For 1–5 flyers, arrive 20 minutes before your flight time. For groups of 6 or more, arrive 30 minutes before.

Your experience starts right at your reservation time. We run on a tight 30-minute schedule, so late arrivals can’t be accommodated and will need to rebook.

In more than 10 years of flying guests from all over the world, we’ve learned that people underestimate how long it takes to get everyone together, beat traffic (and the Bay Bridge Tunnel), find parking, make a bathroom stop, sign waivers, and ask questions. Whew!

Training only happens on the half hour, so arriving early guarantees your party is ready. It’s also a courtesy to the other families flying after you.

If you arrive late, we’ll need to reschedule you, often to another day since classes sell out. A late fee applies: $10 per flyer for 1–5 flyers, or $20 per flyer for groups of 6+.

Plan for about 1 hour and 30 minutes for the full first-time experience: check-in, gearing up, training, flights, and wrap-up. Completing your waiver ahead of time saves time.

iFLY Virginia Beach doesn’t have its own parking. The closest options are the 25th Street Garage behind us and the metered parking on 24½ Street beside the building. If those are full, find parking before your arrival time.

Both lots are run by the City of Virginia Beach, so payment is required and we’re unable to validate. iFLY Virginia Beach isn’t responsible for parking tickets or towing.

Wear well-fitting lace-up sneakers (running shoes are great) and casual clothes, ideally pants and a shirt without a collar. Your flight suit goes on over your clothes.

Your helmet needs to fit properly, so secure long hair in a low bun. A low braided bun works best.

Yes. Remove anything that could flap around or come loose, like earrings, necklaces, watches, rings, and hair accessories, and empty your pockets. Lockers are available, but leave valuables at home when you can. iFLY Virginia Beach isn’t responsible for lost or stolen items.

Yes. We have goggles that fit over glasses.

Yes. Most guests don’t experience motion sickness, nausea, or a “dropping” feeling.

Flyers can start at age 3. Anyone under 18 needs a parent or guardian to sign their waiver.

Yes. To keep flyers and instructors safe, we can’t accommodate flyers over 259 lbs. Guests over the limit will be offered a refund for that flyer.

Most iFLY locations have no height requirement. Give us a call if you have questions.

Safety is our top priority. A certified, highly trained instructor is with you for every flight.

Most guests say no. There’s no jumping and no falling feeling.

No. It feels a lot like putting your head out of a car window. Just breathe normally through your mouth or nose.

Each flight lasts 60 seconds, about the same as a real skydive freefall (often longer!). Your total flight time depends on your package.

First-time packages typically include training, flight gear, flight time, your instructor, and a flight certificate. Package details vary.

A High Flight lets you fly higher and faster with your instructor during one of your flights. You can add one in advance or at check-in, so no need to decide now.

You’ll usually be in the same group, but each flyer goes into the tunnel one at a time with an instructor. Experienced flyers of the same skill level may be able to fly together. Spectators are welcome to watch and take photos and videos from the viewing area.

Flips and tricks are for experienced flyers. First-time flyers may learn basic moves, like turns and controlled changes in height, with their instructor.

Your instructor uses the handles on your flight suit to guide and spot you safely.

Reservations are strongly recommended. Sessions often sell out in advance.

Book online with our booking tool, or call us at 757-754-4359.

First-time vouchers expire 36 months after purchase, and Return vouchers expire after 24 months. Vouchers have no fees and can’t be returned or exchanged for cash. If one is lost, stolen, or damaged, it may be replaced with an equal-value package with proof of purchase.

Vouchers can be redeemed on our website, or at other iFLY locations by calling ahead.
