Spooky savings on indoor skydiving this Halloween: Frightfully fun family adventures at iFLY

23 October 2024

Spring is in the air, and while the flowers bloom and the sunshine lingers a little longer each day, there's something even more thrilling brewing inside iFLY’s vertical wind tunnels. This Halloween, we’re conjuring up spooky savings and spellbinding indoor adventures perfect for families, first-timers, and anyone looking to add some unforgettable energy to their season.

Because why stick to the usual Halloween activities when you can fly like a bat, float like a ghost, and cackle your way through a gravity-defying experience?

From Brisbane to Melbourne and Perth, iFLY Australia is your go-to destination for frightfully fun indoor activities. No tricks, just sky-high treats.

What is indoor skydiving and why is it perfect for Halloween?

Let’s start with the basics. If you’ve been Googling “indoor activities for kids” or wondering “what's indoor skydiving like?” - we’ve got you.

Indoor skydiving is the simulation of freefall skydiving in a vertical wind tunnel, and it’s one of the most thrilling, safe, and inclusive experiences out there. Thanks to our high-powered wind tunnel skydiving technology, we recreate the feeling of freefall without parachutes, planes, or heights. Just step into the tunnel, lean into the wind, and before you know it, you're flying.

It’s the perfect mix of adrenaline, novelty, and joy and the ultimate Halloween upgrade to pumpkin carving or trick-or-treating.

Why indoor skydiving is one of the best indoor activities this spring

The weather’s unpredictable, the kids are restless, and you’ve already done the zoo, the movies, and the local bounce centre. Indoor skydiving changes the game. Here's why:

  • All-weather excitement: No need to worry about spring showers or blazing sun, our tunnels are indoors and fully climate-controlled.
  • No experience required: Our skydiving simulator is beginner-friendly and safe for ages 3 to 103. Yes, really.
  • It’s a full-body workout: Skydiving in an air tunnel engages your core, strengthens muscles, and improves coordination.
  • Mental boost: Flying is proven to lift spirits and reduce stress. And let’s be honest, seeing mum or dad zooming like a superhero is the best kind of family bonding.

Spooktacular savings

We’re not just lifting your spirits, we’re lifting the savings, too. Swap your everyday for a flight suit, goggles, and helmet, and let the fun begin. These limited-time spooky savings mean you and your crew can take flight for less, creating core memories that are far more thrilling than your average Halloween movie marathon.

It’s our way of making indoor skydiving even more accessible to families, couples, and adventurous mates looking to spice up the season.

Looking for “wind tunnel skydiving near me”? We’ve got you covered

With iFLY locations in Brisbane, Melbourne, and Perth, there's a vertical wind tunnel waiting to launch you into a sky-high Halloween experience.

Each of our tunnels is equipped with state-of-the-art wind tunnel indoor skydiving simulators, built by flight fanatics and engineered to deliver the real feeling of human flight.

Wondering which location suits you best?

  • iFLY Brisbane: Located in the heart of the city, perfect for combining your flight with other family-friendly indoor activities.
  • iFLY Melbourne: A buzzing hub for both first-timers and sport flyers, just minutes from major shopping and dining spots.

What to expect during your indoor flying session

First time? Don’t fret.

Here’s what a typical spooky flight looks like:

  1. Check-in and gear-up: You’ll arrive at your chosen iFLY tunnel and get suited up in flight gear: jumpsuit, helmet, goggles, and earplugs.
  2. Pre-flight training: A quick but informative safety briefing will walk you through the correct body position and hand signals.
  3. Time to fly: With your instructor by your side, you’ll enter the wind tunnel and feel the lift. Most flyers get two 60-second flights, equal to the freefall time of three outdoor skydives!
  4. Optional high flight: For a small extra cost, you can choose the premium experience: an instructor-led high flight that takes you spinning higher into the tunnel.
  5. Debrief and video playback: After your flight, relive the magic with your flight video (perfect for posting your spooky zoom to Instagram or sending to nan).

Is indoor skydiving worth it?

We get this question a lot. And honestly, the answer is YES.

While indoor skydiving costs more than your average trip to the movies or a round of mini golf, it delivers on value in ways few other indoor activities for adults and kids can.

✅ It’s a real flying experience

✅ It’s guided by qualified instructors

✅ It’s inclusive for almost all ages

✅ It’s totally safe and weather-proof

✅ And -let’s be honest- it’s way cooler than a haunted house

Who’s indoor skydiving for?

One of the best parts of iFLY is that it’s not just for thrill-seekers or extreme sport lovers. Indoor flying is for:

  • Families with kids looking for bonding activities
  • Teenagers craving a cool, Instagrammable experience
  • Mates or couples looking for alternative Halloween fun
  • Grandparents and multi-gen groups, yes, we’ve had 80-year-olds fly and love it!
  • Fitness enthusiasts wanting a fresh challenge
  • Anyone needing a mental reset

It’s also a great gift idea, especially for birthdays, anniversaries, or early Christmas shopping.

“Is there an air tunnel skydiving experience near me?”

Halloween is one of our busiest times of year, especially with spooky deals flying out the door. Booking online is the fastest way to secure your flight time and avoid missing out.

Just head to iFLY Australia and pick your tunnel. Choose your preferred flight package, and you’re on your way to soaring like a Halloween phantom.

Why flying beats fright nights

We love a scary movie night as much as the next ghoul, but indoor skydiving offers something that no horror flick or haunted maze can: a shared experience that makes you feel alive.

There’s nothing like laughing with your family as you float, flip, and fly, especially when you're dressed in full flight gear, grinning from ear to ear, and secretly pretending to be a broom-riding witch.

Bonus: your ticket comes with fewer jump scares and more actual jumping (into the wind tunnel, that is).

Lift your Halloween with flight

At iFLY, we don’t just offer flights: we offer transformation. We take everyday people and help them experience something truly out-of-this-world. And Halloween is the perfect excuse to try something new.

This October, ditch the plastic pumpkins and last-minute costume stress. Choose excitement. Choose laughter. Choose the magic of indoor flying.
