non posso valutare un'esperienza che mi è stata cancellata, senza spiegazioni, la sera precedente. Ed è vergognoso che non rimborsino!
