Love it here. As an aerospace major I love for this exposure to aircraft and military weaponry in the city. Truly a unique experience with one of a kind aircraft, a submarine, and space shuttle. Tons of activities beyond the aircraft like rock climbing within the ship. What needs a desperate improvement is the food. Very basic, and mediocre taste (Was disappointed by the Mac and cheese there personally).Overall, a must go, but bring a sandwich :)

The Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum was a nice visit. PROS: Lots to see, wheelchair accessible, close to various parking garages, public restrooms, food venues (limited due to covid), and friendly staff. CONS: Only a small portion of the aircraft carrier is actually viewable, Obnoxious security check-in, and children cannot be carried through the Growler submarine tour. We enjoyed the visit but weren’t blown away by the experience. Battleship Cove in Massachusetts is a much more enjoyable museum for the simple fact that you can see so much more of the battleship.

Felt safe visiting 2 weeks ago, physical distancing enforced and not too many visitors. Book a reservation time slot online before you show up. We loved the USS Growler submarine tour!

Well designed walk-through. Similar to other military ship tours, of course. If you have never done that then this is a good opportunity. I was more interested in seeing the space shuttle up close and was not disappointed. There is a large exhibit space in the ship which gives a good impression of the sheer size of the ship but I think that is better appreciated from the outside. The airplanes on the deck are also interesting. I did not visit the submarine anchored next to the Intrepid due to lack of time but would recommend you visit it based on my experience viewing other subs in the past. Friendly staff.

If you are an aviation enthusiast like I am this is where you definitely want to check out. The air and space museum is housed inside the Intrepid. On the top level deck there is a really cool plane called the SR-22 Blackbird. Be sure to read the history about it because you will be blown away when you find out what year it was developed. This is a great museum for our community and I think that it’s appropriate for all ages. We will be back

Fun for any age and worth another visit. I felt very important sitting in the Captains chair, then like a kid playing with the large mounted guns on the deck (although not childs play in its time) and intrigued by the historical presentation on the impact of space travel on every day life. The culinary /cake tour has a receipt on a chocolate cake, no big deal... However, a chocolate cake for 3,000 sailors... Thats impressive!

This is an awesome place. Go with plenty of time so that you can visit everything that they have to offer and enjoy it. Not great for brining kids under 4 or elderly people.

Iconic place in NYC. This ship is amazing with so much history! You can actually be inside a real aircraft carrier and being a engineering see this type of machinery is mouth watering! This is an amazing place to be! I highly recommend anyone and everyone to visit here to see this amazing ship!

A must thing to do in the City. A staple to the waterfront since 1982. Historic for the Intrepids role in history of the Navy and its longevity to the NYC waterfront. The contributions the aircraft on the flight deck, the Concord on the Pier & the Space shuttle in the pavilion on the stern adds further significant to the aircraft carrier. It also adds to the overall value and character of the West Side. Gift shop has a good assortment of gifts albiet at high prices. Typical security screening before entering. A good two hours or more is needed to take in all of the exhibits and helpful staff.

A fascinating look at the technology that has been put to use by our military and the some of the civilian advancements as a result. The Space Shuttle program alone has offered hundreds of products and processes that make our everyday life better. And who knew what it took to feed the crew if the Intrepid three meals a day. Amazing!

So much to do! Even with COVID, still super fun with kids. Good, 2 hour activity.

Great place to see and great staff but covid had interactive and movie closed or not usable

Im a pretty avid museum goer and Ive been to most in the city. Though this one is on the pricier side, its absolutely worth it. Its the quintessential dad museum. Unfortunately a lot of the interactive exhibits were unavailable due to covid, still my wife and I were able to spend 4+ hours here. 10/10 would recommend.

Its a good place to sightsee in NYC. This institute is very impressive and exciting to me. Particularly, I love seeing the real Concorde.

This is a very cool museum. The guides are able to answer questions give little bits of extra information. They did a Great job on sanitizing and they have sanitizer everywhere. We had food from the Cafe and the person who helped us was fantastic. Definitely great place ro visit and learn about ships and the Navy

Very beautiful museum for both adults and children. It is a fully functional WW2 American aircraft carriers that is now a museum full of airplanes. There is also a Concorde. Its a must for everyone that comes to New York. You can also take some pictures at the space shuttle

Few People inside. Some parts were close because of covid but the rest of the museum was amazing. I really enjoyed the experience. One advice: Try to arrive very early beacuse you can get amazing photos and videos.

