The World’s Largest Airship Zeppelin “Eureka”

Completing an amazing line up of magnificent driving, flying and working machines from the 20th and 21st centuries, this year’s Pacific Coast Dream Machines Show brings the world’s largest Zeppelin airship for the first time to Half Moon Bay Airport for the remarkable show on April 25th.

	The world’s largest Zeppelin airship, Eureka, will be offering one-in-a-lifetime 30-minute passenger flights for $199.

Experience the spectacular surf and scenery and see the show from the serene comfort of the one-of-a-kind Zeppelin “Eureka”.

Weather-permitting, “Eureka” will offer 30-minute passenger flights for the special price of $199 during the show at Half Moon Bay Airport. 

Joanne Fedeyko, Director of Sales commented, “We’re working closely with the show organizers on logistical details to ensure that event attendees will have the opportunity take a flight that will provide a lifetime of memories.”

Over the past few months, residents and visitors in the San Francisco Bay Area have been thrilled at the sight of the quiet airship as it has been flying over such sights as the Golden Gate Bridge, Angel Island and the location of the Maverick’s Surf Contest in Half Moon Bay.

Alex Hall, CEO of Airship Ventures said “With Half Moon Bay being so close for us, and a popular weekend get-away location for residents and visitors alike, we hope it will be ideal location for us to stop by more frequently.”

Flying at 1000 feet above the ground and cruising at a stately 35 miles per hour, the view from the airship is memorable and unique. Passengers can walk around, open the windows, talk to the pilots and share their discoveries with each other about the world beneath them.
