Bangkok--Feb 8--eTurboNews
US Helicopter announced today the first scheduled helicopter airport shuttle service in more than 20 years to provide travel between Manhattan and NYC area airports, with an average flight time of eight minutes. The airport shuttle service between JFK International Airport (JFK) and Downtown Manhattan Heliport (JRB), at Wall Street, commences Monday, March 13, 2006.
US Helicopter also saves travelers time, stress and the frustration of airport security lines. Passengers are screened
by federally regulated TSA security at the heliport, and US Helicopter flights land on the secure side of the airport, at JFK's Terminal 9.
Passengers traveling via the American Airlines global network and departing from Terminal 9, are checked-in at the
Manhattan Heliport, where they obtain boarding passes and baggage receipts to their final destination. These passengers remain in secure areas, eliminating the need to go through customary airport security at JFK. Passengers traveling with other airlines proceed to AirTrain or ground transportation at JFK to connect to the appropriate terminal, where they complete the check-in process and proceed through security to their flight gate.
