No two flights are the same.

Variables in time of day, seasons, weather, and a custom flight plan have photographers flying with us time and time again. Each photo flight is tailored to what you would like to see. Want to go high or low? Want to focus on a specific building or landmark? Take your photography to new heights with FlyNYON.

Your only worry should be what shot to capture next.

We take the thrill of shooting images from an open door helicopter, and makes it accessible by offering crowdsourced seats, without compromising on safety. Our New York City flights are conducted in rigorously maintained jet-engine helicopters featuring redundancies in seat belts, floatation devices, and/or dual engines. All flights are piloted by experienced crew with thousands of hours logged. We combined this knowledge of aviation with our passion for photography.

Sky’s not the limit; it’s our office.

We’ve flown over 750,000 passengers since we opened our doors in 2012, offering photo flights in New York City. Looking to fly in another city? Call our Customer Service line for more info. 1-855-696-6247