Honestly you have to go see it for yourself! Educational and just an amazing sight! Huge ship, submarine, planes, great view!

Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum great place to hang and or take pictures with your friends. Its pretty well protected by the sun so dont stress to much on the sunscreen. Plus for grub just cross the street and there are plenty of food trucks, Dog town dogs personal favorite for me.

Great time! Low crowds, friendly staff with much to see! The cafe was NOT open as it stated on the website however we were able to bring our own food and eat on the pier inside by the concord plane! Inside one of the decks there is an excellant mini movie about the the history of the ship that made me cry! (Criers beware lol) The ship is a giant maze that gives you a peek of life inside a Navy ship with so so much to see. The captains chair was a fun touch and a great photo spot. ALL those historical planes are amazing up close. I appreciated the elevator that we used twice lol its great access for all. We also parked on the street on 43st and 12 ave on a Saturday. We got lucky

A nice place to visit. There is area for the kids to explore. Very interesting museum. It has a VR game and 4d theater as well. There are not included in the general admission, and kind of expensive ( $12 for the game, and $11 for the theater). Employees are not that friendly, nor welcoming or willing to help.

Strongly recommended if you are in NYC. Great collection of army. Especially the Enterprise spaceship and the Concorde were so interesting to see.

Worth the watch trust me the submarine was a dream come true I always dreamed of walking in a submarine and though its a retired one... Walking it was a beautiful thing to do

Great place to visit , many exhibits closed due to virus.

Unbelievable to see all these great machines and unique exhibits at one place in the middle of NY

Great day out. I would recommend the Concorde experience too. I went on the transporter simulator and it was good, I would have preferred the G Force but the queue was long and moved slowly. Staff inside are friendly however the security outside not so much hence only 4 stars. Gift shop is a bit on the pricey side too. Food is great though. Massive portions.

What an amazing experience. Situated on Pier 86 amongst the city skyline sits the USS Intrepid CV-11. This decommissioned aircraft carrier allows one for the price of admission to peruse at your own pace, a piece of quickly forgotten history. Where else on planet earth can you see a F-14 sitting alongside a MiG 21 and a A-12/SR-71? On on a carrier at that? If that were not enough, after hours of going from flight decks to living quarters, you can look at the space shuttle Enterprise, which is parked in the back. Want a break from the bustle of city life, and get a chance to touch a part of history without the massive crowds? Then this is your place to reminiscence about why we are free to do so today.

This was amazing! You never get an opportunity like this too walk around on an aircraft sub machine and boat / tank. All of the airplanes where up close and personal. The time that it opens and closes isn’t even enough too view the entire area since there’s so much too see! It’s extreamly impressive too see the big shuttle and space area as well. I loved how big it was there.The view on the boat was amazing too see in NYC as well. I’m very impressed.

I love this museum I had a unique experience with my boyfriend who is a future pilot, he was delighted with all the planes that the museum has.

This was a very fun museum. There was so much to do here and it is perfect for a family. You could easily spend a whole day there either just walking around or going on tours. It was cool to see how the submarine, ship, planes and etc. operated. Good trip for the whole family to go on. I would recommend it for a fun day trip.

I absolutely loved the place. The submarine visit as well as the planes on the deck were great visits.

What a great spot. At night if you are going for a bike ride the water and the lights are just amazing views!

A must place to visit in New York City! This museum has amazing things to discover for everyone! You can learn about history, there are four decks to walk around with very great activities. There is an education zone at flight deck, really recommended! There are audio tours, exhibits and guided tours! I just loved my experience there!

The Intrepid is dedicated to the exhibition and interpretation of history, science and service as related to its home aboard the aircraft carrier Intrepid, a National Historic Landmark. The Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum Combo allows visitors to explore Intrepid Museum, where you will be able to examine original artifacts, view historic video footage and explore interactive exhibits, as well as the Space Shuttle Pavilion, the submarine Growler, and all temporary exhibitions. Tickets may cost between $24 to $33. I recommend mainly because you can see historycal aircraft war planes.

