Worst rip off ever!

by mariadevictoria

First, the simulator is outside (which they do not tell you that), so strangers gawk at you as you awkwardly are in the flight tunnel. In fact, a few of them took pictures of me while I was in "flight". Second, they only lift you 3-4 feet off the ground. You dont get the sensation of flying at all. Third, you dont do a group flight like they say. It is nothing like in the pictures. Fourth, you have to wait for your entire group to finish which could take ages depending on what time you do it. Fifth, its expensive and they pressure to fly twice or more. Overall one of the most disappointing experiences ever. I wish I would have never ever done it. Oh and parking is expensive.

• Pros: None what so ever
• Cons: Expensive, Not Real, Strangers gawk at you

Hi Maria,

My name is Heather and I do Public Relations for iFLY. I would love to hear more about your disappointing experience at iFLY, and see if there is anything I can do to rectify the situation. I understand it was not what you were expecting, and would like to know one, if there would be anything we could do to make it better, and two, utilize that information to train our staff better.

please contact me at heather@iflyhollywood.com if you would like

Best,

What a fun thing to do in LA, I took my friend here who was visiting from out of town. I LOVED it!

My husband loved this place!!!

by Heather90019

I bought this for my husband for his birthday! He had so much fun he added another flight for 20 bucks and was hooked. It's all he wants for Father's Day so we are buying another package. Highly recommend. Staff is nice and made him feel like a rock star.

• Pros: unique, crazy fun, great location

Awesome kid's birthday

by jessfue

Attended a party for my son's friend's birthday last weekend at ifly. All the kids had a great time and even some of the parents flew and got to join in on the fun. The staff was extremely helpful, not only with the flying but also with the party room set up, catering, and keeping ten 13 year olds in check. :) My son can't wait till his birthday to have his party here.

• Pros: Friendly staff, clean, family friendly, safe, FUN!
• Cons: none

Super Time - Great for Team Building Activity

by chadelbert

Did you know that you can valet park for free for 2 hours at Citywalk in Universal? Also, iFly validates! This is a super time with teriffic instructors that really incorporate fun into the activity. If you are trying to think of a great way to reward a sales team or any kind of team building, this is a perfect venue. Many places to have a bite to eat or drink to follow the skydiving.

• Pros: Parking / Competence / Fun
