Flightlinez at Fremont

So I finally got to do the zip line at night and it was soo pretty! I love the lights of Fremont St and the zip line just added to the experience.
It is CLOSED right now because they are expanding it and I cannot wait to zip line the entire street of Fremont! Not sure when it opens, but hopefully by this summer :)

Fairly impressed after our first go-​round on the Flightlinez. $ 15 seemed reasonable for the day time ticket. The wait was a bit of a pain… about 40 minutes on a Sunday afternoon. And the harnesses certainly welcome your balls (guys) with an iron fist. Once ready, stepping up to the tower and looking down can be a bit of a gut-​check, but you’ll manage. It goes away pretty quick once you’re cast off and zipping over Fremont Street. Surprising faster than I thought, and only picking up speed as you near the end of the line.
Bottom line… if you got some time to kill, and feel the need for speed, do it. Pretty cool experience at a reasonable price. You’d be hard pressed to regret it.

Ziplining is pretty amazing and doing it at 11pm across a crowded strip of people is even better!!!
Great experience. The wait is pretty long as everyone wants to try it, but it was worth it.

This is one of those must do things when you’re visiting Fremont Street. We live here but have never done it and kept asking ourselves why… thankfully we had family visiting from out of town and Flightlinez was on their To Do list. We went after 6pm so it was $ 20 but that’s pretty close to most rides in Las Vegas.
The line went quickly, the staff was helpful and the guys up top were fun. The flight was quick but fun, I did spin around a couple times but that let me get a glance at my husband and cousin flying down behind me!
There were some hilarious photos at the end taken by Flightlinez, but they were way over priced!
Who needs pictures when you have memories! Now let’s go have a drink:)

I’m one of those people that think I like to do daring things but actually get really scared before doing said dangerous thing. I knew before I came to Vegas that my #1 goal was to zip line before I left. Whether I would actually do it or not was another story but I’m proud to say I did and it was awesome!
They have quite an efficient operation going on. Come in, sign away your life, get weighed and pay the cashier. Take the elevator upstairs, stand here, stand there, put the harness on, adjust the harness, final check to make sure you’re not going to fall off, then roll. I pictured the «roll» part in my head a little different. I thought it would be more of a dramatic jump where I would be perplexed with life’s great questions just in case I died, but it’s nothing of the sorts. Once you’re on the line and the worker lets you go, you just roll. I was a little scared looking down and seeing cars on the main road, but that was the worst part of it. My endorphins were going crazy — it was so thrilling!
I did spend the $ 20 to go at night. I don’t know if it was any better than going during the day but it was kinda cool to look down and see all the pretty lights.
Only reason I’m not giving 5 stars is because of how much they charge for the photos. I never saw anything about it before going but I believe she told me that the photos were $ 25 (for two.) My pictures weren’t amazing that I felt the need to drop any more $$$ but it would have been cool to commemorate the experience.

Great fun so go and drop the $ 20 bucks!
You could sit at a machine and lose that much faster than it takes you to zip line down Fremont Street.
Go now!

With a fear of heights, just heading up the stairs made me feel my stomach flip. The staff were very comforting and entertaining. They helped me make that step off the edge, as I was beginning my descent down Fremont Street (backwards for the most part hahaha). The experience was amazing and I would do it again on my next trip out to the City of Sin. Thank you Flightlinez.

Located on Fremont Street, the cost to zipline is $ 15.00 during the day and $ 20.00 at night.
We went to the destination portion and couldn’t figure out where to go to pay and sign up. The employees working on that end were less than helpful, basically just saying it was «over there» …okay.
We walk over by the Aladdin Lamp and sign the liability waiver and head on up the elevator. The staff at the top where they strap you in was very cool and helpful. Once you’re off, the actual ride itsself lasts literally less than a minute but is a lot of fun!
So of course once you are unhooked and grounded, you have a chance to buy some pics of yourself ziplining. This is where they really get you. $ 20.00 for the first pic and an additional $ 5.00 for the next pic. So let me get this straight, the pics cost more than the actual ride? lol okay
It is cool and something you owe to yourself to do at least once, even if it is a bit overpriced.
4 stars.