4 stars only because we thought we could go into the shuttle. Nope shuttle is only on display. Orherwise the tour is pretty awesome lots of mechanical death machines of war and an excellent show n tell of technology and time. We loved the submarine most. Bring the kids or the old man perfect dad grandpa ex sailor walk down memory lane. And Ill change this to 5 stars when the open the space shuttle up to walk through.

The place is beyond words!!! What added stars was visiting here on Memorial Day weekend. Take good time to visit, there is so much to see that you may be here for over 3-4 hours. I salute the brave soldiers who served here. Visiting these places fills you with a sense a pride and it really wouldn’t matter which country you belong to, you will have a great time here. The decommissioned Intrepid and decommissioned nuclear submarine Growler should be top on the list to visit in NY. Enterprise, the 1st spaceship to orbit the earth is also stationed here. Imagine, you get to see a aircraft carrier ship, a nuclear submarine and the spaceship which has orbited the earth. Kids will have a great time too.

Really enjoyed my visit here, an excellent insight into serving your country at sea, in the air and in space. Excellent exhibits and information about the USS Intrepid and the other main attractions. An added bonus are the veterans who are about the carrier and submarine to answer questions and add a personal dimension to the museum.

Better get here early theres almost to much to look at. Practically sprinted through it to get my pics and ten times more I didnt share.The cold war/ USS Growler is a super cool tour (the submarine)The USS Intrepid (aircraft carrier), I only made it 2/3 way through it. But they have some of the original crew there to tell you about the past and this ship has a past. Picked up 2 returning space capsules was deployed repeatedly. Even had modifications over the decades.The Enterprise is another amazing history piece (space shuttle) I still need to Shell out the time to go back and read all the captions.

If you like aircraft carriers, submarines, planes, helicopters and space travel then this is the place for you.Great museum on a ww2 era aircraft carrier, the USS Intrepid (obviously lol).Great selection of aircraft including the one and only Concorde, SR71 Blackbird spy plane and the SPACE SHUTTLE ENTERPRISE. The ship has so much on it you can do and see in addition to the planes. Simulators, educational areas, learn about space travel, etc. Be warned some of these cost extra such as the simulator.There is also a nuclear submarine you can visit but he warned it is quite cramped and narrow inside so not for the claustrophobic.Disappointingly there is no cafe on site (hence one star off) which is an oversight considering you could spend hours there if you decide to do and see everything available.Early morning is best time to go. By early afternoon it started to get busy.

Huge remodel. Very impressive set up, handicap friendly which was nice to see elevator access to the decks of the ship at all levels. It doesn’t disappoint. If you want to do the interactive stuff get there early. We were told the wait was 45 minutes to use the tickets I bought for the Interactive Virtual Reality ride, so I ended up giving them away. In hindsight if I knew that I would have gotten there early and went straight for that first. Other than that everything was fantastic. The huge LEGO ship is a replica of the Intrepid from WW2. They had a movie play at one point explaining the history of exhibits and it really made you feel a deep respect for those who serve and have served this Country.

I went in the early morning avoiding the crowd. I suggest getting a Groupon discount. You start off at the submarine and move to the carrier from bottom to top. You should definitely speak to all the volunteers. They were once involved in the Intrepid. Take the time to talk to them and hear their stories! A memorable moment.

Enjoyable museum,best attraction also for young people,not only kids,but also adult will educated in this place!!!its a great experience to know what is happened in our world before during world War and we can compare for our present world and to our future being part of this world...that there’s so many people sacrificed and give their life’s for our world peace!!!and to be united in our time!and many things or study of historical facts are the most important part of this place!!! I can’t imagine how their life being a submarine Navy .aircraft and spacecraft controller...

It shows plenty of pieces like fighters and chopers, beside the whole journey inside the aircraft carrier. Old technology yet interesting.

I visited this Air and Space Museum while visiting the New York area in November. It is located along the Hudson River and well worth visiting. They have an impressive group of military equipment including an aircraft carrier and post World War Two submarine. There are also a number of airplanes and helicopters on the deck of the aircraft carrier. If you have never been on an aircraft carrier this is you chance to learn how large this key to winning of World War Two was. It is an impressive city on the water that contains thousands of sailors and was very important during the Cold War and is still very important. The fee to see this museum is reasonable and if you are a veteran, there is no fee. I would recommend that you spend at least three hours during your visit as there is so much to see. This included a visit to the inside of the submarine and also the interior of the aircraft carrier. There are also guides that will explain about each of the areas you visit on the aircraft carrier. Also the submarine has excellent diagrams about the history of this important navy ship and explain how they were able to save it from the scrap yard and bring it from the west coast near Seattle to its final resting place here in New York City. I can not recommend a visit to this museum enough. As an American we have all paid for each of these military items and they are one of the reasons that we are a great country and survive in a world full of challenges for a democracy.

