Arrive early and check in
Plan to arrive at least 10 minutes before your scheduled time to complete waivers and gear-up; late arrivals may lose their flight slot.
Wear the right shoes
Bring lace-up sneakers—no sandals or slip-ons—to ensure a secure fit inside the flight suit and better control in the tunnel.
Know the weight and health limits
Staff will evaluate flyers between 260–300 lbs and cannot accommodate guests over 300 lbs; recent neck/back injuries or pregnancy disqualify participation.
Book off-peak times
Midweek or early afternoons tend to be less crowded, reducing wait times and giving instructors more one-on-one focus.
Lace-up sneakers
Provide secure footing and fit properly under the flight suit—required by the facility.
Comfortable pants (no skirts)
Allow full range of motion and fit comfortably under the flight suit during maneuvers.
Photo ID and waiver information
Needed for check-in and for guests under 18 where guardians must sign release forms.
Reusable water bottle
Stay hydrated before and after your session—Tampa’s heat can dehydrate you quickly.