I wish it lasted longer!!! …that’s what she said ;-)
$ 20 each person and then you’ll get hit up for buying the photos at the very end, just like at the amusement parks. Remember to smile and pose throughout. Not knowing that ahead of time, I went swinging no handed and got great pictures of the back of my head. LOL
What a great way to see Old Las Vegas on Fremont Street zip-​lining through the air at night!!! Good times!!! Hope to do again next visit.

Even though I’m terrified of heights, this was one fun experience with the boyfriend. I found out about it a year or two ago but never really had the time to drive out to Fremont Street and try it out. So a few weekends ago, the boyfriend and I finally got a chance to come here. Tickets were $ 20/​person. Check their website because they have variable pricing throughout the day. But if you want to come here at night when the street is all lit up, it’s $ 20.
Anyways, stood in a long line to buy the tickets. had to get weighed then sign a waiver form before paying. Headed up the elevators to the 5^th floor of the parking lot where we stood in line some more to begin zip lining. LADIES: Do not wear flip flops or a dress. You’ll regret it once on top. Anyways, got equipped and then before you know it I was above everyone on the ground sliding down. It was so cool and short! Once you reach the end, your heart pounds a little because you forcefully just crashes to the other end. They help you off and you take a picture and you can have the option to buy them once you get back downstairs.
The experience was worth it. If you’re too chicken for a real zip lining experience through mountains like me, then this is a good alternative. It was a highlight of our trip.

Man this was really cool. My wife and the rest of our group wanted to do it so i was down with it. Looking up from the ground it doesn’t look that high. I was saying to myself, «if this line breaks, no big deal. I’ll just jump on top of one of the palm trees and shimmy my way down or I’ll just land on my feet (I’m like a cat)». Evrybody else was all nervous but I was fine, until I reached the top.
After you pay and fill out your disclaimer you take an elevator up. When we had to press the 5^th floor on the elevator I was a little shocked (it just didn’t look like it was that high up). So now I’m up on the 5^th floor looking down nervously. But I already paid plus they had little kids (like 6 and 7 years old) up there. So I was stuck!
But it was fun! And it goes fast. Although I did see a couple people get stuck on their way down. Yep, seriously! They have to bring a rope to them and pull them in. Thank God that didn’t happen to me! I think we only paid $ 15.00 too.

Just like a lapdance, I got done thinking I wish it lasted just a little bit longer.
For $ 20, I can think of a few other things I’d rather be doing in LV.
But after finishing my ride on Flightlinez, this could be probably added to the list.
Although the line was long and there were a gang of people waiting to experience zip lining down Fremont Street, Flightlinez Las Vegas was very fast and friendly with their service.
Safe, secure and fun.
PS … $ 15 from 12p — 6p and $ 20 from 6p — close.
PPSS … there is a height and weight limit so please be prepared to step on a scale. But remember, no need to strip down to your underwear for an accurate weigh-​in.

Safe ride & not scary at all.. It was pretty unique to zip line over everyone watching below on Fremont street.. . I wish the zip line was longer though.. .
Before 6pm it’s only $ 15 otherwise it’s $ 20.. .
Smile for the souvenir photos at the end of the ride…
Great attraction.. I’d definitely do it again next time I’m in downtown Las Vegas.. .
Definitely a must try!

Cowaaaaaaaaaaaabunga!
Me: Can I spin?
Staff: No.
Me: Can I run and leap off?
Staff: No.
Me: Can you at least push me with all your might?
Staff: Okay.
Me: woohoo!
He only touched my back. Argh.
Despite being denied all my requests, I still enjoyed the ride.
1. Light as a Feather. Light as a feather.
As soon as you enter you will get weighed for the world to see. At least it’s not posted up. When I went skydiving they posted your weight along side your name.
The maximum weight is 250 lbs.
The minimum is 60lbs.
My 8 year old wanted to go but he was too light.
2. Bring an ID.
Even though your showing Grey hairs you ain’t gonna get the pass and go without your ID
. Shouldn’t you have it all times in Vegas? They’ll let you gamble but once you hit that jack pot. They ask for your ID in order to walk out with your winnings.
3. Sign your life away here _​_​_​_​_​_​.
You have to fill out the paper work and pay before you go up. For skydiving you pay when you set foot on ground.
4. Leave your belongings.
If someone in your group is going to be a spectator on the bottom. Give them your things. They provide a small bag to carry your things. The lightest person in your group gets the bag.
–no sunglasses — no cameras– no phones — nothing in your hands — even your flip flops must go in the bag
They allow you to use your own camera or phone to take pictures while your in line. But you have to put away all loose objects once you hit the zip line.
5. Let’s get personal.
They strap you on to a harness. I saw a handful of girls with dresses and skirts but they had that who cares were in Vegas mentality. Boys, they get close to your swimmers of life.
6. Say Cheese: D
There are photographers to take pictures near the end. Ask the staff where there located, so your picture ready.
Go with a group so you can relive the experience. I went with my dad and my husband. If you know someone scared of heights persuade them to go. Their jitters makes it more thrilling for you. Another person in line was pacing back and forth and spewing out profanities to his friend for getting him up there.
I had the Las Vegas Power Pass, this came with the deal. The catch for the pass is that you can only ride before 6pm. I watched people zoom across at night and it definitely seemed cooler. We were quoted 30 minutes and we waited around that time. I’m sure at night it’s much longer.
Cost:
$ 15 before 6 pm
$ 20 after 6 pm
Go again same day for $ 5
To me this is worth the try. But if your a lone ranger, the wait may be too long, and the thrill too short lived.

