Helicopters by grandmaR
As we were leaving the Reunion Tower parking lot, we saw a helicopter landing nearby. I found that the Heliport is one of the great advantages of the Metraplex. Dallas thinks of itself as a city on the leading edge of intramodal transportation, but if there is one advantage that sets it apart from other large municipalities, it?s the Dallas Heliport/Vertiport. There are two helicopter manufacturers in the area (Bell Textron and Eurocopter).
I do not know if we saw a landing at the Dallas Heliport which is located atop the southwest corner of the Dallas Convention Center - I would not have thought we were that close to the DCC.
You can get Helicopter tours of the area.
The shortest tour is the 30 Minute Red Tour
$225 Garland Heliport, past White Rock Lake, Fair Park (Cotton Bowl), Deep Ellum, Downtown Dallas, Am. Airlines Center, Texas Stadium, Love Field, Park Cities, Back to Heliport
