Please dress suitably and comfortably for your skydive, and be respectful of the local culture and sentiments.
Athletic, comfortable clothes are advised; t-shirts/tops must have sleeves.
Sneakers or sport shoes are ideal for your skydive. Please make sure your shoes don’t have any buckles or studs on them.
Not allowed: Low-cut tops, sleeveless tops, collared shirts, crop tops or short shorts.
Not allowed: Sandals, boots or heeled/platform shoes of any type.
Customers are advised to remove any jewelry, watches and other accessories before their skydive. These can be placed in the free personal lockers at our locations. - Weather
Skydiving is a weather-dependent sport. High-speed winds, poor visibility, rain (yes, it is known to happen in Dubai) and low clouds, are just some of the reasons that can delay, or even cancel our skydiving operations.
In case of bad weather, our team will announce a “standby”, which means we have to put our operations on hold. Regular announcements will be made updating you on the conditions while you wait at our locations.
If the weather shows no signs of improving and we have to cancel operations and you cannot reschedule for the next available date, you will receive a refund.
While we always do our best to communicate operational changes, Skydive Dubai reserves the right to close our dropzones without any prior warning. In this case, our team will contact you by phone or email to cancel or reschedule your skydive.
Note:
Every customer will be given protective eye goggles to wear during their skydive. So, if you need to wear prescription glasses or lenses during your skydive, please do so. You don’t want to miss that view!
