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

Because the facility itself was expensive to build, the costs of maintaining the place and paying the professionals that make sure your experience is both fun and safe.

I assume it is expensive due the machine the company uses to produce the wind

It's simulated skydiving with trained pros. The first time is more expensive than the next time because you take a small class and get a certificate. Worth every penny though.
