Used the ushelicopter service last Friday,they`ve got a great deal on currently,$99 for the 8 min flight !

They use Sikorsky S76 twins ( our one was a bit of a rattly thing and did nothing to convince my wife to fly with me in the Robby !)

34th St terminal should be considered a confined area with only about 2 rotor dia clearance forward of landing site and an immediate drop in the river behind (did`nt prevent three heli`s landing though !)

Don`t think they operate weekends though .

You`ll have a blast in the big apple, lot`s to see n do , have a great time.
