    Was it costly? Yes, but a specialized building, fans, amazing staff I bet isn't cheap! Was it worth it? Definitely! My girlfriend and I got “four flights” and I wouldn't recommend anything less. You are already there, enjoy some extra time. We both got the “fly high” addon, and it's a good addition. You can buy photos and videos at a later date, even after you leave. We weren't going to do it, but we did, and I think the quality was just OK. It was just the two of us, so we didn't have someone that could take photos and videos for us. I'd recommend having a friend/family do that. See our videos and photos attached for quality reference.

    AAA+++ to ALL the instructors and customer service assistants. They were all very phenomenal and professional and great at their job. Special shout out to Brad!!! He made us all feel at ease before and during our flight. I will definitely be going back again! It was the most amazing time I've had this year!!!

    It would've been a stellar experience had my instructor not been brand new. This was my birthday gift to myself that wasn't cheap, I'm disappointed. My helmet was clipped on my neck too tight, and I couldn't breathe or barely swallow. That was after I asked for the adjustment. Once you're in the tunnel, the wind makes it even harder to breathe. I hit the walls and the floor of the tunnel. My instructor didn't have control of me, and I didn't have control of myself. It's harder than it looks. I would try it again with someone more experienced, who doesn't say "been doing it for a minute" when asked how long they've been instructing, or when asked how many hours of experience she has doing this, says "plenty". 😳 It is not fun being the first or second group of people to be instructed by the trainee of experienced instructors. I wondered why she didn't have the thin suit on... well, now I know. A "minute" is actual, and "plenty" means close to none. My hard earned $300 got me the guinea pig experience.✌️🤙🫵🤚 I did enjoy watching my 7 year old rock it! Hence, the 3 stars.

    We gave this to our grandson for Christmas and scheduled a summer getaway with him. He loved it and we will return again in the future. The staff was wonderful to work with.

    My biggest issue is i paid about 390 for 4 individuals. When we got there they talked us into paying an additional $39 for the high flight. They ended up charging us an additional $39 for a high flight for 2 individuals that we did NOT receive. They claimed they looked at the footage and that we received it, but we did not. The sad part is my son WANTED an extra high flight for his birthday and i said no but was charged for it anyway AND HE DID NOT GET THE 2ND HIGH FLIGHT. Other than that the experience was great. The members were attentive and professional. I also agree with the majority of the reviews on here that the price exuberantly exceeds the experience because the flight only lasts for 5 minutes at the most.

    Very fun and cool experience, I went for my 50th birthday and had a blast. I have always been scared of heights, but having the instructor with you the whole time definitely made it easy to do. Will do again sometime. The instructors and staff were very friendly and helpful too.

    Had a good time practicing for AFF here. Kevin was a great instructor and was very patient with everyone. The equipment was in good shape and seemed very sanitary. The ONLY reason I am giving 4 stars instead of 5 is because the time you actually get in the tunnel is very expensive for the cost.

    We had a great time celebrating our son's bday. The staff was friendly and accommodating. They did a great job explaining what we should expect and suggested an upgrade to at least 4 or 5 flights per person, letting us know just purchasing two per would not be enough flight time. They also let us know high flights were included as well. We were not sorry at all that we upgraded! Because one person flies at a time, you can get plenty of photos and videos. Additionally, you are provided with videos and photos free for purchasing 4 or 5 flights pp. The best part is at the end of your session you can purchase up to 10 additional flights for half off. It is definitely worth your time and money. The staff also has very talented sky divers that do tricks between sessions. Our little ones really enjoyed that part. We will definitely be back on a regular basis. Needless to say our son said it was his best birthday party yet!! He really enjoyed himself. Of course as the birthday boy, he did both high flights!

    I had been wanting to try this place for some time. My daring 8 year old daughter wanted to try it for her birthday. She and her friends can be... well... difficult to say the least. Christian was fantastic! He had such a great attitude and the girls had a great time. You can buy discounted vouchers after your flight, which I did because we're interested in going again just not for the initial price, so that was a nice surprise. It was more of a workout than expected!

    As one of my sons said how it was, “it was ehh, 🤷🏻”, but deep down he loved it, they all did. we spent a weekend in Kansas and when you asked them which one was their favorite, it was the “flying”. Yes, it was pricey, but you are paying for the experience and for me it was worth it! I was smiling the whole time I was watching my kids trying something different. The staff was professional. They offered the extras but wasn’t pushy about it. Extra fly entertainment too from the instructor was amazing! Would definitely come back and do this again!

    The best experience I've had in a while. Thrilling! The staff were very personal and patient with even the youngest of us. I watched one staff member remind little little kids to sit down often while in the waiting chamber. They never got upset, they never expressed any anger and they continue to repeat themselves. Understandably frustrating but they were patient. KUDOS 👏🏾 to the staff.

