iFLY Kansas City Overview
iFLY Kansas City (also known as iFLY Overland Park) is a 14-foot (4.3 m) recirculating tunnel that opened in January 2016. This Generation 7 SkyVenture model is the first (and to date only) wind tunnel in Kansas City and the only place to go indoor skydiving in both Kansas and Missouri (although the upcoming iFLY St. Louis will change that).
The wind tunnel is just south of I-435, off Metcalf Avenue. Like other SkyVenture (iFLY) tunnels of its generation, iFLY Overland Park/Kansas City is a round, wall-to-wall tunnel sporting wind speeds up to 171 mph (275 km/h).

My wonderful husband wanted to surprise me with a package from ifly.Kansascity.com for myself, daughter and grandson. It was not a good experience. First he didn't call before driving to the location and it was closed(website hours said open). He went back the next day to book the package and ends up standing and waiting for 40 min to speak to someone about a package. They had a class in session so that was understandable but this where it turns really wrong. After waiting you would think Ifly people would be willing to help since Doug had been waiting and was going to be spend around $400.00. NO they did even try and help. They are very inconsiderate and flat rude. They were too busy talking to each other. No time for new customers! Not going to be a customer going to do real skydiving instead!
First flight Nickname: Flyhigh0126 Review Date: February 1, 2021
5/5 Stars
We celebrated my daughter's 16th birthday at iFLY this past weekend. My daughter has high functioning autism and after her first flight she got upset and didn't want to do it anymore. She said she felt like she couldn't breath. The instructor was very understanding about her not wanting to go again. Luckily, her dad and grandma talked to an employee about trying a different helmet, one that had a visor come down and protected her face. The employee that they got new helmet from was very helpful (wish we had gotten his name) and they let her try flying again. She was so happy, the new helmet worked and she had so much fun. The instructor and all the employees were patient and understanding, even though it may have gotten them behind, they accommodated her special needs and let her fly again and made her 16th birthday memorable. Thank you to all employees at iFLY!
It was OK Nickname: jmickey725 Review Date: January 1, 2020

It was fine. The entire experience took about 45 minutes. Each flight is one minute long and we purchased two flights for my daughter. During her first flight, she got nervous (4 seconds in) and the instructor sent her out early, telling me to get her a different helmet. I got her a different helmet, but he counted the 4-second flight as her first minute, so she really only received 64 seconds of flight for $50, which I thought was a little unfair. Why not just let her finish her first flight? I would've taken literally 56 seconds of his life and saved me a lot of tears on the way home. I guess I just feel like, for the cost, they could be a little better with customer service.
My 12-year-old son liked it fine.

Took my 20 yr old to his first diving experience will definitely go again. My son has autism ,when we arrived I seen mostly all younger staff and was a little concerned due to patience from a lot of todays younger generation. I was very surprised how wonderful they were and patient with my son as well as many others. They did anything to help and make a great experience. That you can not put a price on !!!!

My brother gave us a present this year, Flight lessons! Our instructor was fantastic, I think his name was Brandon, a former wrestler from Southeast Polk. He made it an experience of a lifetime. My family loved it and we will definitely be coming back and bringing friends!

Great Facility and Super Staff Nickname: Quake Review Date: November 30, 2016
5/5 Stars
I took my first flight at iFLY Kansas City right after the facility opened. It only took the introductory flight to convince me that this was a sport that I wanted to continue to pursue.
Now, with over 4 hours in the tunnel, I am getting pretty decent at this indoor skydiving thing, thanks to my outstanding instructor/coach Caleb Foley and all the fabulous staff here.
This is a sport everyone should try at least once and I guarantee you will leave the tunnel with a huge smile on your face!

Everything Terrific Nickname: Fun Seeker Review Date: April 2, 2016
5/5 Stars
Wow from the minute you check in you are created w/a fantastic smile & friendly manner. We asked to take a look inside to check it out & he said "sure go ahead." We were hooked checked in with on-line monitor & super easy. Facility is very clean & decor is also cool! Raleigh was the instructor & did a fabulous job of explaining in detail hand signals & exactly what we needed to know. Would definitely recommend it!
Outstanding Time! Nickname: DBG762 Review Date: March 24, 2016
5/5 Stars
Without a doubt, that was one of the most exhilarating experiences I've ever done. The entire process, from checking in, to being instructed on procedures once inside the tunnel, gearing up, and then finally going into the tunnel itself was painless and and easy. The receiving staff were very polite and helpful, and then our Instructor, Diego was extremely friendly and helpful in giving us pointers once we were inside flying. His cheerfulness and humor kept our group from being too nervous about going in, and once we had all gone, there was nothing but smiles across everyone's faces. For those who are on the fence about doing this, don't be afraid! The Instructors all have vast amounts of experience (as they will demonstrate at the end doing an impressive demo by themselves) and will ensure you have a fun but most importantly safe time. Props to the staff there! Keep up the good work gents!

I went to iFly for the first time last week and it was by far one of the craziest things I've done in a long time. It was so cool to feel what it would be like to actually sky dive. Austin Crandall was our instructor and he did a fantastic job. He made it so much fun for not just the adults, but the kids too. I will definitely be going back.
Once in a Lifetime Experience Nickname: Mlinhart Review Date: December 17, 2015
5/5 Stars
This location wasn't open yet but I have tried iFly at another location and can tell you it is a once in a lifetime experience. Something you shouldn't pass up!
Very low risk of danger and I've seen kids as young as 6 doing it as well.
Wife was scared before trying it but afterwards she said that it was a blast and nothing to be scared about.
I will defiantly be trying it again when this location opens!!!!
