The new-model zeppelins are also much smaller--246 feet in length, compared with around 800 feet in the olden days, and carrying just two crew members and up to 13 passengers, compared with a total of 80 to 100 or so for the big ancestors.
For now, Airship Ventures says, it has the one and only zeppelin in the U.S., and that's one of only three in the world.
As you might expect, flights won't come cheap--individual tickets start at $499 per person. (The glider ride, if I remember correctly, was somewhere in the neighborhood of $80. With the zeppelin, I'd be hoping for bit of legroom to go with the view.)