This is one of the coolest experiences in Las Vegas!
Take a night flight through the heart of Fremont Street under the light show, and it’ll be an experience you’ll never forget!
Thrilling! A must see & do!
So awesome! Well worth the half hour wait in line! (250 pound limit: $ 14 pp.)

Have you ever wanted to feel like Buzz Lightyear? Literally… you could go to infinity, and beyond. Especially when you are in fact buzzed and NOT drunk (that would be bad). To get there, ziplining across Fremont Street’s seizure inducing ceiling lights will do just that.
Fellow buddy Francis C. ended up having some free passes for us to catch a ride across this zipline. I’ve done ziplining before, but never one where it was over a crowd of drunken tourists in a city of neon lights. To say I was stoked is a complete understatement. There are a lot of ways to get reduced tickets/​free passes for the zipline, so be sure to ask your hotel or travel agent to see if they can hook it up.
Keep these in mind when you are preparing to zipline across Fremont Street:
1. Leave your larger personal belongings with your friends or in a locker. There are pouches provided that are latched onto you for your smaller items (phones, cameras, etc.) but there is always a slight chance it may fall while you’re riding down.
2. You’re going to be on your gluteus maximus as you zip down. Fellas, your package IS going to be a bit tight, so be ready for some pushing.
3. Avoid being smashed. You don’t want to projectile vomit on the civilians below you.
Aside from that, strap on tight and enjoy the ride. At the end of the zipline, a photographer will be there to capture your final moments. We had a ball going down, even after signing away our lives in case the strap comes loose. However, this ride is very safe, and is not scary at all. I think the swirling tea cups at Disneyland are more prone to sickness than this.
Make sure you get a friend to snap some shots while you’re going down! It’ll make for some epic Unilocal profile pics.

Upon arriving in Las Vegas and stepping out onto Freemont Street I was taken back by the people zooming down the Street at plus 20 MPH suspended by a cable, zip lining. It looked like a lot of fun.
Fast forward a few days and I was attending a get-​together at the Golden Nugget in one of their Rainman Suites when the topic of zip lining came up.
The decision was made and we were off to zip line down Freemont on a Sunday night about 10:00pm. We first walked in the opposite direction we needed to be, note the entrance to the zip lining is by the Heart Attack Café.
We arrived at the line only to find it wrapped around the building and were told that there was an estimated wait for 90 minutes. We said screw that and two members of our party began bribing the people in line with hard cash for us to take their spot. The winner was a group of 3 who were bought off for $ 300 after they waited in line for 90 minutes. They walked to the back of the line and we took their place. We were inside of the building within minutes.
The fee is $ 20.00 per person which is quite reasonable for Las Vegas and there were A LOT of folks in line.
As you enter you are weighed and you must be below 250 pounds otherwise you will not be allowed to do it. You have to fill out a waiver and have photo ID. Once that process is completed you exit the building and take an elevator to the 5^th floor (Roof) where you wait for another 45 – 60 minutes. Once you get close to the zip line you are placed in a holding area and fitted with a harness. Once you are fitted with the harness you walk up another flight of steps get hooked up and fly at top speeds the length of Freemont Street. You haul buttocks to the point the water is draining from your eyes, it is a lot of fun. I WOULD DO IT AGAIN.
The Flightline takes pictures of you as you zip down which turned out to be quite clear. I think I posted pictures but not sure which site they went to, I will have to investigate that. We all had such a good time and it was a great way to spend money. People will look at this and say it is too expensive or it takes up too much of your time but it is time away from gambling and you will place that same $ 20 into a slot and be done with the fun in just about 45 seconds, so do something that you will take with you forever as a memory=)

