iFLY Indoor Skydiving USReviews of iflyworld.com

They screwed me over in several ways. Then after hosing me, the validation of my parking didn’t even work so there was another 15 dollars. They scam you every way possible. A bs origination.

I booked one full hour in the tunnel for one adult and 5 children . I was specific on spending the full hour in the tunnel . The person that booked this for me said yes one full hour ! Not 30 minutes for gear then 26 min to fly . It was all exclusive for one full hour in the tunnel, I repeated myself several times and confirmed that it would be one full hour in the tunnel. All they got was 26 minutes. So I called them to see if maybe we could get half our money back because it was over $1200 They said no sorry about the misunderstanding. I will never refer nor go to this place again .

IFLY FRISCO Don't go to iFLY in Frisco if you have a LARGE group of children or a HIGH-RISK group of children, and you are a NON-PROFIT organization. My agency took 52 children on Thursday, March 14th. This was out second year and second time to visit. Last year iFLY worked with us and ALL the children that we took were able to have the experience of indoor sky diving if they wanted, AND, we received money back for flyers that were too scared to fly. We chose to bring homeless children from various housing situations including emergency, domestic violence, and protective custody to iFLY again this year for spring break to get the children out of the shelters and build their confidence and self-esteem. There were multiple challenges along the way that were outside of our control - the school buses the district provided to transport the children arrived late; paper waivers and releases had to be registered under my name so as to protect family members anonymity - we had the paper documentation as backup; and, we had a large group of children of varying ages excited and impatient to have their turn. My first interactions were with Troy Anders who was amazing and went over and beyond to give the children the experience of a lifetime. I appreciate his prompt responses and willingness to do everything he could to assist us. Troy was my initial contact in making arrangements. Unfortunately, things went sour when he wasn’t in the picture. I don’t think iFLY really wanted to accommodate us. After being in touch with other employees, particularly Crystal Jacobs, the manager at IFLY in Frisco, it became very clear that she wanted to have nothing to do with our group and was rude and insensitive with our children. Crystal became angry immediately when we started to check children in and although 70 kids names were on the computer the computer said waivers were not complete - waivers which had already been completed by me. We waited for over 25 minutes for a decison to be made about our group as the children became, anxious, impatient and restless. Other iFly staff came out and the flyers were amazing and wanted to work with us and make the situation work, but it was clear that Crystal was angry and did not want us there. I think she would have been happy if we left. I heard the flyers suggesting ideas as to ways to work with us, but Crystal would have nothing to do with us. After 25 minutes, Crystal came out and said she would only let children that had waivers completed on the computer fly - even though we had 70 children listed and it had taken me 2 ½ hours to enter 70 names. She would look up a name and if it had a waiver, she would put a band on a child, and if a child didn’t have a waiver, even if it was a brother or sister, she would tell the child that you aren’t in the system, and you cannot fly. As you can imagine, children were devastated and didn’t understand why their siblings got to fly but not them. When I asked if I could re-enter and add these children, Crystal said, “NO!” Children were lead outside crying not understanding. There were more children in the system, but Crystal said it was too late, the kids missed the required training even though there were trainings every 30 minutes and other people, children, families were flying during our time there. When I asked about getting our money back, Crystal retorted, "You were late, and you aren’t getting ANY money back." It is clear that Crystal has no idea how to work with children in trauma and is lacking in empathy despite the children's tears. The children's spirits were crushed. I paid almost $2000 for 50 children to fly and only 24 were able to fly that day and no refund was offered and no one came to talk to the children. If you have a special needs group, a large group or a non-profit, iFly is not a place you will want to bring children expecting to be treated with respect and empathy.

Very expensive, you pay £58, for someone to hold you for 2 minutes, then if you really want to fly higher than 1 meter, you have to pay £20 extra, but wait, it's within your 2 minutes allowance. A rip off. Also the guy who do the highfly, is extremely rude, he passed by me, nearly knocked my phone off my hands, no apologies, just went downstairs.

Wish there was an option to give zero stars. This is a scam. Not sure why it’s called i fly as there is no flying involved. The instructor holds you the entire ride so you don’t actually fly.You are literally a few inches from the ground .They then ask you to pay an extra £20 on the spot to have the chance to fly for couple of inches higher for a whole 6 seconds. What a rip off. Don’t recommend this experience at all. It’s a scam . I am surprised there is some positive feedback. Must be from ifly team surely.

I’d put 0 stars if I could… To start off, I went to the Whitby location. I have nothing bad to say about the actual workers that I have encountered, they have all given me great service but as for the company itself a little different. I always buy group vouchers as I never go by myself and so I have introduced this place to at least 5 people which might not sound like a lot but if you look at the prices, I brought a good amount of money to the company. At the end of your flights the workers always try and sell vouchers with a “discounted price” in hopes that you’ll return. I’d like to precise that my background is French and so is my first language. The last time I visited iFly, I brought my mother who doesn’t speak English fluently yet, we had a great time and everything went well, at the end of our flights I was talking to someone and the employee asked my mom if she’d like to purchase vouchers, assuming that there was more than one flight on the voucher and had a total of 8 minutes of flight time, my mother had assumed the employee was trying to sell her another group package. She paid and sent me the confirmation email so I’d be able to enjoy it with my friends, when I called to book, it wasn’t that at all. Turns out the 8 minutes can’t be split between people and can be only used for one person. I asked the employee if I’d be able to pay the difference or an extra fee to be able to split the voucher between two people and apparently “no can do”. The only thing that was proposed was to buy another 300$ voucher for the person I’d like to bring with me, it is ridiculous. If my mother would’ve understood better and if the employee would’ve taken the time to make sure she understands what she is buying, she wouldn’t of purchased a voucher that can’t be shared especially because I was a returning client and had always came as a group. Very disappointing as I’ve spend more than a thousand dollars there, have always enjoyed this activity and can’t even get my time split or pay a price to do it, they just offer an option to make more and more profit off you. If I need to pay 600$ for 8 minutes for two people, I’d rather book myself a weekend getaway.

Scammy Misrepresented experience, 2+ hour wait for a 2 minute experience and website pricing is for a children’s experience according to the front desk. They refused to process a refund. Purchased the 2 flights for 89.99 each, two people, so 4 flights total. When we got there at 3:40 for our 4pm reservation was told they were running 15 min behind which wasn’t too bad. But then the attendant started to press us for an upsell saying the 89.99 two flights is only two minutes of flying total and the instructor only has you go hip height saying, “it’s for like little kids, I know it doesn’t say any of that on the website”. The upsell was another $140 for double the time and the privilege of going higher. I didn’t like the sales tactic but it was a surprise from my wife for my birthday and didn’t want to ruin it. Then they said the whole experience would be over an hour and a half. This is not in the details on the website. I figured 30 min training maybe then flight but not 1:30 total, not to mention having to be 20 minutes late and they were 15 minutes behind. That’s over 2 hours for a 2 minute “ride”. I asked if we just did the original 2 minutes of flying would it still be that long? Yes. When I asked for a refund because we couldn’t do it due to a scheduling conflict on the time, I was told no refunds. I just felt taken advantage of by the shady upsell tactic at the location and lack of actual prediction on how long it all takes. Now we’re out almost $100 due to their bogus refund policy. Picture of the details given on the website for what was purchased for reference

I ordered a special on line that included 2 flights each for two people and 2 days before my reservation they called to confirm and they only had me down for 2 total flights for one person. That's not what was advertised and that's not what I paid for. The only thing they were will able to do for me was give me a refund. They did not honor what they had advertised. I have been there 2 other times but I will not waste my time or my money again. This was to be a birthday present for my daughter and I to do together.
