While the line may have been long, this ride exceeded my expectations! It really makes you feel as though you are flying through the country and put a smile on everyone's face.

My husband and I were hiking in the Smoky Mountains and had no intention of doing anything like this. We went to the Island one evening just to see what Pigeon Forge was like before we left. The worker at the door explained the ride and talked us into buying tickets. I am so glad we did! There was no line and only 7 people on the ride, which was great for us, but a shame for the ride. It was so fun! I hope more people will hear about this and try it out. I have been on the Soarin Over California ride at Disney, and this is similar, but takes you over various places throughout America. You really feel like you are flying. For example, you fly over Niagara Falls and you feel the cool mist of the water. It is actually thrilling. I do not really care for most amusement park rides, but this type of ride is my favorite. It tricks your mind into thinking you are flying, although you really are going nowhere. I love it! I love that this a ride you can choose to do on its own, it is not a part of any type of amusement park. It is great for people who can't stand amusement parks, but want to try a fun ride experience. The only complaint I have is that it is too short!

Very enjoyable although very short compared to the time waiting in different areas being ‘prepped’ for the flight. Had to wait an hour for the ride and then about 45 minutes being inside various areas before the actual ‘ride’. It was worth the wait.