    What a great experience! Lia, our instructor, was amazing! Very peppy and patient, she obviously loves people and loves what she does. We paid for two flights each and the “high flight” which takes you higher into the tunnel. I love that you can see pics and video after it’s over and have the option to purchase them as well. Worth the money, just do it! YOLO

    Great venue for those thrill seekers or your next Guys Night Out. Amazing customer service. They take the time to show you the proper and safe ways to have a life-changing experience. Put this on the bucket list for sure.

    100 percent reccomend! Went w. My 11 yr old son. We had a BLAST! Make sure to book your time. The wait, if any, is worth it! The instructors and lead instructor do a show between down times. Brian was our instructor. He did an AMAZING job. He walked us through the short class of hand signals, how to enter when we start to fly, as well as keep us calm during flight. During flight the instructor will guide you to a person who will take your picture as well as give you commands on screen in case hand signals arent doing justice. These instructors know what they're doing 💯. Very friendly place to go. From the front office clerk until you leave. You're having nothing but Fun! We used the glasses this time, to feel the wind. Next time we would use a Helmet that they provide. Highly HIGHLY recommend iFLY!

    They were so good with my daughter who has a disability and uses a wheelchair. They were completely on top of it and made the experience very fun and memorable for her! Definitely recommend!

    Good experience, great instructors. Would recommend to anyone wanting to do it... Plan on 3-4 sessions of 2 min ea. The 2x flights for 1min each give very little of the true experience.

    Came for the Science stayed for the Flying. This is an amazing experience. 100% recommend doing this at least once. The instructors and staff are wonderful. Couldn't have asked for a better way to spend a Friday night. If you do go as a group and get to see the science behind how it works, please please please stay for when they put water in the tunnel, you WON'T regret it. Mr. Joe thank you for all the fun. Instructors you guys are one of a kind and Kara you are fantastic as keeping everyone involved. I could hang out with you guys all day and never get tired of it.

    Even though the pandemic has limited how everything works, this was the most amazing experience!! Kevin was the best instructor!! He was so personable, and kept it light. The instructions were easy and he made the 'High Flight', which I recommend, the most amazing part of it!! I will for sure do this again, it even makes me want to get in a plane and go skydiving!! Book a flight TODAY! NOW, DO IT!

    Have you have ever thought about trying indoor skydiving?if you have, I'll say stop thinking about it and just do it!!! While the prices may seem a little steep, it is well worth the cost to have the experience. The facility is top notch easy to get to and there is not a raring high enough for the staff working there. The coaches are, knowledgeable, friendly, and do a wonderful job of making the entire experience a positive one. Everyone will be successful at indoor flying their first time. The coaches are patient and you get the sense that they are not just good at what they do, they appear TO LOVE what they do and are more than qualified with some having over 5000 hours of wind tunnel time. I purchased additional flights after I did the first one and hope to continue to do this many many more times. I highly recommend the KCKS location. You will not be sorry you spent your money on this business. Great job iFly!!

    It was an awesome experience, and staff here are very polite & professionals. I enjoyed my flight as well as instruction class before the flight. They give you enough time to memorize hand gesture to maintain body posture in the air tunnel. Also, you can record your own video from the outside of the tunnel. Our batch instructor was Brat, and he is very experienced to handle all ages first time flyers. Also, they give you videos & photos which you can download from their website.

    We had such a great time with our first experience with indoor skydiving! Their staff is incredibly friendly and makes everything super easy. Our instructor was Brad who did an amazing job quelling any anxiety and creating a great and safe experience for us. It is kinda pricey for the little time you get in the air, but also it was such a fun experience and def would recommend at least once!

  • 5/5 Richard R. 11 months ago on Google • 18 reviews
    My daughter is Sharon my flight school and we were celebrating her birthday. So we thought we'd give her the first flying lesson. 🙂 Everyone had a blast. It was amazing fun. The instructors were fun and professional. It did not disappoint. Thanks to all the staff.

  • 5/5 Rick E. 10 months ago on Google • 12 reviews
    I was out visiting my daughter from my home in California. This was kind of a bucket list experience for my daughter. I treated her to the experience and got so much joy watching her. The instructor was so great. Thanks for this unforgettable experience.

    Well- today was an early bday present from my family. I’ve been wanting to go to iFly for several years and I finally got the treat. What a fun experience. Happy early birthday to me!!!! If you’re ready for a treat, fly to Overland Park, Kansas and experience this adventure.

  • 5/5 michael k. 11 months ago on Google
    Great experience! Instructor was informative and funny! The flight time was a little short for the cost, by it was definitely still worth it. Unfortunately it's not something I could afford to do more regularly, but if I could, I definitely would! Instructor was very professional in the tunnel and out, and made very strong attempts to make sure you have a good time! The high flight was awesome! To anyone reading reviews trying to decide on doing this or not, this is a phenomenal experience, and that comes at a cost. Yes, it is expensive. Some would say very expensive, but so is riding in a nascar, or actually skydiving. It's about the experience, and just like any other high priced experience, it's going to cost allot if you want to get really good at it. Your not going to be able to just jump in and start doing backflips and barrel rolls, it takes time, and allot of effort, and allot of money. It is an excellent experience, and I couldn't stop smiling when done, but it's not something allot of people could afford to do every weekend, so don't expect it to be.

