Thank you for booking your tandem skydive with us.
Please take the time to read all the menu items below.
If you have any questions please refer to either the FAQ page on our web site, or the terms and conditions agreed between us at the time of booking (which include the cancellation and refund policies referred to in diagrammatic form on the contract timeline page).
- ARRIVAL TIMES
You will need to arrive for 7.30am on Wednesdays, Weekends and bank holidays, or at 8.30am on other days.
If you are running late for any reason please ensure that you phone and speak with the staff at the airfield on 01354 699 088 (Option 2), as arriving late could affect your chances of being able to take part. Jump orders are decided on a first come first served basis, within your category of parachutist, and we reserve the right to ask you to rearrange your date if your late arrival means us having to put up an extra flight.
For the reasons explained in the Tandem Jump Times & Orders document on our web site please also prepare to stay with us for the whole day (I.e. until 8pm or dark, which comes first) as you have chosen to share the day with up to 85 people in a similar position and it can often take this long to get everyone jumped.
- HOW TO PAY
Please ensure each member of your group pays the remaining balance of their course fee at least 13 days prior to the date requested (as detailed in our booking terms) otherwise they could lose their space and booking deposit.
