HOW IT WORKS

From scrolling to skydiving,
in four steps.

What actually happens between finding a dropzone on the map and the morning of your jump. The booking, the money, the email, what we check, and what we do when the weather goes.

FIND A DROPZONE

Browse 57 verified dropzones across 19 countries. Every tile tells you the same things.

You’ll land on a marketplace tile that looks exactly like this. Same shape across Thailand, the Philippines, Japan, the UAE, Sri Lanka, India, Indonesia and Singapore — so once you can read one, you can read all of them.

WHAT THE TILE TELLS YOU
01
Experience tag · altitude
Top-left chips. Tandem (no licence needed), AFF (training progression), or both. The mono altitude is the actual exit altitude of their tandem ops — not marketing.
02
Booking mode
The top-right chip is your tell. Instant book means the operator has flipped on real-time availability and you can confirm a slot in 90 seconds. Inquiry means you send a request and they confirm — currently the default. Instant unlocks per-package as operators flip it on.
03
Operator name · Verified shield
The emerald shield (right of the name) means we reviewed their safety affiliation, insurance, aircraft airworthiness, and dropzone permit. More on that further down.
04
Location manifest
Mono uppercase city · country. Click anywhere on the tile to open the full dropzone page.
05
Price (local) · price (your currency)
The big mono price is what you pay — the operator's local currency. The smaller line is a preview in your home currency at the live mid-market rate, detected from your IP and switchable from the header. At checkout your card is charged in the operator's currency; your bank does the conversion at their rate.
06
CTA — Book Now or Check Availability
If instant: Book Now drops you into the 4-step checkout below. If inquiry: Check Availability opens a date-range request the operator confirms — typically within 2h during business hours.
HEADS UP

Inquiry-first is the default — every dropzone starts that way. That’s not a worse path, it’s how dropzones manifest jumps internally. A reply typically lands in your inbox the same day. Operators flip on instant-book per-package as they finish onboarding.

BOOK THE JUMP

Four screens. Same shape every time.

Then this lands. Booking, pre-jump checklist, weather plan.

WHEN THE WEATHER GOES

Some weekends the sky’s not the answer. Here’s what happens then.

Skydiving lives and dies on weather. Cloud base, surface wind, upper-altitude wind, viz — the dropzone makes the call on the morning. Below is the path from “scrubbed” to “rescheduled or refunded.” Honest about which bits are automated today and which are still on the roadmap.

Honest about the state of this

Weather holds are partially automated today. Operator flags → email → rebook window → refund are all live. Auto-SMS to the customer when a weather hold drops, and auto-refund fallback if no rebook is picked inside 14 days, are on the roadmap. Until then, our team watches every hold by hand.

WHAT THE SHIELD MEANS

The verified shield. Four documents, no badges-for-money.

Every operator on the marketplace passes the same four-document review before their listing goes live. The emerald shield next to the operator name on each tile is what that means.

SIA · VERIFIED
Means a real human checked four documents.

Not a marketing badge. Not a self-attested checkbox. Our team reviews each file and re-verifies annually.

The questions you’re actually about to ask.

Click any to open. We’ve put them where you’d hit them in the flow — not in an FAQ at the bottom.

Tandem jumps across the region land somewhere between USD 250 and USD 450. Thailand sits lower (THB 9,500–12,750). Japan and UAE sit at the top end. Indonesia, Sri Lanka and the Philippines fall in the middle.

The price you see on the tile is the operator’s listed price, converted to your home currency. Outside-camera video is usually an add-on (THB 3,500–6,000 / USD 100–170). AFF progression pricing is per-jump and we list it on the operator page, not on the listing tile.
