Khushi Suri, a resident of New York City, recently made headlines by opting for a helicopter ride over a traditional Uber to navigate the city’s bustling streets. Her decision was prompted by the need to travel swiftly from Manhattan to John F. Kennedy International Airport in Queens. Presented with the choice between a potentially hour-long Uber ride costing USD131.99 and a five-minute helicopter trip priced at USD165, Suri opted for the latter due to its significantly quicker travel time. The story quickly gained traction on social media, with many expressing surprise at the modest price difference for such a time-saving journey.
