Blue Star Jets.

Aug, 2008 -

What: A charter helicopter ride to any Hamptons landing pad.
Port of Embarkation: Choppers head out of town from one of the city's three heliports: East 34th Street, Wall Street, or West 30th Street. It takes about 30 minutes to get where you're going.

Dent in the Wallet: Around $5,600 for a round trip-flight (but prices vary depending on where you're touching down).

Frequent Fliers: Hamptons Heli-Cards are available for those who often take to the skies. Prices range between $28,000 (for 10 one-way trips) and $82,000 (for 30 one-way flights).

On-Flight Reading Material: None necessary. The choppers fly pretty low, so gawking at Long Island real-estate pornography will keep you occupied.

Claim to Fame: Katie Lee Joel hosted the Blue Star Jets day at the Mercedes-Benz Polo Challenge, in Bridgehampton, a few weekends ago.

Bubbly Bonus: Complimentary Taittinger champagne.
