Consumer Alert!

Before making an appointment and paying any money in advance, choose your skydiving school carefully and know its exact location. Most skydiving schools prefer that you make a reservation directly with them and prepayment or deposits are customary.


Beware of online marketers that claim to have a skydiving center that offer gift certificates and reduced prices. United State Parachute Association has received numerous complaints about questionable trade practices by on-line skydiving referral services. If the skydiving school cannot tell you their location without first asking your location or ID number, then you are not dealing directly with the school but a referral service. This may result in your traveling much farther and paying much more than you would by scheduling directly.