This Museum was amazing!!! Some great technology and some really amazing things you will never see regularly. I am very happy we came here. The experience was unreal

Im not only a Navy Vet but also a Submarine Vet, so Im biased. This was a great experience. VETS: BRING PROOF YOURE A VET. ADMISSION IS FREE! Submarine Sailors: in case you dont know: theres a Boat here: the Growler (ex-USS) SS-577. Great tour guides, especially Bil Peters aboard the Growler. I also loved walking around the space shuttle Enterprise and the Shuttle displays. But my favorite was the Submarine.

Aircraft carrier was great but some of the planes (especially on the flight deck) were not in good condition. Submarine was very nice--go for that exhibit first since it backs up when theres a crowd. Allow 2-3 hours to cover the entire attraction.

Visited here many times when my daughter is young. Today, I finally see the famous space shuttle ,Enterprise! So amazing!

Amazing place!!! They have a space shuttle, a submarine, world record setting Concord, spy planes, etc, all on top of a retired aircraft carrier!Worth a visit for everyone, not just aficionados of fighter jets. We spent literally 6 hours here and didn’t once get bored.The museum does a great job including educational info about the planes, the ship, submarines, and their roles in different wars and throughout history.They also have a bunch of veterans there who help with tours and sharing real life stories about their experiences on the intrepid, in submarines, etc. Really amazing to be able to hear first hand about their lives, and to thank them for their service.You can do “the concord experience” where you pay an extra $7 or so to sit inside the concord jet and see the cockpit, very cool. That particular plane flew from New York to London in less than 3 hours!Go on a sunny day and from the top deck of the ship you get great views of midtown as an added bonus.

What a great museum! We had a great time walking around and looking at all the kit on board. It was also mega to be able to walk through two real life war time vessels.Accessibility is good, Facilites are good.

An interesting place for avgeeks. They have many beautiful airplanes but the price is quite high. You have to pay additionally for visiting the Concorde or submarine.

Very good to view old aircraft, just be warned its obviously going to be cold during spring and winter so dress up well to keep warm!Each individual part of the museum is highly recommended, especially the submarine. Theyve currently got a piece on loan too in the space part of the museum.

When I went on vacation from florida, I visited this place it is an amazing experience. you get to be on a decommissioned ship as well as all the planes that were used in various wars. I know you would all enjoy it, like i did. :)

Always a great way to spend the day by yourself or with the family. Tour the only missile submarine the public is allowed on, the Intrepid carrier itself, the Space Shuttle Enterprise, and the Concorde... all on the pier with a great view of Manhattan and the river.

Great monument to those who server the country with some special equipment. Concorde. SR-71. F/A 18 Hornet. Especially Space Shuttle Enterprise. For sure one of the best exhibit I have ever visited around the world. Also dont miss the submarine which is located just next to it. Use your New York Pass and you will safe a lot of money.

Great museum, aircraft carrier. The aircraft carriers interior is on display, and there are many aircraft on board. You can also see the submarine. You can see a lot of airlines, including Concorde. You can discover a lot of amazing things, a lot of history. The museum is very instructive. The staff is friendly and informative. There is also a wonderful souvenir shop.

This is so much more than a museum. This is living history. Many of the exhibits are kid friendly and allow for photographing kids in cockpits, authentic bunks etc.Theres options for kids to send messages in morse via light or sound. The 4D cinema is an optional extra and probably not worth worrying about.The museum has a lot of great exhibits including the Enterprise space shuttle, the Concorde and the Growler submarine as well as the intrepid herself and a plethora of amazing aircraft.Much of the museum is disabled-friendly but parts of the ship and submarine require a level of dexterity to traverse.

We did the right choice! My father enjoyed this museum a lot. We spent many hours without boring moment.

