More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You climb into a two-person seat, the harness clicks, and the city of Orlando falls away beneath you as the StarFlyer begins to rise. At 450 feet the tower pulls riders into a wide, exposed arc — the wind forcing a grin and the city grid shrinking into a patchwork of lights and parking lots below.

The StarFlyer concept was tested by Funtime during the 2012 London Olympics and later installed next to ICON Park in a 2015 development partnership with Unicorp.
Conservation
ICON Park operates in an urban tourism zone; visitors can reduce impact by using designated trash/recycling bins and following site rules to limit light and noise after dark.

Secure loose items
Loose phones, hats and sunglasses can be lost at speed — use pockets with zippers or leave items with a non-rider.
Arrive early
Lines move quickly but wait times spike in evenings and weekends; arrive 20–30 minutes before your ticket time.
Know the health limits
Not recommended if pregnant or if you have heart problems or recent surgeries — the ride operator will enforce restrictions.
Plan transport around ICON Park
Parking and pedestrian traffic peak after sunset; allow extra time if pairing with dining or the Wheel.
Secure phone pouch or lanyard
Keeps your phone safe during high-speed rotation and prevents loss.
Light windbreaker
Wind at 450 feet can feel cold in spring evenings — a thin jacket adds comfort.
