    Why they offer this horrible helmet  and googles is beyond me. So horrible.
    Starr E.

    I personally did not enjoy the experience. I would highly recommend if you do go pay extra for the better helmet the helmet and goggles they include with the price were awful it gave me a Severe headache. I might have enjoyed the experience if I knew this fact that the other helmets are more comfortable and not super tight on your face and head. Disappointed I drove all that way for a bad experience.

    Very cool concept. I myself did not partake, but it was a birthday gift for my dad who really enjoyed it. The booking process was easy and they give a discount for military. The staff who assisted in booking and the instructor was very friendly. For family/friends who are not partaking they have a number of seating around the wind tunnel so you can enjoy the show and take some pictures! There were people of all ages and sizes and it seemed like everyone enjoyed it. They have plenty of parking outside and check-in was easy. 10/10 would recommend for a gift for someone.

    Oh my goodness! Super fun if you enjoy flying like a bird! Safe and professional. They educate prior to your flights. I loved every minute of it! A "PG" version to skydiving. Great for people of all ages...if you are in good health.

    Smooth process, easy clear instructions, staff were so kind, patient and overall amazing with the group of kids I brought! Even a special high fly thrill for my 9 year old!

    This was so much fun! The instructors look like flying squirrels the way they move in the tunnel. It will definitely take practice but I'd love to come again soon

    4 1/2 stars. Very cool concept that basically rally's around everything I believe in...family, Country, Freedom and adrenaline filled fun Veteran owned (former Navy SEAL) We made reservations for my 10 year olds birthday and were super excited to take him. We made reservations online and the process was very easy. The day before they sent us the waivers and we had them all filled out ready to go when we showed up. When we showed up we were totally taken care of by Christy who runs the marketing there. You could see the passion she had for this place and gave us a ton of opportunities to come back. We sat and waited until our time was up and our little guy could get his 3 minutes. The time in the tunnel was a blast. My 10 year old wanted another hour. At one point the lead instructor took him to the top of the tunnel (we paid extra for) which was super cool i highly recommend. 1/2 star docked for the 3 minutes, is seemed fairly short but what the heck do I know, lol.

    I came here with my step sister and pops. We got the 2 for 2 deal for $104. We got a chance to fly twice. The experience was exhilarating! We both were at level 1 and there are 5 levels. You can pay $20 extra to fly high. The instructor will take you very high. We didn't do that one. We were offered a huge discount to come back. I got the 5 minute/5 sessions deal for $99 and my sister got another deal to do with her boyfriend. Overall it was a lot of fun. Great activity to do with family members. There are several locations. Thank you Harrison!

    I don't know what has gotten into my husband, he joined my son this time at iFLY ;) I'm about to do another TANDEM SKYDIVING jump soon and my son wanted to go with me, but he is still a MINOR, he is only 14 years old. So I brought him again to the INDOOR SKY DIVING. Usually he practices a lot at the MISSION VALLEY branch LOCATION , but this time we gave this place a try the OCEANSIDE location to see if they are also good here. As far as our experience here, the staff are super Nice. My son doesn't have to watch the safety-videos anymore 'coz he already knows what to do ,he does this a lot at Mission Valley branch , but he still went coz his Daddy needs to watch the short safety-video for the do's and don'ts while inside the tunnel. As always, my son and now my husband enjoys iFLY and even better they love the HIGH FLIGHT! High Flight is done on your last flight , you and your instructor will go up a little bit more in a higher flight . The instructors here are Cool. I suggest to buy a Return Voucher, it gives you a discount for your next visit. And they also have souvenir you can purchase like shirts, hats and more . And also your Photo and Videos ( optional) are also available for purchase at the end of your flight. Dont forget to say Thank you to your instructor at the end of your flight OR TIP him / her . It is not mandatory to tip, but if you enjoy your flight and your instructor's company, reward them to show your appreciation and that you enjoyed your flight. So for BOTH LOCATIONS, MISSION VALLEY and OCEANSIDE, both are an AWESOME place to do your iFLY FLIGHT. Both have cool Staffs and instructors . When everyone is done , another best part of this i FLY , your instructor will do a little show inside the Tunnel . Your instructor will look like a Superhero Flying fast inside the Tunnel ;)

