What’s It Like?
“Eureka” means “I’ve found it” and from the reactions of our guests, that would seem to be the sentiment that captures the unique experience of flying on the Zeppelin “Eureka”. Others have described it as a ‘personal cloud’ or ‘knowing what birds feel like’.
For some, its much quieter than they were expecting, a smoother ride, more comfortable. For everyone, it’s over far too quickly!
Cruising at around 1300 feet, you are high enough to be non intrusive, but low enough to see amazing details. Your speed is around 35mph, which is a stately and serene speed to view the world at. Take off and landing are very rapid and you are only in your seat for the minute or so it takes us to reach cruising altitude.
Surrounded by huge windows, two of which open, and with the comforts of leather seating and an onboard restroom, this is a real skybox!