Real good place learnt a lot about aircraft carrier operation and a fantastic day out for the whole family including the enterprise space shuttle but definitely recommend if you’re in New York

Good museum and history. Need a good time to see everything. A fun day trip. The exhibits are educational. Loved to see the Spaceship Explorer and also F14 and Stealth Bomber. The backdrop against West Side NY is spectacular. Amazing to see that it is an entire small City that exists in the ship.

Visitors to the Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum can experience a legendary aircraft carrier, the first space shuttle, the world’s fastest jets, and a Cold War-era submarine. Welcoming more than a million visitors a year, the museum employs history and technology to inspire and advance innovation by developing the next generation of leaders in science, technology, engineering, and math.  The former aircraft carrier USS Intrepid was launched in 1943 and fought in World War II, surviving five kamikaze attacks and one torpedo strike. The ship later served in the Cold War and the Vietnam War. It was decommissioned in 1974, and today is berthed on the Hudson River. You get the chance to visit 4 decks of this great ship. The Shuttle Pavilion shows Enterprise, the prototype NASA orbiter that paved the way for the space shuttle program. Dynamic exhibit zones feature original artifacts, photographs, audio, and films that immerse visitors in the science and history of Enterprise and the space shuttle era. Growler first opened at the Intrepid Museum in 1989 and is the only American strategic missile submarine open to the public. In The Skies guides tour, you will learn about the history of Intrepid from 1943 to 1974 and beyond. Explore the hangar deck, where aircraft were maintained and stored, and the flight deck, where thousands of aircraft were launched, and hear stories from the ship’s history. Choose the tour of the Concorde to take off on a unique exploration of the Concorde, the fastest commercial aircraft to cross the Atlantic Ocean. This tour offers guests the rare opportunity to enjoy the comfort of the Concorde’s first-class cabin and get an up-close look inside its sophisticated flight deck. Recommended for ages 10+. Visitors younger than five will not be permitted on this tour. Multilingual Audio Tours available onsite in English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Japanese and Chinese. These Audio Tours immerse you in the Intrepid adventure. As you walk the ship, hear from the pilots and crew members who were here during her greatest days. All bags and/or camera cases will be inspected prior to entering the Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum. Personal wheelchairs and traditional electric assistance scooters are welcome at the museum. Please note that there are areas of the museum that are not wheelchair accessible, as they require guests to navigate stairs and ladders, and there can be long periods of walking & standing. An unforgettable experience for all ages!

Good thing to go there you will see something you never seen before

Great historical site with accurate information

Very cool place, nice location and easy access. A great spot for enthusiasts. They feature an extensive collection of military aircraft and equipment. Most areas of the carrier are accessible and there’s also a submarine and a Concorde for you to visit.The space shuttle enterprise has its own pavilion, a huge exhibit dedicated to space travel and the shuttle program.Worth a visit when in NYC.

An overall great experience. The interactive rides make it a good place to bring kids as well.

We had attended a camp-in for Cub scouts entitled Operation Slumber. Various packs gather to spend a night on the ship. Unfortunately, they shut the 4-D ride before the end time. Then, they had the nerve to tell me to pay $11 on the following day if we wanted to experience the attraction. Just very rude! No paper towels in ANY of the bathrooms. The temperature was either extremely warm or extremely cold. Not happy with the experience considering the amount of money we spent for the VIP experience. The only positive was our awesome tour guide. He knew his stuff and interacted with the kids in a great way.

Incredible layout, lots of intriguing and conversational information present.

Really entertaining tourist location! I enjoyed the Space Shuttle exhibit and exploring the various decks. Make sure to pack warm clothing if youre going in the winter since it can get pretty windy on the top deck!

This museum was awesome! My main reason for visiting was to experience the Concorde inside out but seeing the space shuttle up close as well as the inside of the Growler submarine and the Intrepid aircraft carrier and a few dozen other aircraft made this an amazing day. The people working there including veterans and guides make the experience that much more interesting and special. We met a lot of amazing people that day and I will remember my visit to this beautiful museum forever.

Great Museum with so much to do both for adults and kids. The ex servicemen situated around the exhibits have a wealth of knowledge about the ship submarine and aircraft. They are all approachable really friendly and willing to share their experiences. It’s a shame that many of the aircraft which require private funding have seen better days but none the less seeing the SR71 in whatever condition is special. The Space Shuttle Enterprise steals the show.Cost of entry to all the exhibits is very reasonable for a really enjoyable day out.

