Let Them Fly Without Ever Leaving the Ground

Most people are curious about skydiving and terrified of it in equal measure. iFLY in Chicago solves that. A vertical wind tunnel pushes air fast enough to hold a human body aloft, so the recipient gets the floating, weightless sensation of freefall with the floor a few feet below. Tinggly packages it as one of our experience gifts, which means you give the flight and they book the day that suits them.

Real Freefall, Coached Step by Step

No experience is needed and that is the point. Before the flight, an instructor walks them through body position and hand signals, then stays in the tunnel for every second they are airborne. It is the kind of first-timer-friendly thrill that works for a nervous beginner and a self-described adrenaline junkie alike.

Build a Bigger Day Around the Tunnel

A flight at iFLY rarely fills a whole day, which leaves room for everything else Chicago does well. The same person might want a helicopter tour over the skyline, an architecture river cruise, or the view from the Willis Tower afterward. Browse things to do in Chicago and turn one short flight into a packed day in the city.

Pick the Flight That Fits the Flyer

Some want a quick taste of the tunnel, others want longer sessions or a high-flight upgrade that sends them higher with the instructor. Because the recipient chooses how they redeem, you are not locked into guessing their nerve. You give the flight, they decide how far they push it.

Make a Weekend of It in Illinois

Indoor skydiving works in any weather, which makes it a reliable anchor for a Chicago trip whatever the season throws at the lake. Pair it with a great meal, a night out, and a slower second day, and a single gift becomes the headline moment of a whole getaway.

Can't Decide? Let Them Choose

If you are not sure flying is their thing, do not gamble on it. Our experience gift collections hand the recipient a spread of options on one voucher, so they pick the experience that genuinely excites them. Stories, not stuff: a few minutes of real flight will outlast any object you could have boxed up.
