NYC Helicopter Proposals are a unique and truly memorable way to get engaged. The concept of a helicopter proposal is that you come in with your unsuspecting significant other like you would for a regular helicopter tour. After check-in and the mandatory safety briefing your proposal is in your hands: pop the question mid-flight or after landing, next to the helicopter, using our illuminated “marry me” sign in a surprise reveal. Helicopter proposals are flexible: you can book just the flight, customize it with extras, or book a helicopter proposal package and leave the planning to us.
PROPOSAL PACKAGE
Start a new chapter together by soaring above the iconic Manhattan skyline in your private helicopter, guided by experienced pilots. First your driver will pick you up anywhere in Manhattan along with your unsuspecting significant other, just like for a regular helicopter tour. Upon arrival at the airfield you will meet a professional engagement photographer who will accompany you on the flight (under a cover story) in a state-of-the-art Airbus AS350 helicopter and document every moment for your photo album. You will be able to create a perfect proposal plan with your photographer in advance.
Helicopters lift off from Westchester County Airport and reach NYC airspace in just a few minutes. On a 30-minute helicopter tour our skilled pilots will dazzle you with bird’s-eye views of Midtown Manhattan, Central Park, Empire State Building, Harlem, Yankee Stadium and the George Washington Bridge. (Please note: the 30-minute tour does not reach Lower Manhattan/Statue of Liberty area.) The 45-minute extended tour includes all sights from the 30-minute tour and continues to Lower Manhattan to see the Freedom Tower, Battery Park and Ellis Island. Wave to Lady Liberty before circling back to White Plains.
As your helicopter is returning from the tour, our large, illuminated “MARRY ME?” sign is revealed near the landing zone to surprise and delight your new fiance. Helicopter proposals also include complimentary champagne toast for ages 21+ and a bouquet of roses handed out after the flight.
