It went terrible. We had a ride scheduled for 11:15 and they had us go through the whole prescreening presentations all to find out the ride was experiencing visual and audio issues and we would not be able to go on our allotted time slot. They then escorted us out and was told to go to box office for a refund or reschedule. Being in town for just one day kind of cancelled out being able to reschedule for another time or day. And I have to wait for a refund for about a week. Terrible experience.

Flying rollercoaster of fun around downtown Chicago

If you’re good with heights and motion, it is an AMAZING experience and way to see downtown Chicago. I recommend doing Flyover after you’ve been around downtown. day or two so you recognize some of the buildings as you fly. The one thing that would make it better is if they had a little better customer service and communicated about the number of stairs or even verbally offered an elevator option instead of just ushering everyone to the stairs. There are already a lot of stairs in Chicago so taking what seemed like 2-3 flights of stairs (as in going down to the L) was a surprise. The ride made up for this. It was so cool to fly all around the riverfront and downtown area. At one point, I put my hands in the air because it felt like we were on a rollercoaster drop. So much fun!

Experience didn’t happen

The experience was terrible! Went all the way there for the machine not to be working. We couldn’t do the experience due to technical difficulties. Have to get a refund to plan for a different day. Upsetting experience

It was a very nice way of seeing the city. We did this after taking the architectural cruise so it was nice flying over the buildings we had seen from the river earlier that day.
