A lot of wasted time! Checked in at the shop at 2pm (for a 2pm booking) and didn't leave until 3pm. Overbooked and too much sitting around. The actual sky dive itself was exceptional.

Latest Questions about Skydiving - 12000ft Nzone Skydive
If the Queenstown Skydiving does not go ahead due to weather, will I get a refund?
Comments
If NZONE Skydive Queenstown cancels the tour due to bad weather, you can reschedule for another day and if you're unable to reschedule you will be refunded for your trip. We recommend booking your skydiving for your first available date in Queenstown.
Are spectators allowed to watch from the Skydive Queenstown drop zone?
Comments
Spectators are welcome at the Skydive Queenstown dropzone. If you have your own transport, we recommend that spectators make their own way to the dropzone. On occasion, subject to available seats, they may be room for spectators to catch the NZONE Skydive shuttle bus, however this is on request on the day and spaces are not guaranteed.
What should I wear to go skydiving in Queenstown?
Comments
NZONE Skydive Queenstown will provide you with overalls to wear over the top of your clothes, but you will want to be wearing something comfortable and easy to move around in. Gym gear is most appropriate, alongside closed toe shoes such as trainers (which you can do up extra tight).
Can I use my own GoPro for videos and pictures when skydiving in Queenstown?
Comments
When skydiving in Queenstown with NZONE, you are not permitted to use your own GoPro for safety reasons. You are welcome to purchase a photo and video package when you check in on the day.
I want to book the tandem Skydiving in Queenstown in the month of April. Is April good time for Skydiving?
Comments
Yes, April is a great time of year to skydive normally. NZONE Skydive in Queenstown does operate all year, but early autumn is often the best time to be in Queenstown.
Is it better to go skydiving in Queenstown in the morning or afternoon?
Comments
We recommend booking your Queenstown skydive in the morning as winds tend to be lower. Another benefit for booking the skydive in the morning is that you can reschedule to the afternoon if the weather is not suitable in the morning (subject to availability).
My group of 6 would like to go skydiving in Queenstown. Would we all be in the same plane together?
Comments
Yes, your group would be able to be in the plane together, there is a maximum of 9 x paired jumpers at NZONE Skydive Queenstown.
In Queenstown, do you skydive by yourself or in tandem with a skydiving instructor?
Comments
You will skydive in tandem with your NZONE Skydive Queenstown jumpmaster. It is not possible to jump on your own or in tandem with another customer.
if I go skydive in Queenstown in November, will there still be snow left?
Comments
It is usually warmer at the end of November, but the higher peaks might still have some snow. If you would like to see plenty of snow on your Queenstown skydive, we recommend going between July and September.
If it's raining, will I still be able to go skydiving in Queenstown?
Comments
Skydiving is weather dependent so rain, as well as wind, can cause cancellations. A weather-check is done 30 minutes before each departure as a safety regulation method. Skydives can be rescheduled to different departure dates & times in case the weather is not allowing to skydive.
Is there any insurance coverage , if so what is the cost and what do you get for it
Comments
There is no insurance coverage. You will need to see if your holiday insurance covers Skydiving.
Hi nzone I am planning my trip in end November.. is it good time skydive.. the rains won't be a problem?
Comments
Heya, November last year was GLORIOUS! The beginning of summer, and yet there are still some snow capped mountains left from winter. November is a great time for it. If it rains you can reschedule :D
I'll be in NZ through march. Will there be snow capped mountains ? Or is it too early ?
Comments
It hard to say as the snow can be very random on the mountains. In general though i would say March is too early for the snow capped mountains.
Will be going to Queenstown end of this september, what time will be good for sky diving?
Comments
All year round is good for Skydiving here! Summer is peak on non windy days. September is pretty good because you still have the snow capped mountains to see and yet the temperature is a little warmer than in peak winter.
Hi, we will be driving to the NZone skydive shop for our skydiving activity. May I know if we will be landing in the same area or will there be transport back to the shop where we parked our car?
Comments
Hi Mun Ying, the drop zone is a short drive from the shop and you will be driven back after your skydive. The trip takes about 3.5 hours in total
Hi, I was wondering what does price include? Does it come with video and photos or is it separate. Kindly replay
Comments
Hi Elezabath, the price is just for the skydive itself. Photos and videos are a separate cost. It's $189 for handicam photos and videos, $259 for freefall photos and videos or for both it's $329. These can be purchased on the day
Hello!
Good day to you.
Are there any female skydivers?
