Singapore: I-Fly Indoor E-Ticket for 2 Skydives

The main thrill here is simple: you step into a powerful vertical wind tunnel and float above the floor without jumping from an aircraft. At 56.5 feet high and 16.5 feet across, iFly Singapore’s tunnel gives you a convincing taste of freefall in a controlled setting.

I like the careful instruction from certified professional skydivers, and I like that your $85 ticket includes two flights, rental gear, training, and a flight certificate. The main drawback is time in the air. Two sessions sound generous, but each flight is brief, and a full session can include up to 16 people.

Key points to know

• Two indoor freefall sessions: You get two chances to adjust your body position and improve after the first flight.
• Large 56.5-foot tunnel: The tall, wide chamber gives you a realistic freefall setting without an aircraft or outdoor jump.
• Training comes first: Certified instructors provide the safety briefing and a pre-flight demonstration in English.
• Everything essential is supplied: Your ticket includes a flight suit, safety equipment, and a flight certificate.
• Convenient Sentosa location: Find iFly Singapore beside Beach Station, then return to the same point when the activity ends.
• Strict health and age rules: You must be at least 7, meet the height and weight rules, and have no pregnancy, hard cast, or relevant back, neck, or shoulder condition.

What iFly Singapore actually gives you

Indoor freefall is the closest thing to a parachute jump without stepping out of an aircraft. Air rises through the tunnel at enough force to support your body, while an instructor helps you hold the right position.

That difference matters. You get the sensation of floating and the need to control your body, but the setting is enclosed, supervised, and built for repeated attempts. You are not paying for an aircraft flight, a parachute, or a long climb before a single jump.

The attraction is beside Beach Station in Sentosa, so it fits neatly into a day on the island. You go directly to the iFly counter to redeem your booking. The activity ends at the same meeting point, with no hotel transfer included.

The experience takes about 1.5 hours from check-in through the final flight. That is long enough for instruction, changing, equipment checks, and two sessions in the tunnel. It is not 1.5 hours of continuous flight, so keep your expectations sensible.

Your first 30 minutes: check-in, gear, and instruction

Your first job is to arrive at the iFly counter with your passport or identity card. The staff then prepare you for the flight with the required safety information and equipment.

The supplied gear includes a flight suit and safety equipment. Wear a T-shirt with shorts, jeans, or trousers underneath. Women are advised to avoid skirts and dresses, which is practical advice for getting suited up and moving safely.

The safety briefing is not filler. Indoor freefall looks easy from the outside, but small changes in your arms, legs, and body position affect how the air carries you. The instructor explains the basic position and shows you what to do before you enter the tunnel.

Training is provided in English by certified professional skydivers. You should pay close attention to the hand signals and body instructions. Noise from the wind tunnel can make spoken directions harder to follow once you are inside, so the pre-flight demonstration gives you a useful set of visual cues.

A maximum of 16 people can be assigned to one flight session. That group is split into two groups of eight for training and flight. This keeps the instruction more manageable, but it also means you should not expect to walk in and receive a private lesson.

Inside the 56.5-foot wind tunnel

The tunnel is the centerpiece of the experience. It reaches 56.5 feet high and measures 16.5 feet in diameter, creating a tall column of moving air for the flight sessions.

You enter the tunnel under instructor supervision. The aim is to keep your body stable in the airflow rather than simply leap or move around. The instructor helps you make small corrections, which is why the activity works for beginners as well as people curious about more serious skydiving.

Your first session is mainly about getting used to the force of the air. Your body may not respond exactly as expected, and the instructor’s guidance becomes important. You may spend part of the flight learning to keep your arms and legs in the right position instead of trying to perform tricks.

The second session gives you a chance to apply what you learned. That two-flight format is one of the strongest parts of the ticket. After the first attempt, you have a better feel for the wind and can focus on control rather than surprise.

The flight time itself is limited, and the group format affects how long you personally remain in the tunnel. The attraction gives you two sessions, not an uninterrupted block of airtime. Still, the second attempt adds real value because indoor freefall is a skill, even in a short format.

Why two flights are better than one

A single flight would give you the sensation, but it might end just as you begin to understand it. The second session makes the experience feel more useful.

On the first attempt, you are likely to concentrate on staying calm and following instructions. On the second, you can pay more attention to how your body moves in the airflow. That small learning curve is important, especially for children and first-time flyers.

The repeat appeal is easy to understand. One young flyer has already returned five times and still wanted to come back. That suggests this is not only a one-time photo opportunity. For some people, the fun comes from trying to improve each time.

