Roam the world, record the moments, relive the memories!
I was invited by British Airways i360 to experience their newly-launched extreme activity, the Walk 360. This is an adrenaline-fuelled walk 450ft up in the air, on top of the BA i360 pod in Brighton! Come with me as I take you behind-the-scenes, show you the incredible open-sky views, and how you can do this yourself…
After an early morning start, I travelled from London to Brighton for my adventure. On arrival at the private event entrance, I was greeted by the super friendly BAi360 staff who were dressed in the iconic British Airways uniform and they literally made it feel like a first-class boarding experience! After going through security, they said “this way to meet your pilot” which made me laugh!
Next, I went into the briefing room where the Walk 360 instructors helped me into the safety harness and ran a short briefing on procedures. The only item I was able to take up was my phone, which had to be locked into a clear pouch for the duration of the activity. I buckled up for the pulse-racing experience on top of Brighton’s most famous landmark.
I then boarded and glided up the BA i360 pod, admiring the breathtaking early morning views of Brighton and the coastline.
After the pod reached 450ft, one of the glass panels opened. I climbed up the ladder in between the pod and the roof, whilst clipped onto the safety system.
My first steps on top of the i360 pod, 450ft up in the air, were exhilarating! I saw Brighton and the coastline from a totally new perspective during the open-air 360 degree walk…it literally felt like I was on top of the world! I even took on the challenge of leaning back and spreading my arms out wide, with the south coast below me…
If you’re both an adrenaline junkie and an explorer, this activity is definitely for you! It costs £40 per person and the Walk 360 experience lasts around 1 hour and 30 minutes. It really offers you the chance to see Brighton as you’ve never seen before. For more information and to book your tickets, click here.
Thank you British Airways i360 for an incredible and unforgettable experience!
Wow, Walk 360 sounds like an exhilarating and unique experience on top of the British Airways i360! The breathtaking 360-degree views of Brighton must be absolutely stunning from up there. Walking around the pod while taking in the panoramic sights of the city and the coastline sounds like an adventure of a lifetime. It’s fantastic to see how Brighton continues to offer exciting activities like this, making it a must-visit destination for both locals and tourists. I can’t wait to try Walk 360 on my next visit to Brighton and create unforgettable memories at such a remarkable height!
