iFly Singapore boasts one of the world’s largest indoor skydiving wind tunnels, which means you get to experience true free-fall conditions just like a real skydive, at a fraction of the cost of a tandem jump.

iFly’s state-of-the-art patented technology ensures a high degree of safety and accommodates all types of flyers, so that the whole family (so long the kids are above seven years of age) can take flight together. Be sure to book in advance!

Flyers must weigh less than 120kg if shorter than 180cm, or 140kg if taller than 180cm and must be at least seven years old. Those with physical disabilities are welcome.
