If you’d like to try flying through the air with a safety net, definitely try IFly!!! It’s amazing! Gets your adrenaline going and it’s easier than you think. Do something a little different-and exciting!

Customer service was next level! Everyone at iFLY was so encouraging and willing to share information about flights and what I should expect. They took time to get to know everyone and I had so much fun once I was in the tunnel! I found it much easier to get a better idea of everything after talking to instructors who have been flying for several years than simply reading info on the website. This was my first time flying and it was such a great experience that I paid for the returner discount to go again in the near future! Shout out to Hank for being a thoughtful instructor and providing tips before, between, and after flights to help make the next flight even better!

5 stars to this genius business that allows you to learn how to fly! So, we were a small group of 6, celebrating one of my friends bachelor party and decided to give it a try. It was a great experience. Now, it’s not easy and if you’re committed you can get packages and learn how to perform. They have plenty of locations nation wide so no excuses. The staff from this particular location was fantastic, from reception all the way up to the instructors, they were super friendly and very profesional. I personally would look for some time to get back and try to at least be able to learn some tricks.

My kids love this place. We've had and attended several birthday parties here, staff is always really great with the kids, will try to sell you your next visit before you leave but with zero sales pressure. You'll regret not getting the return passes because they are a great deal unless you don't plan on being back in North Austin for awhile. The instructor demos at the end of parties are friggin awesome, I would have died at least twice trying some of those stunts.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

Why is it so much $$ 😒☹

It uses large turbine fans additionally the air in the tunnel is recirculated and kept at a comfortable temperature large Capital cost to construct and high operating costs but it is worth the price

What is a wind tunnel?

iFLY Indoor Skydiving - Austin (Owner) | Jul 6, 2021
iFLY Indoor Skydiving - Austin (Owner) | Jul 7, 2021

Very simply, a wind tunnel is a machine that moves a lot of air. A vertical wind tunnel, which is what we use at iFLY, moves air in a vertical column at speeds high enough to keep a person safely floating.

What is indoor skydiving?

iFLY Indoor Skydiving - Austin (Owner) | Jul 6, 2021
iFLY Indoor Skydiving - Austin (Owner) | Jul 7, 2021

Competitive indoor skydiving, also known as Bodyflight, shares many of the disciplines of competitive skydiving, such as formation skydiving and freestyle skydiving. Generally, athletes compete to successfully complete a certain number of maneuvers in an allotted amount of time. Athletes can compete as teams, working to complete maneuvers and grips, or as individuals. Each performance is recorded and judged by a panel of experts. If you’re interested, our instructors can help you improve your flying skills and take you to the next level of indoor skydiving.

We’ll help you with all the details, from planning to catering. Please note that there is no maximum group size – the more, the merrier.

What should I wear?

iFLY Indoor Skydiving - Austin (Owner) | Jul 6, 2021
iFLY Indoor Skydiving - Austin (Owner) | Jul 7, 2021

Please wear well-fitting, lace-up sneakers, or running shoes. Other shoes are not suitable. Wear casual clothes, preferably pants and a shirt without a collar. You won’t have to change out of these clothes—you'll put your flight suit on over your street clothes. Individuals with long hair should wear it braided and in a low bun.

Are there any flying tutorials?

iFLY Indoor Skydiving - Austin (Owner) | Jul 6, 2021
iFLY Indoor Skydiving - Austin (Owner) | Jul 7, 2021

Yes, there are. The International Bodyflight Association (IBA) has some excellent video tutorials. The IBA is the association that trains and accredits our iFLY instructors.

How long is a flight?

iFLY Indoor Skydiving - Austin (Owner) | Jul 6, 2021
iFLY Indoor Skydiving - Austin (Owner) | Jul 7, 2021

Each flight within the wind tunnel lasts 60 seconds and each package includes a minimum of two 60-second flights (turns in the tunnel). However, total flight length depends on the package that you choose. When jumping out of an airplane, the free fall portion lasts approx. 45 seconds. If you reserve a package that contains 4 flights, you will have 4 turns in the wind tunnel with an instructor lasting 60 seconds each. Some of our packages include double-length flights which lasts double the time at a reduced cost. The entire iFLY first-time flyer experience takes approx. 1 hour and 45 minutes from start to finish.

