Zeppelin's in the US

[Baron Hazard]

Does anyone know of a Zeppelin in the US as close to CA as possible that may be available for functions. I feel like there has to be at least ONE in the world somewhere but not sure about the US.

Would love to get married on it though... lol.

Which kind of functions exactly? There is the Zeppelin NT, which I believe has at times been in the US.

Might this be any use to you: Eureka is an authentic Zeppelin, built by the Zeppelin company in Friedrichshafen, Germany?

Quite so.  The zeppelin Eureka is San Fran based and they do rent out the airship for both corporate and private functions. Here's a thread from last year on what they do. markf

Thank you all for the quick responses. I need to look through them. I had hoped to actually have a zeppelin to have my wedding on, however it appears at initial glance, with no real knowledge of a standard zeppelin I let fantastical concepts of size and capacity get the best of me. Mayhaps we will have to find a more traditional (or at least earthly) locale and incorporate the Zeppelin tour in another way.

Thank you all! -_Q

The Airship Ventures one holds something like ten or more people, seated, from what I remember reading. If you keep the party small, that's probably do-able, if not necessarily cheap. I know some companies around here have booked flights over the Santa Cruz mountains or San Francisco as outings for visiting bigwigs, which I suppose beats the usual skybox-at-the-game routine.
