So my golf bag and I can fly to the Hamptons and back for the price of a decent used car. Sign me up!

Still, it's better than chartering the S-76. A charter will probably run you about $4500...EACH way.

What's so wrong with the Hampton Jitney?

At least the Jitney has wireless!

Great news, if only my driver knew how to find the heliport, he generally doesn't go west of 5th or east of Park lol.

Have you ever been out to the Hampton's during the summer? Westhampton Airport is packed with Biz jets. Fire Island's wealth can't compare as most of the homes are weekend to weekly rentals. While I think the price is sky high there is certainly a lucrative market for it.

Was there ever any other commercial air service to Eastern LI?

I think Mario was making a reference to East Hampton's homosexual population. :)

I wonder if a Zed fare exists. Does anyone know what the two letter code of US Heli is?