    We drive past IFly 5x a week and my 13yr old made a comment he wanted to try this place out, last year. I held off of purchasing flights due to the world's health restrictions and wanted to make sure that by the time he had an opportunity- it would be w/out all the craziness of the world. Today was his day and he was extremely excited. May end up making this a reoccurring active for him to include go-Karting. Upon entry: we were immediately greeting by the 2 ladies up front. I ended buying an addition to his already purchased flight to go higher in the tube; worth it. The facility was very clean and everyone was just so friendly. No pressure to purchase anything you weren't interested in and honestly it was all just a great experience for my son who had a day off from school.

    Great Experience and the perfect Birthday gift for a 10 year old boy. I flew out from Charlotte to be with my Daughter and her family and to celebrate my Grandson Zayden's 10th birthday. Had a great weekend and we did a lot but I was looking for something special and unusual for us to do. Stayed in the Holiday Inn Express and Conference Center on Palomar Airport Rd and on my first morning there, I spotted on of those racks filled with local attraction flyers and advertisements. Most of which I expected but one stuck out as a possibility and that was for iFLY Indoor Skydiving. Picked up one of the flyers and when I had a moment alone with Amy, my Daughter, I handed it to her and asked if she and Zayden might want to try it. She thought about it and while not sure how he would react, she said let's try it. He might be reluctant at first but after he see's others doing it, he would probably enjoy it. I booked reservations for two and that was for Amy and Zayden for three flights and the third flight was a virtual reality experience simulating skydiving from 13,000 feet, BTW, I was not chicken but had hip replace surgery 6 month earlier and still healing so next time. We showed up at the appointed time and checked in with no problems. A bit of a delay in being called back to suit up but I think the delay may be on purpose to afford time for everyone to have a great experience. Everyone is outfitted in a Jumpsuit. Zayden's was Red and White and Amy's was Red and Black. Of course there where helmets in case you bumped against the side of the tunnel and on the VR run, of course you have the VR goggles. The set up is a large plexiglass tube, probably 25 feet in diameter with huge fans in the bottom producing winds of between 80 and 120 mph. At these speeds and the speeds will depend on body mass and size but is more than enough to get you airborne while in a horizontal position. Makes you thing about the hurricanes we have lately with winds of up to 140 mph. Don't worry. You have an instructor in there with you and everything is done over a wire platform. He's Vertical so the forces of levitation are much less and he's there to guide and teach you. Amy went first and she enjoyed it. Zayden went second with a bit of trepidation but was OK with it. Next time both really began to get into it and it was really fun. Third time, Amy was OK with the VR but something was wrong with Zayden's VR and he briefly panicked but I can see why. After setting out a few minutes and being offered the chance to do it again without the VR, he said he wanted to do it with the VR and it was a total sucess. This was one of the high points of the trip and something all of us look forward to doing again in the future.

    Would this be ok for a person that has had knee injuries & is in need of a knee replacement?

    Yes, that should not be an issue at all! Wa always suggest that you speak with you’re instructor prior to taking flight.

    Can I bring food in if I'm just watching? Can I wear my own GoPro while flying?

    Hi April, We have light snacks in the vending machine that you can purchase. We try to keep the food to a minimum on the flight deck. If you wanted to rent a room for… 

    Are 6 year olds allowed?

    Hi Pam, Yes, we require that our flyers are 3 years +, under 300lbs, not pregnant, and have no shoulder, neck, or back dislocations or hard casts. It makes flying a great… 

    I'm okay with heights and fast speeds, but absolutely cannot stand long drops. Actual skydiving would probably give me an aneurysm since I can't handle big dropping sensations. Would I be okay with this indoor skydiving?

    Definitely! You enter the wind tunnel at ground level, and can stay less than 5 feet off the ground the whole time if you want! You'll still get the sensation of flying without going high.

    Is it just me or does the pricing seem unsustainable? How can a family of 3 (or more) afford to pay $80 per person as the smallest package? I really want to treat my family to this, but I'm priced out of the game. Am I missing something?

