1 / 3iFLY Indoor Skydiving - San Antonio
📍 Far North Central, TX
iFLY San Antonio features a vertical wind tunnel where flyers of all ages experience indoor skydiving with certified instructor coaching. School field trips include hands-on STEM parachute-building activities.
My daughter's 5th Grade class went on a field trip to iFLY today, and it was AWESOME! Not only did we fly, but the STEM lesson and hands-on activity of making and testing parachutes were top notch! The students were super excited to fly (some were nervous and afraid also), but they were also very engaged with the academic portions because the staff there made it fun by asking questions, allowing the students to make educated guesses, and using props. All of the team members were so fantastic with the students, but shout out to the flight instructor for my daughter's group, Jon! He was so engaging, encouraging, and patient, and the passion he has for his job was really apparent! I cannot say enough great things about this experience, facility, and professional staff, and I highly recommend it for a school field trip or just a fun outing! 🎉
🏆 Family Action Verdict
Best for families with kids aged 4 and up — iFLY lists no upper age limit and instructors are trained to work with nervous flyers. School-age children particularly benefit from the STEM field trip format. Nervous kids are consistently reassured by patient instructors per reviewer feedback. Non-flying family members can watch from spectating areas.

“Visited from out of town and had an amazing experience. Staff was very friendly and helpful. While we were a walk in, would recommend making reservations as there's no guarantee there will be space. A little bit on the pricey side for a family, but still cheaper than jumping out of an airplane. Facility is very clean. Would highly recommend!”

“Absolutely great. Jonathan our instructor was fantastic, he was just great in every way, funny, helpful and made us feel safe, and at the end the aerial performance that he put on was spectacular, we would like to say thank you to him and the staff at iFLY, we really appreciate great service.”

“My friend and I went for our first time today. Had Jon as an instructor. Place was amazing, and he was a great instructor. Really up beat, and tailored every flight to the individual.”