Good place and many things are there what we are making entertaining and natural sources are there where we should maintain the restricted useful thingsthe plastic is useful but we must make as human restriction and many such things are like this where we must personally maintain thank-you and make better worldAnd save planet where our next next next generation can live as we llive

Interesting exhibits on military history and equipment. Space Shuttle Enterprise. USS Growler submarine. School and Homeschool tours.

This is another great place to visit if you are interested in aerospace and they have a real space shuttle on board!!! We used our New York Pass and was straight into security for a bag check.Once on board there are loads of things to do on this magnificent ship.

This is a fantastic museum with lots of great airplanes to view. It was really interesting to see the size of an aircraft carrier firsthand. Would definitely recommend this place. They have a program to let veterans in for free.

It was really cool to visit this museum, especially now. No crowds, and you basically have the place to yourself, besides the staff hahaha.

We absolutely loved our visit to this location. Military and ex-military receive a free pass. There is so much to see aboard these two vessels. We did have to wait in line for a bit. But we did not mind, as it was as May, sunny, and it had been a long winter.You must be able to walk and go up and down stairs for the submarine.There are guides along the way to talk with who are incredibly knowledgeable.Plan a few hours to enjoy seeing everything.

Huge museum of American military history situated on the aircraft carrier. Unfortunately due to COVID emergency submarine and some other places was closed.

Not bad museum but you feel like it could be much better. Space shuttle pavilion is quite boring. Being a prototype space shuttle Enterprise does not impress as Atlantis at KSC does. If you’ve ever been to KSC don’t go to space shuttle pavilion here unless you want to waste your time.

Wonderful place for plane and sea geeks - all ages. Loved it. I am glad I purchased audio guide - learned a lot. What I did not expect to see there is an actual submarine. It was an additional treat for me. Anyway, highly recommend!

Had a great time there seeing all of the airplanes and the ship itself. The NASA exhibit was definitely a wow for me as seeing something like that up close makes you think. Overall a good museum for anyone with a love of aviation and naval trivia. My only gripe is that when it started to rain, at closing time, they were not really prepared for the crowds that were waiting out the rain, in the doorway. Although they had ponchos and umbrellas for sale, they were priced high for something disposable, and there wasnt enough to meet the needs of the crowd. Other than that, everything was great.

Large museum spread across multiple deck levels of an older air craft carrier. Plenty of war history, aviation facts, and aeronautical wonder can be found here.Just the experience of being on an aircraft carrier was pretty cool. Though being an old ship it lacked sufficient air conditioning on several of its exhibits such as on the bridge/control deck.About half of the exhibits were targeted towards kids, the remaining for adults or kids making for a good mix for families. Will visit again with kids someday.

Beautiful place, a huge amount of aircraft and amazing museum. The staff there was very nice and explained anything my brother didn’t know about! One of the Concordes and the space shuttle enterprise is there, which makes the experience all the better! I really loved this museum and would go again. I would overall recommend it if you’ve got an hour or so in NYC and are looking for something that won’t be very crowded.

Very interesting with tons of history and interesting vehicles, they got a Concorde and a Space Shuttle, although because of the pandemic some of the interactive displays are out of order

I visited the Intrepid museum after many decades during Memorial weekend Fleet week. There were many activities going on for families. I spoke to the soldiers and they were informative about the equipment they work with everyday. Went inside the submarine and went to see the NASA Rocket exhibition this was amazing. My visit was short since we arrived a bit late. Will return, maybe with my class.

Loved this place. Anyone who loves aeroplanes will love it! You get go inside the vessel and check out the quarters. We also got to talk to one of the folks who was in the submarine. There is a lot of walking up and down stairs involved and limited elevators. The view from the top of the ship offers a nice view of the skyline as well.

Great place to visit...an actual Aircraft Carrier, Submarine and a Space Shuttle....spent most of the day here! The only negative was the selection of food in cafes. Eat before or after your visit. LOVED IT! Def worth the guided tour!