My cousins and I were stuck in Vegas during the holidays so we wanted to do something fun and different.
With a bunch of convincing (I’m afraid of heights), I decided to go zip lining in downtown Las Vegas with them. I’m seriously glad I did it because it was an awesome experience. It’s pretty cool because you glide through a mall type of area and everyone can see you. Haha.
Anyway, if you wanna do something besides go to a bar/​club… try this place out!

The sole reason for coming to Fremont Street, thanks to seeing this done on an episode of Millionaire Matchmaker. Even though there was a crowd of 11 of us, only my 2 daughters went on the zipline. I was super impressed by their bravery because while I was excited that THEY try it, I was way too fearful of it. Even my niece and nephews were too chicken. At least, I made use of my time, though… I stayed on the ground attempting to photograph them as they zipped on by. Unfortunately, to ensure I kept the camera lens on a large enough area, I ended up not getting close enough in to see the details of their faces. Who knew? I did have enough sense to put the camera on continuous picture mode (one after the other), so I got their bodies flying by, but I totally failed in the details department. I took a picture of their purchased picture. Yeh, I know, that’s cheating.
Anyway, it was $ 20 per person after 6 pm. I think going at night is much more fun because it’s all lit up. The ride is not long, doesn’t go real fast, but it’s high enough off the ground that it freaks me out. My younger daughter said she was terrified (was ready to cry, pee in her pants and throw up all at once), but once she got underway, it wasn’t bad at all (and she didn’t do any of the above… lol). My older daughter is as fearless as they come, and I don’t know why… or how… but she is. STILL not reason enough for me to try it. I’m just glad THEY did !!!

Omigosh, the scariest and most fun thing I have ever done thus far in Vegas. DID I MENTION I’M AFRAID OF HEIGHTS!!!
Like Nelson S. said in his review, not the best zip line you can experience but, for me it was the first step to bigger and better.
It’s cheap ($ 15) and it’s short (don’t ask me how long it was).
Initially, I wasn’t sure on even doing it because… let’s be honest, I was hungover from St. Patty’s night festivities! And I was more afraid of puking on someone below me than the actually heights thing.
But, when I heard the cost of it; maaan, I just had to do it!!!
The harness they put you in isn’t the most comfortable thing to get strapped into but, TRUST ME, I strapped myself into that sucker so tight that I prolly needed to be cut out of it… I take no risks: p
Btw, WEAR PANTS AND SNEAKERS (or shoes/​slipper/​heels that don’t fly off your feet) for obvious reasons! I should def take note next time because I was in shorts and clogs: s
The hardest part of the whole experience was standing on the platform waiting to zipline cuz you’re just standing there waiting «to be pushed off the scaffolding.»
Once I was air, I screamed like no other. Then when I was in the, actually, Fremont Street Experience it was quite fun where I was yelling for more =) Kind of like an amusement park ride!
When it was all said and done: I forgot I was hungover AND I wanted to do it alllllllllllllll over again!!!

Totally worth $ 10! I’m not saying it’s not worth $ 15 (before 6pm) or $ 20 (after 6pm). But with our $ 10 Groupons, it was a steal. I’m not sure if the experience is enhanced by the lights of the Fremont Street canopy. If I didn’t have a Groupon, I’d definitely try to go before 6pm.
The zip down Fremont Street is nice and relaxing. I would never say this is an adrenaline rush, but then again, I didn’t get nervous about skydiving for the first time last year. If you have a fear of heights, you might find it intimidating.
I ended up buying a few of the photos they take of you both on and off the ride. Just a word of warning: the photo quality is much better on their screen than in the print. They must have crappy printers or something. In this case, the «they» is Cashman Photo, so I can’t fault Fremont Street Flightlines for this.
p. s. I find it amazing that girls ride this thing in skirts and dresses. But honestly, who’s complaining?
