Response from Virgin Experience Gifts
Hello Karen, I am so delighted to know that you had such a beautiful experience at the museum! I'm sure having such a kind and helpful team assisting you made your time even more spectacular. It was so kind of them to take you on the flight early and I feel grateful that your wife was able to capture such a fun memory! Regards, Briana
I was originally scheduled for a ride in a WACO biplane but the first day was too windy so rescheduled. Second try - the plane was down with engine problems so they offered me a more expensive ride in the AT6 Texan at no additional cost. The trip was fantastic. We took off over Jones Beach, flew along the beach, headed north, flew over my house, west along the Sound, and then back south to the airport. The flight was smooth and the views were great.
