Floating holiday:
Zero-G charters
gravity-free flights
for incentive groups.
Want to shed a few
pounds? How about all of them? Las Vegas-based Zero-G (www.GoZeroG.com)
offers three- to four-hour flights during which passengers
experience a total of eight minutes of weightlessness without
leaving the Earth’s atmosphere. A series of repeated parabolic
flight patterns create 30-second windows of weightlessness.
Zero-G launched service from Las Vegas
in April at $3,500 per seat, but for incentive or team-building
groups, they will charter a flight ($115,000 for 35 people) from
any airfield that can handle a Boeing 727-200. Don’t expect bags of
free peanuts, but passengers do get to keep their flight suits.
