City Lights Experience

See New York City’s dazzling skyline from above on our City Lights Experience. This unique flight departs from Linden Airport in Linden, NJ for a 25-30 minute trip around Manhattan.

Start your journey either soaring above Newark International Airport or Staten Island before flying into New York Harbor to visit the illuminated Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island! See the lights of Times Square as you travel to the top of Manhattan towards the George Washington Bridge, one of the busiest bridges in the world! View Manhattan’s skyscrapers, including the iconic Empire State Building, Chrysler Building and One World Trade Center emblazoned in lights in an unforgettable experience.

The only way to see the skyline of New York lit up at night is to choose this experience departing from New Jersey. Don’t worry if you don’t have a car while you’re visiting New York as Linden Station can easily be reached by NJ Transit. From the station, we are a short ride away in a car service! If you’re a NJ local looking for a way to see the views of NYC while never having to pay a toll across the Hudson this is the experience for you with ample free parking on-site!
By far the best view of the Statue of Liberty from New Jersey is from a HeliNY sightseeing tour! Check out the interactive map below to preview the sights of New York City you can see without stepping foot outside of New Jersey!
