Premiere jet charter broker Halcyon is arranging luxury helicopter packages between New York City and the Hamptons this season via the purchase of a special flight club card. The trip, which can take up to four hours on the Long Island Expressway in typical summer traffic, is a mere 45 minutes by helicopter. The Halcyon coordinated flights offer high-speed premium helicopters with luxurious cabins -- Bell Jet Ranger, Long Ranger, Augusta or Eurocopter -- staffed with two pilots, and can accommodate up to four passengers. Their Southampton Flight Club Card costs $7,700 (plus fees) and includes two one-way transfers from NYC to East Hampton or vice versa. The East Hampton Flight Club Card costs $22,500 (plus fees) and includes six one-way transfers. With the purchase of a card you also get a bottle of champagne, a carton of strawberries and a Halcyon Jets' gift basket containing Keihl's sunscreen, Origins organic lip balm, a Ralph Lauren beach towel and a bottle of Evian Mineral Water Spray, so you're ready to hit the beach the moment you arrive.

We've seen jet cards in the million-dollar range before but the new $5 million card from Halcyon Jets is causing a stir this holiday season. What do you get for your moeny with the Holiday Dream Card? It entitles you to access to Halycon's fleet of jets for one-way trips or round-trip travel, for single flights or multiple trips. The press release doesn't say exactly how long the card is good for but we hope it's a lifetime use for that price. Other ancillary services that come with the card include your own private aviation specialist and personal concierge to assist with the travel, dining and entertainment plans. Jets in their fleet include Citation jets, Lear jets, Gulfstreams, helicopters and even jumbo jets from Airbus and Boeing.