How does it work?

iFLY Indoor Skydiving - Austin (Owner) | Jul 6, 2021
iFLY Indoor Skydiving - Austin (Owner) | Jul 7, 2021

A vertical wind tunnel has fans at the top of the building to draw air through the flight chamber and then push it back down the sides through Return Air Towers. That leads to an inlet contractor that compresses & speeds up the air before it reenters the flight chamber. The result: a smooth column of air that enables you to fly.

How old do you have to be for iFLY indoor skydiving?

iFLY Indoor Skydiving - Austin (Owner) | Jul 6, 2021
iFLY Indoor Skydiving - Austin (Owner) | Jul 7, 2021

Is indoor skydiving scary?

iFLY Indoor Skydiving - Austin (Owner) | Jul 6, 2021
iFLY Indoor Skydiving - Austin (Owner) | Jul 7, 2021

Generally, no. There’s no jumping, no falling, and no experience is needed. You simply float on a column of air at about torso height of your instructor. There is no sensation of falling or anything that would make you feel motion sickness.

Can I fly with my friends or family members?

iFLY Indoor Skydiving - Austin (Owner) | Jul 6, 2021
iFLY Indoor Skydiving - Austin (Owner) | Jul 7, 2021

We generally fly several people in each session. Your friends and family will be part of the same group, however you will fly one at a time in the flight chamber one-on-one with your instructor. Once you have gained more flight experience then you will be able to fly with others of the same skill level in the tunnel. If someone chooses to come to watch, they are welcome to accompany you through your experience and can watch from the observation area.

Is it hard to breathe in the wind tunnel?

iFLY Indoor Skydiving - Austin (Owner) | Jul 6, 2021
iFLY Indoor Skydiving - Austin (Owner) | Jul 7, 2021

Not at all! It is the same as if you stick your head out a car window while driving. All you feel is the wind in your face. Just breathe normally, either through your mouth or your nose.

Is indoor skydiving safe?

iFLY Indoor Skydiving - Austin (Owner) | Jul 6, 2021

What is a High Flight?

iFLY Indoor Skydiving - Austin (Owner) | Jul 6, 2021
iFLY Indoor Skydiving - Austin (Owner) | Jul 7, 2021

With the purchase of the High Flight, guests are able to fly higher and faster with their instructor than they would fly on their own. The high flight occurs during the last 15-20 seconds of the guest’s final flight. High flights may not be available to guests that are over 260 lbs, or to guest with certain restrictions.

Why do I need to wear a flight suit?

Can I do tricks and flips in the tunnel?

iFLY Indoor Skydiving - Austin (Owner) | Jul 6, 2021
iFLY Indoor Skydiving - Austin (Owner) | Jul 7, 2021

Our primary concern is for your safety in the flight chamber so the tricks or flips are done by experienced flyers only. Some flyers are able to do turns, move up and down, and forward and backward during their first flight. Be sure to ask your instructor how to advance your flight skills.

Will I need to take off my watch and jewelry before I fly?

iFLY Indoor Skydiving - Austin (Owner) | Jul 6, 2021
iFLY Indoor Skydiving - Austin (Owner) | Jul 7, 2021

Yes. You should remove any items that might flap around or become loose, such as earrings, necklaces, bracelets, watches, rings, and hair accessories. In addition, you should remove everything from your pockets. We do have lockers for your use, but we recommend that you leave anything valuable at home as we cannot be responsible for lost or stolen property.

Can I eat before I fly?

iFLY Indoor Skydiving - Austin (Owner) | Jul 6, 2021
iFLY Indoor Skydiving - Austin (Owner) | Jul 7, 2021

Yes, feel free to eat before your scheduled flight session. You won’t get any feeling of motion sickness, nausea, or dropping feeling in your stomach.
