First I’m going to start this post by saying this is NOT an April Fools joke. Phoenix Global, the same guys who’ve been bringing you extreme activities like bungee jumping and the upcoming paragliding festival are going to be bringing skydiving to Kuwait.
The skydiving will be handled by a Finnish team and will take place from May 22nd to May 27th. The plane will take off from Sheikh Saad Terminal and you’ll land at the Green Island. It’s obviously a tandem jump and the cost is KD180 including photos and videos. There are limited spots available so if you want to book yours you can whatsapp them on 94004335 or call them on 22621766.

I will pay you KD180 just dont do this 🙂 #April’s_fool
lol i’m doing this
No need, he already blogged about it. That’s payment already.
That’s a lot of money for jumping off a plane.
You can book it via Mr.Babu for 90 KD.
Were is babu … Gimme contact no. Of the babu
it was a joke, he meant order it online from mrbabu.com if its cheaper. Note, just in case I wasn’t clear, you can’t actually order skydiving from mrbabu 😛
180 KD is not entirely unreasonable. It’s usually 300-400 dollars in the States.
No its not. Its $200-250 in the US, which equates to less than KD70. So its entirely, extremely, fully, completely, and utterly unreasonable!
Well it’s not fair when compared to the US where there is more than one company that offers the service. the best comparison is Dubai where it costs KD160. When you consider the fact they have it all year round there and here it’s just for a few days, KD180 seems reasonable.
sky dive rates in dubai starts from 40KD.. sorry your point is invalid @mark
Not sure where you got KD40 but according to their website it clearly says:
Tandem Skydive + video DVD + still photos AED 1,999
https://www.tandemrs.com/skydivedubai/
AED 1,999 = KD160
And here again on their main page https://www.skydivedubai.ae/tandem.html
“Tandem Jump with digital stills & video for only 1,999 AED”
Yup, that’s right. A friend of mine paid around 150kd when he went skydiving in Dubai.

how can i buy Skydiving Parachute in kuwait..
order it online i guess
but ur not in the States!!!!
I live in the states and it only costs 170 usd for the first jump and 45 usd after that
Reckon it’s reasonable , considering the nearest destination is dubai. Calculate ur air tickets , hotel , commute. Unless otherwise u are going on a vacation.
So by this logic, drinking water should cost KD5 per liter?
It’s KD160 in Dubai so you would only be saving KD20 if you lived there.
Oh gosh….Im waiting for a post where you say that your feet are firmly planted on the ground…gardening even…yikes! I get dizzy walking across the ground floor of The Avenues and nearly have a nervous breakdown using the escalators. hats off to you! xoxoxo
Wow I would love to do this one..
Need sponsors!
u need to borrow my plane for the event lemme know..il give u reasonable rates
pretty expensive for me , but hey for dudes with cash to blow there is just another sport now.
just get a loan, its kuwait..
hahahhaha
Personally, I suggest you not to pay that money for this activity.As a person who tried tandem skydiving in Spain, Turkey, USA, I believe that 180KD is too expensive.if you pay 50% of that money you can do it in Spain.in Turkey it costs 30% of the price which is mentioned above.
If you say “thats Kuwait we can pay this money” they will ask for more money next time.What is the point? We are fools?
Hi .. Could I get a loan??
For What ??
To Jump out of a Plane .. sky dive !!
Collateral???
Gee I dont have much but then again I really dont know if I am gonna live to pay the loan back!!
Loan Denied ????
But this is Kuwait!! Loams are supposed to be a dime a dozen and subsequently written off!!
Still Denied ??
Gee thanks! You Suck !! I am heading to Starbucks now…
Market demand + capacity to pay = exorbitant price.
Just because “they can afford to pay”, all these novelty companies jack up their prices.
When is this happening again ? I really wanted to do this
Its been been post pond several time!! Now december still didnt happen although we paid!!!! When r u planning to do it??????
