Experience freefall with a qualified tandem instructor on a Skydive Abu Dhabi adventure. The live package is listed at AED 1,600 per adult, subject to participant eligibility, weather, aircraft operations and final operator confirmation.
How a tandem skydive works
After check-in and a safety briefing, the participant is secured to an instructor who manages the aircraft exit, freefall, parachute flight and landing. Actual altitude, timings and views depend on the confirmed operating location and package.
Eligibility and health
Strict age, weight, body-mass, fitness and medical rules may apply. Pregnancy, heart conditions, epilepsy, recent surgery, serious injuries, medication or substance use can prevent participation. Provide accurate information and bring any required medical clearance.
Weather and waiting time
Skydiving depends heavily on wind, visibility and aircraft operations. Guests should keep the day flexible because departure may be delayed, rescheduled or cancelled for safety. The instructor and operator have final authority.
Before booking
- Confirm weight, age and identification requirements.
- Ask whether photos or videos are included.
- Wear secure footwear and suitable athletic clothing.
- Avoid alcohol and follow meal guidance.
- Review cancellation and rescheduling conditions.

Why Skydive Abu Dhabi Checkout Requires Verification
The AED 1,600 card does not name the operating company, Abu Dhabi drop zone, aircraft, jump altitude or dated slot. Those details are essential for an outdoor tandem skydive, so online payment is paused until Friends Guide Travels confirms the licensed operator, instructor arrangement, package inclusions and live availability in writing.
UAE civil-aviation information should be checked through the General Civil Aviation Authority. A travel listing or old price alone does not confirm that a particular operator, aircraft or drop zone is approved and operating on the requested date.
Confirm the Exact Tandem-Skydive Product
Ask for the operator’s legal name, meeting point, check-in time, expected total duration, planned jump height and the amount of freefall and parachute flight described for the selected product. The confirmation should state whether the package includes the safety briefing, tandem instructor, harness and protective equipment, insurance, photographs, edited video, raw footage or a completion certificate.
Hotel pickup, private transport, premium media, spectator access, merchandise and rescheduling protection are excluded unless specifically itemised. Do not assume the AED 1,600 price matches a Dubai drop-zone product or another company’s tandem package.
Age, Weight and Medical Eligibility
Eligibility limits are operator-specific. Before any payment, provide the participant’s age, height, weight and relevant medical information. The operator may apply weight-to-height or harness-fit requirements in addition to a maximum weight, and may request parental consent, an original photo ID, a signed waiver or a doctor’s fitness declaration.
Pregnancy, epilepsy, serious heart or neurological conditions, recent surgery, significant injuries, medication, alcohol or other factors can prevent participation. Information must be accurate. The instructor and operator have final authority to refuse a jump when safety or equipment fit is not satisfactory.
Weather, Aircraft Operations and Waiting Time
Outdoor skydiving depends on wind, visibility, clouds, aircraft availability, airspace and operational safety. A confirmed arrival time is not a guaranteed take-off time. Keep the day flexible and avoid arranging a flight, cruise or non-refundable activity immediately after the expected finish.
The written terms should explain weather cancellation, operator cancellation, participant lateness, no-show treatment, date changes, refunds and voucher validity. Ask whether transport or media costs are refundable when the jump itself is postponed.
Participant and Spectator Planning
A tandem booking is normally personal and cannot simply be transferred to another traveller when eligibility fails. Confirm the name-change rule before payment. Spectators should ask whether they may enter the drop zone, where they can wait and whether transport follows the participant’s schedule. Groups may jump in different aircraft loads, so do not promise that everyone will fly together.
What to Wear and Bring
Follow the operator’s meal, clothing and footwear guidance. Secure athletic shoes and comfortable clothing are normally more appropriate than loose garments, sandals or accessories. Bring the original identification specified on the voucher and arrive before the reporting time. Do not consume alcohol or use any substance that could impair judgement.
Compare Verified UAE Skydiving Options
If an Abu Dhabi operator and slot cannot be verified, compare the separate Skydiving Dubai enquiry page and the official Skydive Dubai website. Prices, locations, eligibility and inclusions must be confirmed independently for each operator.