    Bought two 2 for one packages to total 8 flights, and was only provided 6 flights. Instructor just stopped and then showed us his tricks. This place seems pretty rigid. It was okay, and felt safe—decent prep. Just felt like we didn’t get what we paid for.

  • 5/5 Sasha W. 11 months ago on Google
    We decided to take the kids to worlds of fun but also wanted to try something new. When I found this place online, I was so excited to surprise my kids with this experience. My youngest daughter is 9, and she is scared of heights. So I wasn't sure if she would actually do it, but I was totally wrong! The kids absolutely loved this! We also added on a high fly to our packing. It's was so much fun! We had a great time and would definitely do this again!

  • 4/5 Chad Z. 11 months ago on Google
    After you get over the sticker shock and realizing you're literally pay $100 + for 2 minutes and possibly 1 "high dive" ($20 to go an extra 15 feet or so... My son 11 absolutely enjoyed it and wants to do it again... So there's that..

  • 5/5 John R. 1 year ago on Google
    If you've ever thought about jumping out of a perfectly good airplane ✈️ but are too scared, well here is the next best thing! I have been skydiving and it's awesome and this is as close as you get. Floating in the air (with a little help) is so cool, I think the prices are fair, wish you could have another 30seconds on each flight but I have purchased flights for the future. Can't wait to go again. Great staff that are very welcoming !!!

  • 5/5 andrew p. 11 months ago on Google
    All of the staff were very friendly and professional. I wasn't sure what to expect since I have never done anything like this. After a short video and some friendly coaching off we went. It was a blast. Chin up and enjoy. Thanks for a fantastic time.

  • 4/5 Jake T. 11 months ago on Google
    We had a great time flying! This was our first experience at indoor skydiving. The staff was extremely energetic, engaging, and patient. The equipment was clean and well-maintained. Note: When you visit, add on the high flight. All three of my party passed on the high fight when we registered, but changed our minds and added it once we saw everyone else doing it. For $20-ish extra, totally worth it!

  • 5/5 Sabrina S. 1 year ago on Google
    The instructors there are always so fun and they make the experience! I’ve taken both sides of my family and they have all loved it- kids and adults. Justin at the front was beyond helpful when I messed up my vouchers, and I’ll definitely be coming back!

  • 5/5 Tropha P. 1 year ago on Google
    My 10 year old loved it and Christian was great with our Girl Scout troop. I'm sad I sat out because it looked super fun.

  • 4/5 darby p. 2 years ago on Google
    Most amazing experience yet! Will go so much more. WISH there was one closer to home, I'm from Iowa. ONLY downside, the front desk guy was really trying to up sale me it felt, maybe he was trying to be genuine and make my experience better by recommending other flights. However, was a huge turn off if thats how he was trying to come off, far too 'Saley voice/demeanor'. Almost talked me out of the whole thing, thank goodness my plus one was there and helped me keep my head on. Our instructor was Jade. He was very easy to work with very direct and friendly. Felt very comfortable during this new activity.! Going again for sure. Bought another 10flights.

  • 5/5 Jaime H N. 2 years ago on Google
    Great experience starting with the friendly staff, equipment disinfected for Covid-19, our trainer was Kevin and he was excellent!!!!

  • 5/5 Nidhi S. 2 years ago on Google
    It was an amazing experience and worth every penny. Our instructor was Kevin and was highly experienced and very helpful. We went in for 2 low flights and ended up staying for a 3rd low flight and a high flight. Once we suit up, they gave a lesson on the how to's and safety and took us into the tunnel. It is a unique experience for both children and adults. I would highly recommend trying. The instructor made us feel safe and the entire team made it an amazing and unforgettable experience! We got the impression that they were passionate about what they do and wanted us to have the best experience possible.

  • 1/5 Joe R. 2 years ago on Google
    Way overpriced. "Instructors are inexperienced and lack communication skills. It's not what they advertise it to be. One minute in the air tunnel while they hold you back from having any real experience. DON'T GIVE THEM YOUR CARD NUMBER THEY WILL CHARGE YOU WITHOUT DISCUSSING ANYTHING

  • 5/5 Daniel C. 2 years ago on Google
    We brought a group of high school students and had a BLAST! Lia, our instructor, was amazing. Thank you to all the staff who made our trip a wonderful experience.

    10/10. I personally went to the Kansas City location and it was phenomenal. Special appreciation to Flynn, my instructor. He was great and had some fantastic tricks that he showed everyone.
