It was an awesome experience and unforgettable memories flying around Statue of Liberty which I enjoyed immensely. Would recommend it to everyone who has interest to visit the place.

I was seated next to the pilot. The view was partially blocked. I chose the sunset time and even though it was very beautiful, the route didnt go close to the building and only over the water. The trip was cut short due to the availability. I am still waiting for my refund.
