The experience was...

The experience was cancelled due to bad weather. At first,we thought it was going to go. Then it was cancelled.

Operator response

We’re very sorry your tour was cancelled and understand how frustrating that can be. Weather conditions can change quickly, and while it initially appeared the tour might be able to operate, conditions ultimately did not meet our safety requirements. The decision was made due to safety conditions outside of our control, as guest safety always comes first. We did provide a refund and hope to have the opportunity to fly with you in the future.

Incredible service and views

My very first helicopter ride and it was incredible. Our pilot was the best, she made us feel comfortable and safe. My boyfriend surprised me with the Birthday and Romantic packages - the Happy Birthday sign , champagne, chocolates and gifts were icing on the cake. Highly recommend Heli Co New Orleans for a view of the city few experience.

Operator response

Happy Birthday again! Thank you so much for the kind words!
