iFLY Dubai Experience
Ever looked up at skydivers and wondered what it must feel like to float in the air? At iFLY Dubai, you get that same feeling inside a tall wind tunnel that blows air strong enough to lift you off the ground. The tunnel stands more than 10 meters high and pushes winds at incredible speeds. It’s safe, fun, and offers all the genuine thrills of a 12,000-foot jump without ever climbing above the ground floor.
Captain Dunes can even bring you straight to the mall so you can focus on the fun, not the directions.
What’s the Big Thrill Inside the Tube?
Here’s a simple look at what your time inside iFLY Dubai feels like:
- A real flying moment where the wind lifts your body, and you float without effort.
- A short training session that teaches you how to move your hands and legs for balance.
- A friendly instructor by your side from start to finish, so you’re never on your own.
- Small, easy tricks like slow turns or gentle lifts, once you feel comfortable.
- A fun high-fly option, where the instructor takes you upward for an exciting spin.
- A safe environment that works for kids, adults, and anyone trying it for the first time.
- A lively atmosphere where everyone cheers when a flier steps out smiling.