Comments
Heya, Thanks for contacting us. There are female skydivers. At no point can they guarantee that a female will be available on the day but they can try their very best to organise it for you.
Hi, we were looking to book for skydiving but was wondering how long does the whole trip take starting from the shop in Queenstown till the end? Thanks.
Comments
The entire duration for the tandem skydiving in Queenstown is about 3 - 3.5 hours. Including checking in at the skydive shop in town, transfers to and from the skydive base located 20 minutes out of town and the pre jump briefing and jump itself.
do you do vouchers? we are coming over from Australia next year just don't know when and this will be a birthday present for someone
Comments
Yes you can certainly book a gift voucher for skydiving in Queenstown or any other activities via our website. To book the skydive voucher simply click on the Book Now button and tick the "I want this to be an open dated Gift Voucher" box then follow the prompts. We will then email your gift voucher straight back to you.
can i wear my glasses when doing it?
Comments
Yes you can wear your glasses when skydiving in Queenstown. You are given plastic skydiving goggles and you can wear your glasses or contact lenses under these.
Can I skydive in the winter as well?
Isn't it too cold to do it?
How's the temperature in the sky?
Comments
Hi Moy, yes you certainly can skydive in Queenstown during winter. The skydiving operates all year round. The air temperature isn't actually too much different to the ground temperature so you won't freeze. You will just need to dress warmly and you are given a skydive suit as well.
hi what are the prices with videos and images included
Comments
Hi Chris. If you wish to purchase videos or photos of your Queenstown skydive, you can organise this on the day when you are out at the Nzone dropzone before your skydive. The cost is: photos (20 printed images) cost $189, USB video is $189 or purchase both the photos and video for $229.
Hi all,
Please can you let me know what the latest departure you do each day? Looking to go on a combo package which gets back to Queenstown at 13:00 - can we skydive straight after this?
Many thanks
Simon.
Comments
Hi Simon. Yes the skydiving in Queenstown departs hourly all day. There is a 1.30pm, 2.30pm and 3.30pm departure. I'd suggest booking the 2.30pm so you have time to grab some lunch in town before your 2.15pm check in at the skydive shop.
Would I be able to skydive wearing my prescription glasses? thanks
Comments
Hi Brandon, you are given goggles to wear Skydiving in Queenstown and you could wear your prescription glasses under your goggles if you can fit them on.
hii!! are the adventure activities open in mid april??
Comments
Hi Aashka. Yes all the adventure activities including the skydiving in Queenstown are open and in full swing in April. In fact the skydiving and most other activities operate all year. As skydiving is weather dependent, we recommend booking it for one of your first days in Queenstown so that if the weather is no good for flying then you can reschedule to another day or receive a full refund.
I am wondering about the importance of the weight restriction. I am very close to 100kgs and am wondering if it is still safe to participate for someone very close to the weight limit. Thanks and please let me know.
Comments
Hi Joseph
Hello, i will be 25 weeks pregnant when looking to do it. do you allow pregnant people and is it safe to do when pregnant?
i'm thinking maybe not but thought i'd ask since all my friends are doing when in queenstown.
Comments
Hi Olivia, Nzone Skydive do not have a policy against pregnant women jumping as you jump at your own risk however they do not advise it. At 25 weeks pregnant I would suggest waiting and sit this activity out.
How many people have you lost?
Comments
Hi Peter,
When you say lost, I presume you mean how many people have died sky diving with NZONE. The answer in zero. They have a great safety record and as someone that has jumped with them, you can't go wrong.
my wife and i are planning to skydive in feb, but she insists on a female instructor with her when she jumps. just wondering if its a possibility
Comments
Hi Tanmay. There is only one female skydive instructor currently employed in Queenstown. Like the other instructors, she works on a rotational roster so there is no guarantees she will be working on the day you both decide you want to jump. That being said, we have been advised by the reservations manager that you can put a request in to jump with her and if she is available on the day then you can jump with her. For your information and your wife's piece of mind, all the male instructors are very professional and courteous.
Can I take my own go pro?
Comments
Hi Phil. Unfortunately for safety reasons, you are not allowed to take any camera or video equipment up in the plane with you when you go skydiving in Queenstown. If you do want video or photos of your skydive you can book a freefall photographer who will skydive next to you. This can be organised on the day when you check in for your skydive.
Hi I was just wandering what the free fall time is for 9000ft and 12000ft? I want to go this week. Thanks!
Comments
Hi Cassie, the freefall time from the 9000ft jump is 25 seconds, from the 12000ft jump it's 45 seconds and from the 15000ft jump its 60 seconds.
can i skydive alone ?
