America’s largest heliport, with access to the world’s most expansive urban helicopter market, is driving the transformation of tomorrow’s vertical-lift ecosystem.
Helo Holdings Inc. (HHI) is the largest dedicated FBO heliport operation in the United States, with a metropolitan-adjacent site purpose-built for the next frontier in aviation — eVTOL and urban air mobility.
With direct access to the world’s largest urban helicopter market, highly constrained airborne and land-constrained real estate, and seamless ground logistics into the metropolitan core, HHI stands as the premier vertical-aviation hub.
Located just 2 minutes flying time from Manhattan in Kearny, New Jersey, the facility offers premium infrastructure: over 70,000 sq ft of hangar space, plus an additional 10,000 sq ft of lease-ready class A administrative offices (an additional 4,000 sq ft of in-hanger offices), coupled with full-service FBO amenities.
This unique convergence of location, purpose-built infrastructure, and connectivity presents a strategic platform for the emerging vertical-mobility value chain. HHI is not just a heliport — it is critical infrastructure for the future of electric vertical take-off and landing aircraft for urban-air mobility systems.
HHI to install the first air taxi charger
“We’re pleased to expand our partnership with HHI as we prepare to install our GEACS charging system at Kearny Heliport. Kearny is expected to become the first heliport with an air taxi charger in the tri-state area and enable the launch of our quiet, emissions-free air taxi service in the greater New York City region,”

eVTOL / Urban Air Mobility Opportunities
Given the rapid evolution of the eVTOL (electric Vertical Take-Off and Landing) and urban air mobility (UAM) markets, HHI Heliport is exceptionally well-situated to capture first-mover advantage in this domain:
Strategic metropolitan location: With immediate proximity (two minutes flight) to New York City’s ultra-dense economic zone, HHI offers one of the highest-value landings for eVTOL and UAM services targeting executive & intra-city mobility.
Scalable platform for transition: As air-mobility operators gradually shift toward electric/hybrid rotorcraft, HHI can evolve into a dedicated hub for commuter-scale, point-to-point urban air services, corporate shuttle flights, and vertiport operations.
Tenant and service ecosystem potential: Given the interest from eVTOL manufacturers, charging infrastructure providers, maintenance and mobility service providers, HHI is becoming a node in the new UAM value chain.
Premium asset for enterprise clients: For enterprise clients and corporate fleets alike, HHI becomes the gateway infrastructure for next-gen vertical mobility—reducing dependence on congested ground networks and unlocking time-premium urban travel.

“According to FlyNYON, it chose the Alia for two main reasons. One is what it defines as "an ultra-reliable profile," and the other has to do with "exceptionally quiet operations."
-
“With its quiet, low-cost, and ultra-reliable profile, our Alia aircraft will help set a new standard in safe, customer-first operations as FlyNYON looks to continue expanding and innovating.”
