Great experience - The helicopter was nice. The trip was very smooth, and the city was amazing. It would have been nice to stay over the city a little longer, but for the price, it was too short. The pilot was great, and the facility was excellent.

Memorable experience! - This was a fantastic experience from start to finish. Pilot Chuck was excellent and took us all around the Chicago skyline and over many important landmarks. His commentary was likewise outstanding. My daughter and I had a phenomenal time discovering Chicago on our trip together, but this was the definitely one of the things we'll always remember!

Pilot cancelled day of - Received a text from pilot the night before at 11 pm saying he cannot take us. This was a gift for my wife for her Birthday celebration and supposed to be a surprise that they ruined. After asking if someone else can take me he attempted to reach out to other pilots. Pilot stated his flight got cancelled last minute but not sure which flight leaves an airport that late to begin with. I HAD to reach out to pilot the next morning (the morning of) to see if there were any replacements. There were none and they couldn’t offer any other time slots besides one very late one. The one time slot they offered would have put us beyond their closing hours and I had dinner reservations at a very special restaurant that was booked a month in advance difficult to reserve, and could not cancel. I would not recommend this group if you have planned this as a gift, they ruined the surprise day for my wife. They did offer a refund after I asked for one. Don’t use this company if you plan on doing this as a special gift for someone as they are very unprofessional.

Late cancellation by the pilot - Pilot cancelled one hour prior to our scheduled time. While I appreciate his concern for our safety. I was on the Uber already from the city (Chicago). The Uber driver was lovely but $200 for a ride in an Uber was not the helicopter over the city experience I was expecting. I do need to note he offered to reschedule but due to the fact I have other plans and I’m on a vacation for my Birthday my time was extremely limited. I was given a refund but my dissatisfaction and disappointment was an understatement.
