In the event that the complaint is unjustified, the complainant shall be responsible for payment of a fee due for the complaint’s inspection. A complaint shall be deemed justified if the skydiving “Tunnel Time” is less than the purchased “Tunnel Time” by no less than five seconds, and all according to the video footage.
  4. We make our best efforts to display accurate prices in publications, on the Website, in price proposals and in our online booking system.