I would particularly value the second session if you are considering an outdoor tandem jump later. You will not be trained for an actual parachute jump by this activity, but you will get an introduction to body position, instruction, and the feeling of being supported by moving air.

Do not confuse it with a full outdoor jump, though. There is no aircraft, parachute descent, or open-air view. It is a controlled simulation designed to give you the freefall sensation while keeping you inside the facility.

What the $85 price includes

At $85 per person, the ticket is easiest to judge as a short, all-in activity rather than as a simple admission fee. It includes two flights, the pre-flight demonstration, safety instruction, rental flight suit, safety equipment, and a flight certificate.

That package saves you from paying separately for the basic gear and instruction. It also removes much of the cost and risk linked with a tandem jump. You do not need to arrange an aircraft ride or outdoor equipment, and the entire activity fits into a 1.5-hour window.

The value depends on what you want. If you are looking for a long attraction with hours of entertainment, this will feel brief. If you want a memorable Sentosa activity with a strong physical thrill and a clear beginning and end, the price is more reasonable.

The certificate is a nice finishing touch, especially for a child or a first-time flyer. It gives you a small record of the activity, though the real value is the two attempts inside the tunnel.

Food, drinks, personal expenses, and hotel pickup are not included. Plan those separately. Since the attraction is beside Beach Station, you can combine it with other Sentosa plans, but leave enough time to reach the counter for your scheduled start.

Choosing your time at Sentosa

Operating hours vary by the option you choose. On normal Saturdays and Sundays, flights are listed from 12:00 to 17:30. Public holidays and December 26 have longer hours, from 10:00 to 21:30.

Off-peak times run Monday through Friday from 12:00 to 19:30. On Saturdays and Sundays, off-peak flights are listed from 10:00 to 11:30 and 18:00 to 19:30.

Check the exact time available before you plan the rest of your day. Special schedules can change the pattern. For example, on January 22, 2025, the center closed at 18:00 with the last flight at 17:30, while on February 1, 2025, it opened at 12:00 with the first flight at 13:00.

These details matter because this is a timed activity, not a flexible walk-in attraction. Go directly to the iFly counter for redemption and allow enough time for check-in before your flight.

Who should book this experience

This activity suits adults and children aged 7 and above who want a strong thrill without an outdoor parachute jump. It is also a good choice for families because the instruction is structured and the flight is supervised.

Children need to meet the minimum height requirement of 120 centimeters, or about 3 feet 9 inches. The listed weight limits are 120 kilograms for people under 1.8 meters tall, and 140 kilograms for people over 1.8 meters tall.

You should not book if you are pregnant, under the influence of alcohol or drugs, wearing a hard cast, or dealing with a history of shoulder dislocation or back or neck injury. The activity is also not suitable for people with mobility impairments or significant back problems.

These rules are not minor fine print. The wind places real pressure on your body, and you need enough control to follow the instructor’s directions. If you are unsure about your physical suitability, treat the restrictions seriously before paying, since the activity is non-refundable.

A few practical tips before you go

Wear simple, secure clothing. A T-shirt and shorts, jeans, or trousers are suitable. Avoid a skirt or dress, and bring your passport or identity card for identification.

Do not plan on eating or drinking as part of the ticket. Food and drinks are not included, so arrange those before or after the session.

Keep your schedule flexible after the activity. The listed duration is 1.5 hours, and group size, training, and flight rotation all form part of that time. A maximum of 16 people may be present in a session, divided into two groups of eight.

The instructor speaks English. If you understand basic English instructions, you should be able to follow the safety demonstration and flight guidance. Pay attention before entering the tunnel, since the instructor’s signals become especially useful during the flight.

Remember that the activity finishes back at the starting point. There is no hotel pickup or drop-off, so you are responsible for reaching Beach Station and continuing to your next Sentosa stop.

Is iFly Singapore worth booking?

I would book this if you want a memorable, active Sentosa attraction and like the idea of freefall but do not want the cost or commitment of a tandem jump. The two sessions make the $85 price more appealing, and the training, equipment, and certificate are all included.

I would skip it if you want a long sightseeing activity, dislike enclosed attractions, or cannot meet the health, height, and weight rules. You should also avoid booking until your schedule is firm because the ticket is non-refundable.

For families, first-time flyers, and anyone curious about skydiving, iFly Singapore offers a controlled way to try the sensation. Just remember what you are buying: two short, supervised indoor flights, not an outdoor parachute adventure.