I visited the Intrepid in January. We prebooked our tickets and were surprised at the queue we had to get into. Another queue alongside us appeared to have priority so not sure how that worked?We eventually got in and started looking at the planes on the flight deck of the intrepid. They have some interesting planes and helicopters positioned there. At the seaward end they have the space exhibition which is housed in a building placed on top of the deck. Inside this building is what I guess a lot of people want to see - the Space Shuttle. It was a lot bigger than I expected. This was especially so when you saw the Russian space vehicle which was incredibly small in contrast.A visit up to the bridge was followed by a visit to the storage deck which has been converted into a great exhibition area with one area where children can actually get to experience things like the sleeping arrangements on a submarine or working the controls on a helicopter. Really educational.Amazing museum must visit.

This is an amazing place to take your family for some weekend fun.I gained entry to this museum by redeeming or retrieving a culture pass reservation. These reservations are available to anyone who has a library card. All you have to do is go on the culture pass website , select your library branch and then enter your library card is number and your password .Afterward you choose a museum that you want to attend and reserve your tickets . Tickets are accepted either be printed out or in digital form. There is a separate line for culture pass users so keep that in mind as well.Now to explain my experience at this museum I would say that I had a great time . There are 3 virtual reality rides that are about $11.00 a person. I would suggest that you try all three of these VR experiences because they will enhance your experience.As for the museum itself ..... it’s pretty cool. There is a lot of ground to cover so wear comfortable shoes . Also , prepare to get your feet stepped on and get skipped in line by little children who are super excited to explore the museum .The bathrooms are kind of clean, but I blame the people who use the bathroom and don’t clean after themselves , not the workers . People are nasty !All in all I had fun , but I probably won’t need to return to this museum for a few years.

Dont miss it if at all interested in aviation. Superb and surprisingly rich collection including the SR71 and space shuttle among many, many other aircraft.

We spent around 4 hours here having a great time. All the exhibits, right from the aircraft carrier itself to the Growler submarine, to the many planes on the deck, the space shuttle to the Concorde, the interactive gallery, interaction with ex servicemen, everything was fun and insightful. Kids enjoyed the whole thing a lot.

I had a great time at this museum - there’s different sections and each has its own unique experience to offer. I personally really enjoyed the submarine experience cause it gives you a great idea of life in the sub. A lot will require you to be outdoors so warm weather makes it pretty rough when touring the ship. Definitely worthwhile experience

This is a fun museum, and can occupy several hours during your visit to New York. The growler and the Concorde were two of my favourite things to experience during this visit. I would highly recommend paying the extra and taking this tour. There are 4 simulators as well, but 3 were a bit lame. 1 of them is a really cool experience.

From Intrepid aircraft you could see aerospace craft, submarine and many kinds of airplanes，it is big collection of human made machines.

Intrepid was a great museum for lovers of military history; specifically the navy and the air force. Being able to stand on a real aircraft carrier that saw service, while learning about its history and how it works, was an awesome experience that I had been looking forward to for a while. Theyve got an exhibit on the Enterprise Space Shuttle, as well as many USAF and USN aircraft on the flight deck.

Surprisingly impressive! I had been told by some that this would be a boring experience, but it was FAR from that.A superb insight into American and other nations Naval and Air Force history. The submarine was particularly impressive and a very unique experience to walk around.

A very interesting museum, you can not miss it if you are visiting NYC. Also you will love it no matter your age. If you are claustrophobic I tell you that you may not enjoy it as much as the biggest attraction is inside the boat and a submarine and I do not think its to your liking. If you do not mind being in narrow places, you will enjoy it.

This is an awesome museum! Especially if you love military aircraft, or even commercial aircraft with the Concord being there!Overall the experience here was awesome!Going through the submarine Is really cool!And then getting to get up close to the Concord is awesome too!And then Intrepid itself is the best!We went on to one of the simulators which was a blast!And also got to go and see The planetarium show too!One of the biggest highlights for me on the ship is the small historical shows that happened in the middle of the ship.It gets you to feel so involved in what happened! Especially when they go into the details of you being stood in the exact place where certain things happened!Highly recommend this place! But get there early as you will suddenly here the call that they are closing and you realise youve managed to spend the whole day there. But its definitely worth it!

Great displays and educational material for the ship in the hangar deck. Cool planes on the flight deck though some are in need of some refurbishment. Space shuttle Enterprise is a nice display even if it is just an approach and landing test vehicle not a flown in space shuttle

Great. Had not been there in a a while.

Outstanding. The museum is impressive, most of the collection is painstakingly restored and maintained. Totally worthy and a must for every NYC visitor.
