Overview
Create a once-in-a-lifetime proposal with a private helicopter journey from Manhattan to a secluded lakeside airstrip in Upstate New York, featuring a scenic NYC aerial tour along the way.
During the flight, enjoy a champagne toast (21+), a bouquet of roses, and gourmet chocolates to set the tone. A professional photographer discreetly captures every moment—from departure to the proposal—ensuring memories that last forever.
Upon landing, choose your perfect setting: beside the helicopter, along the tranquil lakeside, or beneath towering trees. With advance notice, the runway can accommodate friends and family for a surprise celebration.
Your helicopter remains on-site for one hour, allowing time to celebrate before returning to Manhattan in style.
Designed for ultimate privacy and romance, this experience offers breathtaking scenery and a fully personalized touch.
Availability: March–November.
Flight time: ~30 minutes each way.
