If a skydive is cancelled due to weather, SA will endeavour to rebook the jump on a suitable alternative date before leaving the drop zone. If this is not possible, a ‘limbo’ credit will be issued to the customer to the value of the original skydive. A limbo credit will remain valid for a period of 12 months from the original jump date. After this date, the credit will be forfeited, and no refunds will be given. This credit can be transferred to another SA location. Customers must pay any price difference if changing to an experience of a higher booking value including upgrading to a higher jump height, changing to a weekend and public holiday, changing products, packages or skydive locations. Customers will not be due a refund if changing to an experience of a lesser booking value. All Groups will still be entitled to the group discount if their skydive is cancelled and they are unable to reschedule their jump as a group on the same date.
Due to medical restrictions, you must not scuba dive within 24 hours of the scheduled skydive jump time.