    It is definitely not an inexpensive thing to do! We went with a group over 5 and got a discount. After the discount I think for the 4 of us it was about $270. But it was a great experience and totally worth it. I think they have groupons sometimes… 

    I have 3 nephews, 17, 15, and 13. Would this be a good Christmas gift for them?

    Yes! You'd be the best aunt EVER!!

David was especially reassuring throughout the entire process, knowing I was a little nervous. He gave detailed instructions and was clearly very knowledgeable. Parking is available on-site, but it can get full and cramped. I parked across the street, where there was plenty of space. If your check-in time is delayed, they'll email you. There's also a restroom to the left of the entrance. Once inside, head upstairs to sign the digital waiver, then check in with the staff. I recommend bringing a bottle of water and a small snack, especially on busy days when you may wait 2-3 hours after check-in before your flight. Your mouth can get very dry during the ride up, so gum or candy prior helps. Lockers are available once your name is called. Come with patience- you definitely want everyone involved in the parachute setup process to take their time for safety. There are usually 4-5 skydivers per group. Once your name is called, you'll get fitted with your harness and then take a short bus ride to the aircraft. The boarding process was efficient. I was first off the plane, which gave me less time to overthink! The initial freefall is incredibly fast, so remember to breathe and keep your eyes open to fully enjoy it. David was an awesome tandem instructor, and I felt safe the entire time. I also appreciated the longer airtime to enjoy the sunset. The photos turned out great too! I highly recommend Gojump for their professionalism and friendly team.

    Torrey Pines Gliderport is definitely one of those "you should try this at least once" experiences…read more We came on a beautiful sunny day, and the flight itself was surprisingly calming. It's not like skydiving or bungee jumping where it's all adrenaline and dope. This felt more like borrowing a bird's point of view for 20 minutes. You're just floating along the cliffs, riding the wind, with the ocean on one side and the coastline stretching out below. The views are unreal. You get Black's Beach below! Yes, the clothing-optional one. And then farther down, the multi-million-dollar La Jolla homes that make you question your life choices. LOL. Depending on the wind, the route can vary, but that's part of the charm. My instructor was mostly quiet, which was fine, but I would have appreciated a little more narration or pointing things out. My wife's instructor, on the other hand, was much more lively and even let her steer the glider a couple of times. So your experience may depend a bit on who you fly with. Either way, the flight itself was great, and both instructors got us back safely and smoothly. A small side note: we saw the tipping guide inside the office only after the flight. In retrospect, I think we overtipped - but hey, the instructors seemed happy, so all good. Now, for the things you don't always see in the pretty Yelp reviews. Parking is mostly on an unpaved, bumpy, dusty lot. You can park on pavement along the side streets, but that means parallel parking and a bit of a walk. The waiver process was also a big "whoa." I've done plenty of risky activities before, but this felt like pages of cover-your-butt paperwork, with us signing and initialing almost every single line instead of just signing once and clicking through. Also, be aware that some grassy areas are apparently off-limits. My family and I were taking photos there, not realizing we weren't supposed to be, and we got shooed away pretty hard. I get that there are safety rules, especially around active gliders, but clearer signage would help a lot. And if there was signage, it was difficult to notice with the crowd hanging around Cliff Hanger. And yes, the restroom situation is porta-potties only. On the day we visited, there wasn't even water available for handwashing, so bring sanitizer. Overall, the actual flight was memorable, scenic, and peaceful. The setup around it is a little rough around the edges, but the experience itself is worth doing once, especially on a sunny San Diego day. For the views alone, it's hard to beat floating over the cliffs of Torrey Pines.

I'd totally love to come back and get more time in the tunnel and learn to do the awesome tricks Amberly showcased for us! Afterward we got to see video and photo of our flights as well. For $17 you can purchase an additional "high flight" during your time in the tunnel. After we finished up flying we headed around the back towards the pool area where across, they also have "The Bombshelter" which is a super cool little restaurant that serves a ton of different things to munch on! There was tons of photos of skydivers, and old photos of instructors all over the walls to look at and admire while you wait. The day we came was a day an event was also taking place for skydiving so it was popping and tons of people were about and diving so it was really cool to watch that while we ate and swam! Definitely a cool experience! My daughter keeps saying she wants to go again and even real skydiving!! Shoutout to Amberly who's such a badass! Keep it up girl!
