Pre-Flight Orientation
Welcome to Your Zero-G
Pre-Flight Orientation
Prepare to embark on the ultimate adventure with Zero-G! This orientation will guide you through the essentials you need to know before your flight. From safety protocols to what to expect during your journey, we've got you covered. Let’s get started!
What to Expect During Your Flight
Your Zero-G experience is unlike any other. You'll feel true weightlessness as you float freely in a unique environment. This section will cover the phases of your flight, including how to safely transition in and out of weightless zones and what to expect during each part of your journey.
Get Ready for Lift-off!
Are zero gravity flights safe?
Yes, zero gravity flights are perfectly safe. Not only are we held to the exact same Part 121 safety standards as passenger airlines like Delta, Southwest, and others, but we spent over 11 years receiving FAA approval before ever conducting our first public flight.
Now more than 20 years, 850+ flights, and 22,000+ guests later, we still maintain a spotless safety record.
How do zero gravity flights work?
Our specially modified B-727 aircraft, G-Force One aircraft achieves weightlessness by flying aerobatic maneuvers called parabolas.
The process starts with the aircraft flying level with the horizon at an altitude of 24,000 feet. The pilots then gradually increase the angle of the aircraft to about 45° relative to the horizon until reaching an altitude of 32,000 feet. During this phase, passengers feel the pull of 1.8 Gs.
Next, the plane pushes over the top of the parabolic arc and the zero gravity phase begins. For the next ~30 seconds, everything in the plane is weightless.
Finally, the plane gently pulls out of the maneuver, allowing flyers to gradually return to the floor of the aircraft.
The maneuver is flown 15 times over the course of the flight.
How long will I experience zero gravity?
Each parabola offers roughly ~30 seconds of zero gravity. Flying 15 parabolas over the course of the flight means you will experience around ~7.5 minutes of zero gravity.
What are the age requirements for flying with Zero-G?
We welcome all passengers aged 8 and up! Here’s a breakdown of our age policy:
Ages 8-13: Each child must be accompanied by one guardian. This ensures safety and comfort during the flight.
Ages 14 and above: One guardian can accompany multiple minors aged 14-18, provided that they can adequately supervise them throughout the flight.
Are there any specific requirements for guardians?
Guardians must be at least 18 years old and are responsible for the safety and behavior of their children during the flight.
What should I do if I have additional questions about age requirements?
