Heliport Ride High Above New York Skies
In midtown New York crowds gaze at six large helicopter airliners landing on the Pan Am Building rooftop. New York Airways operates from a 308-foot heliport with passengers boarded via elevator to a 57th-floor lounge. Fares start at $7 with $10 for a return trip. Flights to Kennedy International are quick, with six-minute cycles and a safety note on wind deflectors.
