Skydive Oz | Moruya Heads

Terms & Conditions

By making a booking you agree to the following terms and conditions:

1) Check-in time:
All bookings are given a check-in time only, but this is not the time of your skydive. You will need to check-in and complete paperwork and a briefing prior to your skydive, so it is important that you arrive and check-in on time, otherwise your reservation will be likely to be re-scheduled to a later time.

Although the experience usually takes around 1.5 hours, we always recommend you plan for at least a half-day – this is because safety is our main priority when skydiving. Factors such as wind, cloud, rain, and other factors such as air traffic can affect the time it takes to complete your skydive activity.

2) Rescheduling:
To change your booking reservation time or date, we require a minimum 48 hours notice.

If you’re within 24 hours of your scheduled skydive or do not arrive for your skydive, you can not reschedule to another date or time and your deposit will be forfeited.

Please be aware the local weather forecasts are only estimates and weather can change for better or worse within minutes. We will contact you to reschedule if the weather is unsafe for skydiving on the day of your reservation. If you have to travel from afar, please call prior to your departure – on the day of your skydive. 

If, due to weather or after your arrival, you are unable to complete your skydive, your booking remains valid for 12 months from the original booking date and you may select another date.

At the time of booking all validity of packages, prices and offers must be confirmed by the customer booking the skydive. We reserve the right to refuse expired, invalid or unconfirmed offers or packages.

Booking insurance is available for tandem skydive bookings in Moruya only and is $22 per person.  

If you have opted to purchase booking insurance you can reschedule your jump to another date without loss of deposit. If you are unable to jump due to personal reasons, sickness, weather conditions and you are unable to rebook you are eligible for a full refund of $100. 

You are allowed unlimited changes within 12 months. After 12 months you will lose your original deposit. 

3) Cancellations:
Bookings are non-refundable but they are transferable.

Deposits are a per person payment and may not be used to pay the balance of another persons skydive. Paid deposits are transferable to another name, as a deposit. There are no refunds or transfers for persons, or members of a group, failing to turn up on the day of their booking without giving prior notice.

Cancellation Fee Clause (AFF)

  1. Introduction to Cancellation Fee: At Skydive Oz, we understand that circumstances may change, leading students to withdraw from their skydiving course. However, due to the limited availability of slots and the demand for our courses, a cancellation fee will apply under certain conditions as outlined below.
  2. Conditions for Cancellation Fee: A cancellation fee of $500.00 will be charged if a student decides to withdraw from the course after commencement, except in cases where the withdrawal is the result of a mutual decision between the student and the instructor based on the assessment that the student is not suited for skydiving.
  3. Rationale for Fee: This fee is instituted due to the limited nature of available slots in our courses. When a student enrolls, it potentially excludes another interested individual from participating. The fee is to compensate for the opportunity cost and resources allocated to the student who later decides to withdraw.
  4. Notification of Withdrawal: Students wishing to withdraw from the course after commencement must notify Skydive Oz in writing. The notification should include the reasons for withdrawal and any relevant documentation to support their case, especially if they believe the mutual decision clause applies.
  5. Review of Withdrawal Circumstances: Each withdrawal case will be reviewed on an individual basis. In circumstances where the withdrawal is due to extenuating or unforeseen situations, Skydive Oz reserves the right to waive the cancellation fee at its discretion.
  6. Processing of Cancellation Fee: If applicable, the cancellation fee will be processed using the payment method originally used for course enrollment. Students will receive a detailed invoice outlining the cancellation fee.
  7. Questions and Concerns: For any inquiries or further clarification regarding this cancellation policy, students are encouraged to contact Skydive Oz’s administrative office.

4) Aircraft are mechanical and periodically require servicing and maintenance:
We reserve the right to change aircraft type without notice. Aircraft changes, weather, Air Traffic Control (ATC) and other operational considerations may require us to change our operational altitude without notice.

Any unplanned Aircraft availability or other unexpected circumstances beyond our control preventing jumps proceeding: bookings may be changed to any other date within 12 months of the original booking date. Any refund request due to jumps not proceeding and customers being unable to choose alternative dates requires approval by senior management.

5) Medical conditions / Drugs / Alcohol:
Medical conditions or any other considerations that may affect your skydive should be discussed with us prior to your booking.  No alcohol / recreational drugs or medication that may affect or impair your judgment are to be taken.

6) Gift Vouchers:
Gift vouchers are non-refundable but are transferable.Vouchers will expire 36 months after purchase. Failure to check-in on your chosen date and time – or trying to reschedule within 48 hours of your booking time, will render your voucher invalid. Bookings are essential. Vouchers can not be used in conjunction with any other offer or promotion.

7) Weight:
Weight is an important factor in Aviation and Skydiving. It affects aircraft weight and balance, fuel allowances and climb rates. Weight is also an important factor on a Tandem jump. It affects equipment maintenance, your instructors workload and manufacturers limits and specifications on equipment. Please note that MAXIMUM weight for a skydive is 110kg for Male and 90kg for Female – for your own safety. Please contact us prior to your booking if you are over 100kg (male) or over 80kg (female) and 5ft or under.

8) Age:
The minimum age is 16 years old and all minors (16-18) must have a legal guardian present on the day of the jump.

9) Video and photo charges:
If all footage is unavailable due to camera failure or other unforeseen circumstances you will be refunded the cost of your media package.

If there is a partial camera failure resulting in partial footage the full charge will still apply as cameras are subject to harsh environmental conditions that are outside of our direct control and, although not common, camera failures can occur.

10) AFF and ‘A’-Licence bookings:

All AFF course bookings require an AU$1,100 deposit per person paid at the time of booking to secure the course allocation. The deposit is non-refundable.

If you would like to re-schedule to another course date, a minimum of 21 days notice is required, otherwise your deposit will be forfeited.

You may re-schedule your booking once to another course date within 12 months of your initial booking – if notice is given outside of 21 days.

More than one date transfer will incur a $50 processing fee, per change.
