We received validation of our tickets only a few hours before the experience, despite several reminders. The only reply was: "You'll have them in 30 minutes". The 30 minutes took over 12 hours. Then only one ticket out of the 2 purchased was scheduled. Once again, Headout was not at all up to scratch. Fortunately, the airline contacted us and blocked us an extra seat despite Headout's failure to book. Once again, support told us that the problem would be resolved within 30 minutes, but in the end they didn't solve it. What a shame for tickets costing over 800 USD! We'll never use Headout again.

I paid for my trip at your counter and was also charged by Headout. I sent an email and tried to contact to fix error but have gotten no where to date.

Exclusive attractions in just 30 minutes
Gaze in awe at the suspended bridge that is the gateway between Staten Island and New York, the Verazzano Narrows Bridge, which at one time was the longest suspension bridge in the world. Look out upon the bays that make up Staten Island before heading to a very different island indeed. Every summer, Coney Island turns into an amusement park, a dream of every kid in New York and there's no better way to admire its intricacies than from the air!
