$125 - Pilot a Helicopter: Private Flight Lesson, Reg. $220

The Deal

Each certified pilot at GPN Helicopters has more than 20 years of flying experience. For $125, Travelzoo subscribers can take to the skies during an introductory helicopter training flight, regularly $220.

Following 30 minutes of FAA-regulated ground training, climb aboard a two-person R22 Beta and spend 15 minutes at the controls of a state-of-the-art helicopter. Qualified instructors serve as co-pilots, guiding students through basic maneuvers and guarding the controls.

For $139, get the training flight plus roundtrip transportation from Manhattan on the weekends (pickup locations at 47th and 10th Avenue as well as 81st and Columbus).

Invite your friends: While only one person can fly the helicopter during the lesson, if one or two friends also buy vouchers, a group can ride in a four-person R44 Raven II (maximum three passengers) while taking in views of the Manhattan skyline.
