FlyOver
FlyOver (Formerly FlyOver Canada) is an exiting Vancouver attraction that offers a breathtakingly realistic flight experience
Have you ever dreamed of soaring like a bird over some of the most spectacular scenery on earth? FlyOver, conveniently located at the Cruise Ship Terminal, offers an experience so real that it will almost leave you breathless!
Opening on June 29th, 2013 this exciting attraction, which took years to create, has become one of the top experiences in the city. If you have ever experienced the extremely popular Soaring Over California attraction at Disneyland or Walt Disney World, you will have had a taste of what this attraction will be like.
Strapped into your seat in front of a 20 metre domed screen, you will enjoy a virtual flying experience that explores incredible scenery from Canada and/or from other spectacular destinations around the world. All of your senses will be stimulated with the amazing 4D effects which include motion, surround sound, wind, mist and even scents that will have you totally mesmerized for the duration of the ride. The sense of actually being there is incredible and it really does feel like you are flying.
There are two experiences to choose from at any given time and new experiences are being developed. On your next visit you may be able to enjoy an entirely new show.
You can save money by pre-booking your ticket(s) online, even on the day of your visit. You can save even more per show by booking a double feature ticket for both of the shows that are currently playing.
When you consider the cost of a quick sightseeing flight over a small area in an actual aircraft, this experience is truly a bargain. On top of that, no sightseeing flight can offer you some of the experiences that are provided during this ride as special permits for low flight had to be obtained in order to film many of the scenes.
With its convenient location inside Canada Place, right next to Waterfront Station on Vancouver's spectacular harbourfront, it will be easy to fit this great attraction into your travel plans; even during a short stay in the city.
Other things you should know:
A discount is available if you prepurchase your ticket online. Fasttrack tickets are also available for a small premium.

Cool place but show was too short. We spent way more staying in a line than enjoying the video. However, I would still recommend to go and check it out.

Expensive but really cool. We did Hawaii this time and it was beautiful! Not long enough but ah well. Gift shop was actually pretty nice and has decent pricing. Cafe is a great value as well! Staff was nice. 😊

My son said it was the best day of his life and he was making forever memories. I really enjoyed this experience, And so did my oldest child and my ex. It was a really great time. The only thing is we would wish it would be a bit longer.

While the experience was better than I thought and I was really happy to have done it - still it's not a cheap experience - I rather feel their communication is somehow deceptive when they are talking about a 25min experience. It's clearly stated you have different phases etc but the real experience when you are seated and enjoy the incredible landscapes displayed in front of you doesn't last more than 10min. The 15min remaining minutes are spent waiting in the previous room standing with some imagery on the walls for about 10min (nice but nothing extraordinary) and waiting in queue while watching security measures and placed in your seats (5min). That's the reason for the 3* as it makes for a rather pricey session given what you get out of it - and it's not clearly communicated that way (I checked the website before/after the experience and it's vague, probably for the reason explained). I would still encourage you to do it once, and make sure to book in advance and online so you can save about 10$ on the whole thing.
