What you'll do:

You'll step out of a plane at 10,000 feet above the Poconos Mountains and free-fall over one of the most scenic landscapes on the East Coast, no experience needed, just a willingness to go.

• Pre-jump orientation – Your certified tandem instructor walks you through everything before you leave the ground: gear fitting, body position, what to expect during freefall, and how to land.

• Gear up and safety check – You'll be fitted with a full tandem harness and connected to your instructor, who handles all the technical work so you can focus on the jump.

• The freefall – You'll exit the aircraft and hit speeds around 120 mph for roughly 60 seconds of open-sky freefall above the Pocono Mountains.

• Parachute deployment – Your instructor deploys the chute, and the pace shifts completely; you drift down with a wide-open view of the Pennsylvania landscape below you.

• Landing and the moment after – You'll touch down at the dropzone where your friends and family can watch and meet you the second you land.

From the moment you arrive to the moment your feet hit the ground, the whole experience runs about two hours, and you leave having done something most people only ever talk about.

Why we love it for your group:

• No experience required – Tandem skydiving means your instructor does the technical work; you just show up and jump, making it genuinely accessible for first-timers.

• Spectator-friendly dropzone – Friends and family can watch the landing from the ground, so the whole group shares the moment even if they're not jumping.

• Large group accommodations – Pegasus handles groups efficiently, making it a strong pick for birthdays, bachelor or bachelorette parties, and corporate outings.

• Tri-state location – The facility sits about an hour from Pennsylvania, New York, and New Jersey, which means less travel and more time for the experience.

• Safety-first operation – Instructors here log thousands of jumps, and the aircraft and equipment are maintained to professional dropzone standards.