Comments
Hi Gaurav, all Nzone skydive's are tandem skydives so it will be you with an instructor. You are unable to skydive on your own.
If I want to book a 12000ft jump and my friend books a 15000ft jump on the same time and day would we go up in the same plane?
Comments
Hi Andrea. Yes, if you book a 12,000ft tandem skydive with Nzone skydive in Queenstown and your friend books the 15,000ft jump then you will be able to go up in the same plane together.
Approximately how many photos are taken on the jump? I done one before where we got about 100 photos from the instructions wrist camera and about 100 of my own (had camera on bungy cord attached to jump suit). Is the camera set to 3 second bursts or anything?
Comments
Hi Maggie, on the Nzone jump you can opt to have the freefall photos where a photographer will jump with you and you will get 20 high-res 6" x 8" colour printed photos, high res digital images on CD and online image access to watch you photo slideshow along with 8 personalised postcards.
Can i bring my own camera for photos? does someone jump out of the plane to take pics or is it on the instructors wrist?
Comments
Hi Noreen, unfortunately you can't take your own camera skydiving with Nzone in Queenstown. If you are wanting the photos and/or videos a photographer jumps out with you and it costs $179 for the DVD or photos or if you want them both then the total cost is $219.
We are holidaying in New Zealand early september. Wouldyou recommened skydiving at this time of year??
Regards
Jessie
Comments
Hi Jessie. Skydiving operates all year in Queenstown. Winter is often the best time of year to skydive as the weather is calmer with less winds and rain than summer and the mountains are snow covered which makes for some amazing scenery! Skydiving is weather dependent though so we do recommend booking for one of your first days in Queenstown so that if the weather is bad and you can't skydive you can reschedule to another day or receive a full refund from us.
Do you get photos or a Dvd with these jumps??
Comments
Hi Lauryn, the photos and dvd are not included in this price. These are available to purchase on the day directly from Nzone if you would like them.
we are palnning a trip to NZ and want to sky dive. one person in our group weighs 226lbs and i see the cut off is 220lbs. will we be weighed before the trip? would a few pounds over matter?
Comments
Hi Rachel yes 220lbs (100kg) is the limit for skydiving and they will not take over unfortunately, even if it is just by a little bit. They do weigh you on the day so if someone's booked thinking they are borderline but are over on the day then a refund will be provided.
My son and I plan on being in Queenstown in late July. Know it is cold there and wondered if you provide the appropriate clothing/gear so we don't freeze to death. Looking forward to our first skydive...
Comments
Hi Jeff, you are given overalls to do the skydive in however you will need to dress warmly underneath, plenty of layers!
Are there options on the 15000 feet not to do tandem ?
Comments
Hi Dylan, unfortunately there are no options to do a solo skydive. All skydives at Nzone Skydive Queenstown are tandem.
Hi, im wondering if there is there a spectators fee?
Comments
Hi Nicole spectators of the Nzone skydive are welcome to go and watch the skydiving for free as long as there is room in their bus. This cannot be guaranteed though and is only available on the day. If there is no space in the bus spectators are welcome to drive themselves out to watch.
What is the maximum weight you will accept for a sky dive? Would 110kg be OK?
Comments
Hi Jenny. Unfortunately skydiving regulations at Nzone have a weight limit of 100kg and are unable to accept any heavier. An alternative option however could be a bungy jump. 110kg is fine for a bungy.
Hi! Is skydiving available all year round? Am planning to visit in May.
Comments
Hi Dan, yes that is correct, Nzone Skydiving in Queenstown operates all year round.
hey i was wondering how much was the dvd and photo combo be????
Comments
Hi Amanuel. The Nzone Queenstown skydive freefall photos & video cost $179 each or $219 if you purchase both. Your tandem jump master does not take the photos of you. If you choose to purchase the photos or video then you will have a personal photographer jump out of the plane with you and capture your tandem jump.
Would you happen to have a lighter instructor or something for my fat arse boyfriend who weighs in at 110kg??
Comments
Hi Lisa, unfortunately Nzone Skydive stick to their 100kg weight limit and cannot go over it. Maybe look into something else such as the 134m Nevis Bungy (max weight 127kg).
How long is the free fall for the 9000ft and 15000 ft Nzone Skydives?
Comments
Hi Sophie, the free fall for the Nzone 9000ft Skydive is 30 seconds and 60 seconds free fall for the 15000 ft.
