Chase the valley convergence,
from ₹10,700
The real thing. We chase the day's convergence down the valley and land wherever the air lets us — then a Gliders jeep comes and gets you. Booked by weather window, not by clock.
Nothing is charged now. Full refund or a free reschedule if the weather doesn’t cooperate.

Anyone can sell you a flight. We'd rather show you the checklist.
Manali has a lot of operators and not all of them fly by the book. Here is exactly what happens before your feet leave the ground — ask any operator in the valley the same questions.
- 01
Pilots who are actually certified
Every tandem pilot holds a current APPI or DGCA-recognised tandem rating, carries their licence on them, and has logged a minimum of 500 tandem flights before they ever fly a guest. Ask to see the card — we like being asked.
- 02
Gear with a paper trail
EN-certified tandem wings retired at 300 hours regardless of how they look. Reserve parachutes repacked every 90 days with the date written on the outside. Every harness, carabiner and helmet logged with a serial number and an inspection date.
- 03
A real no-fly rule
Wind window checked at launch, mid-station and landing before the first flight of the day, then every hour. If the numbers are wrong we ground everything and refund you in full. We cancel roughly one day in nine during season — that is the point.
- 04
Radio, ground crew, insurance
Your pilot is on radio with the landing zone for the entire flight. A first-aid-certified crew member is on the meadow whenever a wing is in the air. Every guest is covered by accident insurance included in the price, not sold as an extra.
Run before every flight
Eight items. No exceptions.
