Casars Entertainment Corporation, the owner of The LINQ Promenade, has announced plans to add Fly LINQ, which is expected to be the first and only zip line for the Las Vegas Strip. Developed by a team behind the High Roller, the world's highest observatory, the approximately $20 million Fly Linke features 10 side-by-side zip lines that allow all riders to start at the same time. The experience will be built at The LINQ Promenade, an open-air shopping, dining, and entertainment area located at the center of the Las Vegas Strip. Construction will begin next spring.

"Fly LINQ will further establish The Link Promenade as a must-visit destination, especially for the unique Las Vegas entertainment experience," said Bob Moss, president of Caesars Entertainment Corporation Hospitality.

Customers are expected to start the ride experience by taking an elevator that was designed to offer an open view to the top of the 122-foot launch tower at The Vortex at the LinQ Hotel & Casino. After enjoying The Streep's spectacular view while climbing, customers plan on arriving at the launch pad, where queues and equipment take place. Riders can choose to ride "Superman" or from a seating position.

At the launch tower, the ride continues east and moves 1,080 feet above the LINQ Promenade. Riders get off near the bottom of a high roller. In order to remember their exciting experience, guests can purchase professional photos in the air while wearing full flight gear, either individually or as a group.

Fly Link is expected to have two automatic gear search lines, which will allow it to quickly return gears to the launch tower and keep queuing fast. In addition, it plans to have innovative customized automatic riding systems as well as best-in-class technologies developed by global leaders in zip line construction.

Fly LINQ is being developed in partnership with Xventure LV, LLC, a company built by veterans of the hospitality and attribution industries, offering the most advanced thrill rides in the most exciting places imaginable. Xventure specializes in high-capacity adventure rides located in key locations in the city, and Fly LINQ will be the most ambitious project to date. Xventure will lead the development and operation of Fly LINQ.

"XVenture is excited to partner with Caesars Entertainment to bring an adrenaline-filled experience to thrill seekers at the heart of the Las Vegas Strip," says Joey Paulos, CEO and managing director of XVenture.

As project managers, Fly LINQ will reunite many of the team members behind the development of the High Roller Observation Wheel, including the Theme Development Management (TDM). In addition to High Roller, TDM's principals and executives have extensive experience in creating major theme parks and attractions.
