Bodyflying & Indoor Skydiving at FlyStation Munich

Inside FlyStation’s wind tunnel, a powerful column of air lifts you off the floor and gives you a first taste of bodyflying. An instructor guides you through entering, staying in position and exiting, so you don’t need prior experience or your own equipment.

I like two things in particular: the full kit and briefing are included, which keeps the first flight simple, and the instructors’ clear, upbeat coaching seems to be a big part of the fun. Linda, Alex and Nick are among the instructors singled out by name, though you can’t request or count on a particular person.

The main consideration is timing. You’re asked to arrive an hour before your flight, and the full visit can take about two hours. The $78.44 price covers a flight session, but the number of flights depends on your package, so check exactly what you’re booking.

Quick takeaways

• Your instructor is with you in the chamber to help you enter, fly and exit.
• Suit, helmet, goggles and earplugs are provided, along with a briefing and instructions.
• The instructor’s bodyflying show is included after your group’s sessions.
• Your package determines how many flights you get, so confirm the details before booking.
• Photos and video cost extra, and food and drinks are not included.
• Arrive early: plan to check in at the Neufahrn address one hour before your flight time.

What your first flight feels like

The wind tunnel is the heart of the experience. You’re not jumping from a plane; you’re learning to hold your body in a strong, controlled flow of air, with an instructor close by. That makes this a manageable way to try a new physical challenge without needing previous experience.

It can still be harder than it looks. Keeping your body steady and responding to instructions takes attention, and one flyer described the control as more difficult than expected. That challenge is part of the appeal, but it helps to arrive ready to listen, try adjustments and laugh at the odd wobble.

The basic session suits beginners because the team explains what to do before you enter the chamber. You aren’t expected to figure out the technique alone. The instructor assists as you go in, during the flight and as you come out, which is reassuring when the air first lifts you.

I’d think of the experience as a short, high-energy activity rather than a long training session. The booking includes a flight session, but the number of flights varies by package. Check the package details carefully if you want to know how much time you’ll spend in the tunnel.

Check-in, briefing and getting suited up

FlyStation Munich is at Bajuwarenstrasse 1, 85375 Neufahrn bei Freising. Your exact flight time is confirmed after booking, and availability affects the time you receive. Confirmation is expected within 48 hours of booking, subject to availability, so don’t assume the time you prefer is settled until you hear back.

The arrival instruction is easy to miss: be at the front desk one hour before your flight time. You’ll need to complete a flight waiver, then attend a short briefing and instruction class. Allow about two hours for the whole experience, even though the stated activity duration is around 90 minutes. That extra time leaves room for check-in, changing, the briefing and the post-flight show.

The team provides a flight suit, helmet, goggles and earplugs. You don’t have to rent or bring the core equipment, which makes the activity simpler to plan. Food and drinks are not included, though they are available to purchase.

The staff’s approach is one of the experience’s strongest points. The preparation is described as clear from the start, and named instructors Linda, Alex and Nick have been praised for their encouragement and friendly manner. A specific instructor is not guaranteed, but you can expect instruction to be part of the session, not an optional extra.

Arriving late is a real risk. The operator says late arrivals may miss their flight and will not receive a refund, so give yourself enough time to reach Neufahrn and check in. If you’re coming by public transport, the venue is noted as being near public transportation, but check your route and timing before setting out.

Your turn in the wind tunnel

When it’s time to fly, your instructor leads you into the chamber and assists through the three key moments: entering, flying and exiting. That hands-on support matters because the first few seconds can feel unfamiliar. You’ll be working with the air and your body at once, rather than simply standing back to watch a demonstration.

How many turns you get depends on the package you book. The base information does not specify a fixed flight count or exact time in the chamber, so don’t treat the 90-minute activity estimate as 90 minutes of flight. If the amount of flying time is important to you, ask what your selected package includes before paying.

Some people find the body position harder to control than they expected. That’s useful to know if you’re deciding between a single session and an add-on. One flyer found that paying extra for a higher finish made the experience feel complete, but the precise options and prices can vary. Ask what is available on your date rather than assuming an upgrade is part of the standard package.

The session can suit children as well as adults, but anyone under 18 must come with a parent or guardian. The operator says most people can take part, while advising against participation with a history of shoulder dislocations, acute injuries, communicable diseases or open wounds. If any of those apply, take that warning seriously and seek clarification before booking.

The instructor show and your certificate

Once you and your party have finished flying, an instructor performs a bodyflying show. It gives you a chance to watch the same air currents used in your session handled with skill and control. For a beginner, that contrast can make the physical demands clearer: the movement looks effortless when an expert does it, but it takes practice to steer your own body.

Afterward, the crew gives you a personalized certificate of accomplishment confirming your first flight. It’s a simple keepsake, but it makes the activity feel like a completed milestone rather than just another hour out.

Photos and video footage may be available to buy for an extra fee. Neither is included in the ticket price. If you want a record of the flight, ask about availability and cost before you finish up; that way, you can decide whether the extra expense is worth it.

Is $78.44 good value?

At $78.44 per person, the ticket bundles the briefing, flight equipment, an instructor-led wind-tunnel session, the instructor show and a personalized certificate. That’s a fair amount of structure and support for someone trying bodyflying for the first time, particularly since the basic gear is already covered.

The catch is that the ticket price alone doesn’t tell you how many flights you’ll make. Packages differ, and the amount of time you actually spend in the chamber is not stated as a fixed figure. So the value depends partly on the package you select and what you want from the activity. If you’re mainly curious to try it once, the included session may be enough. If you want more time or a higher finish, check whether a paid repeat flight or upgrade is available.

Photos, video, food and drinks are all extra. Those costs aren’t essential to the experience, but they can raise the final bill if you add them. I’d decide ahead of time whether a video matters to you, then treat any extra flights as an optional choice rather than a requirement.

Who should book this experience?

This is a good fit if you want an active indoor experience, are curious about bodyflying and appreciate having an instructor guide the first attempt. It also works for a family outing, provided anyone under 18 is accompanied by a parent or guardian and everyone meets the health guidance.

It’s less suitable if you have a prior shoulder dislocation, an acute injury, a communicable disease or an open wound. The experience involves physical movement in a powerful air current, so don’t brush off those restrictions. Anyone uncertain about their condition should check with the operator before booking.

The activity is offered in English, uses a mobile ticket and has a stated maximum of 100 participants. That is the maximum for the activity, not a promise about the size of your flight group. If a quieter or more personal session matters to you, ask what group arrangements to expect at your chosen time.

Should you book FlyStation Munich?

Book it if you want a novel, instructor-led challenge and are happy to trade a little coordination for a big burst of energy. The included briefing, equipment, chamber support and certificate make it easy for a beginner to try, while the instructor show adds a fun finish.

Before you commit, confirm your flight time and the number of flights in your package. Plan to arrive an hour early, budget separately for photos or video, and leave room for the visit to take about two hours. If those details suit your day, FlyStation offers a memorable first flight without needing to bring special gear or know what you’re doing in advance.
