Quick answer

How much does a tandem skydive cost in Europe in 2026?

Across the 28 European centres whose prices we checked on 18 October 2026, a tandem skydive without video costs €280 at the median, from €175 to €375 depending on the country, altitude, day and aircraft (helicopter included). Video is almost always charged on top of the advertised price. At PACMA, a tandem from 4,000 m costs €250, in the middle of winter.

Public prices checked on 18 October 2026 on each centre's official website. Method and sources at the bottom of the page.

By country

What is the median tandem price in each country?

For each of the 17 European countries in the index, the table gives the number of centres checked, the median price of a tandem without video and the gap between the lowest and highest priced centre, in the country's own currency, with no conversion. With one or two centres, a country gives a benchmark, not a national average.

Price per second

How much does one second of freefall cost?

Few centres state how long their freefall lasts. Dividing the tandem price by the seconds announced gives a simple benchmark; in the altitude-based price lists we checked (GoSkydive, Paracentrum Texel), each second costs less the higher you jump. At PACMA: about 50 seconds from 4,000 m for €250, or €5 per second of pure thrill.

Freefall durations as announced by each centre (approximate, depending on weight and body position). Prices in each centre's currency.

PACMABeni Mellal4,000 m≈ 50 s€250€5

Indicative benchmark: actual freefall time depends on weight, body position and opening altitude.

Video

How much does a tandem skydive video cost?

Among the 24 European centres that publish it, a video added to a tandem costs €80 at the median, from €30 to €110: instructor handcam, outside camera flyer or both, almost always on top of the advertised price. At PACMA, a camera flyer films you for €100 (video and photos), or €350 for the tandem and video pack.

Learning

How much do a first AFF jump and a full AFF course cost?

A first freefall jump with its ground school (AFF level 1, called PAC in France) costs €523 at the median across 8 European centres, and the full programme €1,595 across 7 centres; the number of jumps included varies by school. At PACMA: AFF first jump for €500 with two instructors, 7-jump AFF course for €1,300, in the winter sun.

Licensed skydivers

How much is a jump ticket for a licensed skydiver?

A licensed skydiver's jump ticket costs €39 at the median across 10 European centres, from €31 to €45 (helicopter included), and gear rental €22 per jump; altitude, minimum jump numbers and packing vary. At PACMA, a jump to 4,000 m from a Pilatus PC-6 costs €27, rental €10, packing €5: plenty of reasons to keep jumping all winter.

Method and sources

  1. Scope: 42 skydiving centres in 18 countries, including 2 benchmarks in the United States, plus PACMA, the publisher of this index, with its official prices. No ratings, no ranking.
  2. Source: public prices read on 18 October 2026 on the official website of the centre or of the jump operator, including VAT, in its currency, never on a marketplace. Each source page is linked in the table.
  3. Tandem: standard price without video at the reference altitude, on weekdays when the page distinguishes weekdays and weekends. The lowest published price (lower altitude, restricted day or slot) is given in the details. Promo codes and time-limited offers are excluded.
  4. Video: the cheapest video option added to the jump. When a centre only sells video as a package, we use the difference between the package and the jump alone, and say so.
  5. Empty cell: information not published on the source page. We never estimate a missing value.
  6. Currencies: every price stays in the centre's own currency, with no conversion. Sorting by price lists euro prices first, then each other currency in turn.
  7. Statistics: medians of the European centres that publish their prices in euros (country medians in the country's own currency); the US benchmarks and tandems sold with video included are excluded.
  8. Winter: “open in winter” = the source shows jump activity between December and March; “partly” = part of that period or some days only; “closed in winter” = the published season excludes December to March.
  9. Independence: no affiliate links, every link goes straight to the official website. Vertical T'Air, PACMA's partner, is flagged in its row.
  10. Updates: every season, between September and November. A price has changed? A centre wants a correction? Write to us: we correct after checking its official page.

Frequently asked questions

Message
What is the average price of a tandem skydive in Europe?

The median price of a tandem without video is €280 across 28 European centres checked on 18 October 2026, ranging from €175 to €375. The median is less distorted than the average by helicopter jumps, which cost much more. Add the video, €80 at the median, if you want to keep a filmed memory.

Why do tandem skydive prices vary so much between dropzones?

Four factors explain most of the gap: altitude, and therefore freefall time; the day, since 6 of the centres checked charge more at weekends, by €30 at the median; the aircraft, plane or helicopter; and video, almost always extra. The country and the season also play a part.

Where can you skydive in winter in Europe?

Of the 40 European centres checked, 3 show jump activity from December to March (Skydive Spain, Skydive Empuriabrava and Skydive Interlaken) and 4 jump for part of the winter; 7 publish a season ending between September and November. In Morocco, PACMA welcomes you from 5 December 2026 to 4 April 2027, every day, from 4,000 m.

Is the video included in the price of a tandem skydive?

Almost never: at the centres checked, video is an option added to the jump, from €30 to €110, €80 at the median. When a centre only sells its first tandem with video, we flag it in its row and leave it out of the medians. At PACMA, video and photos cost €100.

Are the prices in the index up to date?

Every price was checked on 18 October 2026 on the centre's official website, with a link to the source page and the date in the table. Centres can change their prices at any time, so check the price on their website before booking. We update the index every season.

Can I reuse the data from the index?

Yes. The data is published under a CC BY 4.0 licence and can be downloaded as a CSV file, one row per centre. You can use it in an article, a study or a comparison, as long as you credit “European Skydiving Price Index 2026-2027, PACMA” with a link to this page.
