The gift shop is a great place for Christmas presents. Try all things interactive. Kids especially like the 747 outside.
If you can find someone to give you a tour inside do it.. educational and fun and many places to take cool pics .. fun for kids as well .
Great and fun place. There is a drone simulation and stadium . They have a flight simulation machine and helicopter simulation model. Interesting history of flight and a women in flight section.
Get the family membership if you have young kids. Perfect spot to hang out on rainy days for an hour or so. For older kids, sign up in advance for their flight simulators .
