FlyOver America

This was such an incredible experience! My friend flew in from Arkansas to Minnesota, and we spent the day at the Mall of America. FlyOver America was the one activity I knew we absolutely had to do—and it exceeded all our expectations! We had CBD gummies beforehand (highly recommend 😂), which made it feel even more like we were truly flying! The wait time was surprisingly short, especially considering it was the holiday season, and the mall was packed. If you have visitors from out of town, this is a must-do! It was the highlight of our day at MOA. Through January 2, 2025, FlyOver America transforms into a magical winter wonderland for the holiday season. Guests get to help Santa search for his missing elves during an exhilarating flight across America and onto the North Pole. This festive experience takes your holiday traditions to new heights! Holiday visitors will sit in a suspended chair, feet dangling, in front of a massive, four-story spherical screen. Special effects like wind, mist, and scents, combined with the chair's motion, make it feel like you’re soaring alongside Santa. It was truly magical! If you’re visiting Minnesota, FlyOver America should definitely be on your must-do list. The attraction is easy to find, simple to navigate, and worth every penny. Our ride lasted 20 minutes and was worth every second. Highly recommend for fabulous entertainment! Great gift date night idea! Pair it with going to eat at Cedar and Stone for a delicious meal and cocktails!! They also rent it out for business events team building and employee appreciation days! 5 stars!

The 'Fly Over America' is a Definite must see. You get to really feel the 'flight' in motion. It puts you right there, in every location.

We visited Flyover America in Minnesota for the first time with friends from Dallas, Austin, and Boston. It was an amazing experience! The 7D video was incredible, it really felt like we were flying over the sea and feeling the water. The technology blew us away, and we all left so happy and impressed!

Disappointed with Fly Over Africa. 3 main problems: 1) Way too much CGI/fake computer scenes and animals. 2) Flying through clouds/storms was fun, but the water effect is set too high and my clothes were damp after the ride. 3) The screen was also dim. Please replace the bulbs or turn up the screen brightness.

This is an amazing experience (so I was told)! If you are at all someone who struggles with motion sickness, I would suggest not purchasing a ticket or perhaps taking a Dramamine. I barely made it to the bathroom, and unfortunately did not enjoy the flight as I had to keep my eyes closed for 80% of the ride. My son and husband were in awe though so I’m glad they enjoyed it. Worth the money for a spectacular, simulated view!!
