If you’ve always wanted to try sky diving, but you’re not quite sure you can bring yourself to actually jump from an airplane, you’ll love this epic wind tunnel near Denver. It offers visitors a chance to float in the air on an adventure unlike any other.
iFly is an indoor venue that features a wind tunnel where you can float and fly just like a bird in the sky. It's located at 9230 Park Meadows Dr., Lone Tree, CO 80124.
The flight chamber is specially-designed with a vertical column of air that allows you to float several feet off the ground. Your adventure at iFly starts with check-in and will take about an hour and half.
First things first: you'll learn how to fly in the wind tunnel. Your instructor will show you the proper body position to get the most out of your experience, and you'll also learn some hand signals so you can communicate during your flight.
Your instructor will be right there with you in the flight chamber as you float in the air. Don't worry, you won't experience any stomach-dropping or falling here - just pure joy and exhilaration! Each flight lasts about 60 seconds - a little longer than the free-fall when jumping out of a plane.
iFly is a fun place for your next birthday party or other event. They can accommodate groups of up to 100 people, and you'll have a blast flying with your friends or family members.
An adventure at iFly might be your favorite memory of the entire year. Book your flight now! Flights are available every half-hour Sunday through Thursday from 10 a.m. to 8:30 p.m., and 9 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. Friday and Saturday.
