I still remember your Celtic park/Ibrox tour video, that was legendary 😂😂 i’m doing this in NY in a couple of weeks, never been on a helicopter before so i’m bricking it a bit 🤣🤣

Thanks man - ah you're going to love it! It seems dangerous, but what they don't tell you is that the forces acting on you / air resistance virtually sucks you into the cabin. This combined with the two harnesses they make you wear means that it's damn-near impossible for anything to go wrong. Enjoy!

Hi there, excellent video! , QQ: Besides all the extracharges, do they charge you for a heliport fee? Do you know Is there is anyway to avoid the booking fee?
@UltimateBucketList5 ай бұрын
Thanks! To answer your question: I'm not aware of any heliport fee? If there is one, it's probably included in the price somewhere? I'm not sure if there is any way of avoiding the booking fee unless you can somehow negotiate that off the list price when you call them? That might be worth looking into.

Hey great video! Do you remember how much it was to upgrade to the 30mins? I’m heading to NY on the 21st Sept and booked the Flynyon experience for the 24th Sept. I did the 15mins with the guaranteed spot for the shoe selfie. Thanks
@UltimateBucketList4 ай бұрын
It wasn't much, it was only like an extra $100 or something? Which beats the $150 upgrade price on the website. When you check in at the desk, say you bought the shoe selfie and ask for the rear left seat (the best seat in my opinion). They should give it to you, seeing as though you paid for it. Hope you have an amazing time!

@@UltimateBucketList Thank you so much! Your tips have been super helpful. Let’s just hope the weather is nice 😅 By the way, did you say it was best to take an Uber/Taxi to the place? Cos me and my partner was planning on taking Train/Bus to save a bit of money… 👀

@UltimateBucketList I'll certainly bear it in mind, I'm thinking about either completing the set of national stadiums in the UK, I've already been to Olympic Stadium (London), Twickenham, Wembley and Principality, only Lords, Murrayfield, Hampden Park and whatever the equivalent is in Belfast, although it's going to be hard to beat my 30th when I went to Turin and went round Juventus, unfortunately they were away that weekend so didn't get to watch a game there but the stadium and museum tour was good, funny story my sister who went with me didn't know that we were near the alps until she saw them on the bus to the airport heading home, she thought we were near the Mediterranean

remember that you will also be automatically a monthly subscriber and end up paying around US$5 a month until you cancel your card. But other than that then this was a fantastic experience that I also just took 3 weeks ago

Oh really? I never had any subscriptions or any charges every month. Isn't it great though? I'd totally do it again.

Apparently, you can visit North Korea on the tour group. You’ll need to go to Beijing train station or airport and they’ll take you to Pyongyang with a special group but you’re not allowed to leave the group. But I’ve got to warn you there are some certain places where you can’t take pictures. And you can’t wear jeans as it’s an offence to North Korea.
@UltimateBucketList6 ай бұрын
@aidanphillips9337 sadly not the tour group I was on?! Maybe if I go to Beijing one day, I'll end up in North Korea?!
