The only reason I give this four stars (instead of five) is that the "seat" card d***le f***rs have
to be cleared immediately after the trick is complete and they are clearly not inspectable. And, if
you've read my other reviews, I always ask myself what are people going to think when I bring out a
deck of odd cards and why am I carrying them to begin with. Plus, with the type of gigs I do, I have
to be very picky about how many "special" decks I carry. It's a well thought out effect and it works
really well. Alvo obviously put a lot of thought into this and created a very well made trick.

This is a fun trick that is easy to do. A bargain in these days of overpriced magic.

Bought this as I thought it would be perfect for a travel routine I'm working in. And it's a nice
idea. The novelty of the seating plan reveal makes it stand out.
But when you've gone to
the trouble of printing a whole gaff deck like this, why on earth wouldn't you build in markings
that allow you to present a revelation of destination? Craig Petty mentioned that he'd had people
ask why he wasn't revealing the destination and I've had the same question EVERY performance.
Spectators are underwhelmed. I was looking for something to lift my routine but this just makes it
sag.
It's also very weird to have printed the tickets on card stock, making it absolutely
clear this is inauthentic and "only a magic trick". (This is why it's important to study The Jerx.)

This is an awesome trick. Wish I would have had this last month, when I went to Thailand. Had 15 1/2
hour layover. Could have entertained some newly met friends. Highly recommend this. Very easy to do.
Price is right. I loved destinations. Too, by spooky Nyoman. Both tricks, compliment each other.
Very happy, with both. š

I work at an airport so this trick is perfect for me! I follow this trick with another travel trick
I do and it fits in great! Easy to do, quality cards! LOVE IT!

Great packet trick to add to your collection of decks to perform.
This might be good for a person that do A LOT of different trick, but I not that usually when i'm
not using standard cards, the tricks get less attention. Also since the theme is so specific, this
is not something you can get out anywhere, maybe for a thematic party or gig this could be cool.
In the same realm, to strongly recommend Card-Toon instead
Easy to perform, very original, surprising. Nothing to say against (but why are all barcodes on the
cards similar?)
In fact, a variant with just one flight but all different seats (and not only
middle seats) might have been interesting too.
Middle Seat is a great packet trick. You get all the equipment you need to perform a really
mind-boggling trick. No sleight of hand is required which is great for me as I have extremely small
hands and cannot do sleights with cards. The teaching is very straight forward and they give you an
excellent story and patter to use. I am now retired but when working I flew a lot on business so I
was able to incorporate that into my patter. Again, a very easy trick to learn and perform. I highly
recommend it.
