My family recently had an opportunity to try out Flyover America at the Mall of America. ThisĀ fully immersive flight experience uses flight-ride technology to take participants on an aerial tour of some of the nationās most popular landmarks and spectacular sights. Riders are suspended 10 to 40 feet in the air above a large dome screen as they fly above landmarks of the United States. Unlike other big-screen experiences, this one involves all five senses.Ā At times you will feel wind and mist and smell the aroma of the meadows and flowers. You’ll even feel temperature changes. My boys have been really into planes this summer, so I was looking forward to taking them on this ride. Unfortunately, only one of them met the height requirements, but he thoroughly enjoyed himself. The ride may have been too intense for a four-year-old anyway. FlyOver America is located in the southwest corner of Nickelodeon Universe in the Mall of America. The ride does not have age restrictions, but for safety reasons, all guests must by 40ā or taller. This review was written by Joy. We were provided complimentary tickets to facilitate this review.Things We Liked About Flyover America
