Eagles Flight
Climb into a huge colorful Eagle and enjoy this classic “flying scooter” ride. Eagles Flight is located in our Fourth of July section across from the Revolution.
Eagles Flight lets you soar through the air as you adjust your direction of travel with the eagle’s movable head.
Tips for your visit
Use your bird’s head “feathers” as a rudder to direct your flight.
Want to fly high? Make your bird “look” out away from the ride.
Prefer to be closer to the ground? Make your bird “look” in a little toward the ride.
Can’t decide? Try both!
Have younger children board first, so they are on the enclosed side.
Ride operators will put two riders in each eagle.
Riding with a friend or family member? Take turns guiding the eagle throughout the ride or ride twice.

History
Bisch-Rocco flying scooters were manufactured in the 1930s and ’40s. Holiday World’s Eagles Flight ride was purchased from Evansville, Indiana’s Mesker Park, after it closed in 1975. Prior to that, the ride’s history isn’t well known, other than that it was “stored for many years inside a barn in Michigan.”
