Uber is now allowing New York City users to book helicopter flights to John F. Kennedy International airport through its app. The company says flights to and from Lower Manhattan will become available to all Uber users on Oct. 7, 2019. Uber made the feature available to its premium members in June. The eight-minute flight costs between $200 and $225 per person and include ground transportation on either side of the trip. Uber’s prices roughly compare to those of competitors.
