They also serve EWR.

Codeshare with CAL too.

Same non-rev price. GREAT chopper pilots too. Several are former NYPD so they know the area like the back of their hand. Nice guys.

Awesome! The next time me and the wife head to NYC I'm definitely going to try it out. 100 bucks for two ain't bad. Is there usually room for non-revs?

PilotFrog

Heck it is cheaper than a cab isn't it? How often does it have ope seats?

How sweet would it be to roll in for a flight on a helicopter?

For those of you that might use it..

Yeah, you just stole some serious thunder from my pimp-tastic mode of transport to Manhattan on Friday nights. Thanks a lot. So uhhhhh, I hear you should NEVER try to ride on them from EWR.
