Carry a piece of New York aviation history with this US Helicopter backpack. The independent air shuttle began service in March 2006, linking Manhattan with JFK and later adding Newark and seasonal coastal routes. Its short, distinctive run ended abruptly in September 2009, leaving a memorable chapter for collectors of urban aviation and short-lived airlines. A fitting everyday choice for travel days, commuting, or showing your interest in the changing story of regional transportation.

US Helicopter was an independent air shuttle service headquartered at the Downtown Manhattan Heliport, Pier 6, East River, in Lower Manhattan, New York City. It began service in March 2006, connecting Manhattan with John F. Kennedy International Airport and, later, Newark Liberty International Airport and Bridgeport, Connecticut. Flights to JFK departed from the Downtown Manhattan and East 34th Street heliports; the East 34th Street service began in September 2006. Newark service followed in November 2006, using a secured area in Continental Airlines’ Terminal C. The company also offered charter flights and seasonal routes to East Hampton, New York, and Belmar, New Jersey. Its fleet comprised three Sikorsky S-76B helicopters, each configured for eight passengers and operated by two pilots. A planned order for Sikorsky S-76C aircraft was canceled after the company’s financial collapse. Facing severe financial difficulties in 2009, US Helicopter borrowed operating funds at high interest rates. It abruptly shut down on September 25, 2009. The following month, it reported that it lacked the resources to continue filing securities reports or preparing financial statements. The airline never resumed operations.

The padded laptop sleeve holds up to a 15" device snugly, and a fleece-lined pocket keeps sunglasses or small screens scratch-free. Two mesh side pockets keep a water bottle within easy reach, while roomy compartments organize chargers, notebooks, and daily essentials.
