Zeppelin Airship Ride Over Los Angeles: A Unique Sightseeing Experience (2009)

In this segment, Dave Malkoff takes viewers on a thrilling ride in a giant Zeppelin airship over Los Angeles, offering a unique perspective on the city from 1,200 feet in the sky. This is the first time since 1929 that the public is invited to experience this type of airship flight, and it promises a smooth, quiet journey unlike anything you’d experience in a plane or blimp. With helium as the lifting gas, this modern airship provides a safe and serene flight, offering panoramic views of Long Beach Harbor, the Queen Mary, and beyond. The airship is equipped with comfortable seating, a spacious viewing area, and even a “loo with a view.” At $750 for two people, this is a luxurious experience perfect for special occasions like anniversaries, birthdays, or even weddings. Dave Malkoff provides a firsthand look at this amazing adventure and shares a personal connection to the Queen Mary.

If you look closely at 0:22 and 0:55 in the video, you will see Star Trek’s Eugene "Rod" Roddenberry Jr. flying with us, adding an exciting twist to this unforgettable experience.

This story aired on KCBS-TV in Los Angeles on May 21, 2009.
