Check for discounts or combo deals if you plan on doing other activities in Queenstown. I saved a bit by booking paragliding and a bungee jump together. It’s a great way to experience the adrenaline at a better price!

If you’re able, arrive about 30 minutes early to fill out forms and get prepped. I ran a bit late and felt rushed, missing some of the best info from the instructors

I recommend wearing comfortable clothes and sturdy shoes. You'll be surprised how much you move around during the flight. I wore flip-flops, and it wasn’t the best choice.

Don’t skip the photo and video package they offer. I was hesitant, but the footage is absolutely worth it! It makes for great memories and you wouldn't want to miss those epic views.

I suggest checking the weather forecast the day before. If it looks cloudy or rainy, you might want to reschedule for a clearer day. I did, and it made all the difference.

If you're planning to do all three activities, consider getting a combo package. It saves you some cash instead of paying each one separately, which can get pricey!

Make sure to book your slots in advance especially on weekends. I waited two hours because I thought I could just walk in. That was a rookie mistake!

I think the afternoon rides around 3 PM have fewer people, which made for a more relaxed experience. You get to enjoy the scenery without feeling rushed!

Book your KJet trip online in advance to snag some great discounts – I saved a bit doing this! Plus, you get to skip some of the ticket line when you arrive
