Security & Safety are Top Priority (right before fun!)

In order to make your helicopter flight a pleasant and safe experience, we need your assistance in the flight preparation process. Helping us in this process will ensure a safe, fun and memorable experience.

• Liberty Helicopters will not fly anyone without a valid form of photo identification. Valid photo identification must be out and ready to be photo copied for everyone in your party (Examples: Passport, driver's license, military identification)
• With the exception of cameras, there are no personal belongings permitted on the helicopter. You are permitted to leave all personal belongings in the waiting area (at your own risk). For the safe keeping of your personal belongings we strongly recommend utilizing the lockers located in the rear of our facility. Tokens for these lockers are available at the ticket counter and can be purchased for $2.00 at the time of check-in. Lighters, keys, cell phones, hand bags, knapsacks, makeup and any other personal belongings are not permitted on board the helicopter.

• After securing your personal belongings please listen for your name to be called. Prior to going through security, you must remove all metal objects (belt, pins, pens, watch etc) and place them in the plastic basket provided by the security guard.

• Once security has been completed you will watch a 3 minute safety video and be given a floatation device. Our flight coordinator will then explain our weight and balance loading procedure. For your safety and the weight and balance of the helicopter, you may or may not be seated next to everyone in your party.
•                                                
• Prior to boarding the helicopter our ramp staff will take a digital photo of you and your party in front of the helicopter. You will have the option to purchase this photo after your flight. Once your photo has been taken our ramp staff will direct you to your seat and secure you inside the helicopter. (Please Note: The main responsibility of our ramp staff is to keep you safe while boarding and exiting the helicopter and ramp area
• When your tour has been completed DO NOT attempt to open helicopter doors the ramp staff will assist you in exiting the helicopter. You will then be safely guided to the gift shop area in heliport.
• Don’t forget to purchase your digital photo that was taken before flight. This is a perfect way to remember your “Once in a Lifetime Experience” with Liberty Helicopters.

We hope you enjoy your helicopter tour of New York City and we thank you very much for flying with Liberty Helicopters.

Your Safety is Our Business!
