FlyOver, soon to be Chicago's newest attraction, is an immersive indoor flying ride that is set to open its doors in 2023. It may be a little hard at first to understand what the experience is all about, so here’s a few things you need to know about this unique attraction.
It's truly like flying
FlyOver lets you tap into that childhood wonder that is the dream of flight. The flight ride literally lifts you off the ground and gives you a flying experience. You're moving, rolling, coasting and soaring above and amid stunning landscapes.
It surrounds you
You're not sitting in a theater watching a movie on a screen as you normally would. At FlyOver, you're surrounded by the film. The dome experience, which includes an innovative projection system and a seamless circular screen, features some of the very best technologies available. The experience is in front of you, below you and sometimes even above you.
It's cutting-edge
FlyOver is all about smoothness. To achieve that, the mechanical technology, which mimics the free-flowing flight of a bird, must be exceedingly coordinated with the visuals. We have worked with the most advanced system ever created, and it has been refined to perfection. Technologically, it's a wonder.
It hits all your senses
FlyOver is an incredibly beautiful and moving experience. Of course, there's the stunning footage of spectacular landscapes, but it's more than just what you see on the screen. To further immerse you, FlyOver engages all your senses. There's motion: physically lifting and supporting you as you move in coordination with the way the camera moved when the scenes were originally filmed. There are tactile elements: smell and wind mist. This all enhances that sense of reality.
