HELICOPTER CRASHED!!! My wife and I and two friends all almost DROWNED after our helicopter immediately plunged into the ocean after taking off. We sank into the water without air for about 30 seconds while we desperately tried to escape the fuselage. We struggled because we did not receive any safety instructions before the flight from the pilot (who went on to LIE to the press about the accident, falsely claiming we were somehow safely evacuated before the helicopter crashed into the water). Additionally, the flight manager encouraged us to take 2 additional massive, heavy bags that belonged to passengers from our another flight. As well as adding unnecessary weight, these bags made it much more difficult for us to break out of the pod and survive the crash. This is a horribly irresponsible company with poorly trained staff and a total disregard for safety standards. DON’T RISK YOUR LIFE - AVOID!
