Qualifying birthday package purchases
A purchase of a Take Flight, Cloud Nine or Sky Master birthday package at a participating corporate-owned iFLY location creates one entry when the FREEBDAY code is used at checkout. The purchase must occur during the promotion, although the flight date can be scheduled later.
Several locations are excluded, including Colorado Springs, Detroit, Jacksonville, San Diego/Oceanside, Virginia Beach, Miami and Wilmington. Check the official list before paying.
How to enter without buying a package
The mail-in route requires a handwritten letter with full name, email, phone number, mailing address and a statement of at least 25 words explaining why the entrant would like to win an iFLY birthday experience.
The envelope must be postmarked by September 30 and received by October 7 at the address in the rules. The limit is one mail-in entry per person.
What the winner receives
The prize is an iFLY birthday package valued at up to $1,444. The exact components are determined by the sponsor, and the package must be used within 365 days after acceptance.
It is nontransferable and cannot be exchanged for cash. Federal, state and local taxes, plus expenses not explicitly included, remain the winner’s responsibility.
Selection and notification
A random drawing is held under the sponsor’s supervision within 30 days after the sweepstakes ends. The selected entrant is contacted through the email associated with the purchase or included in the mail-in letter.
Keeping the email active matters because verification and acceptance instructions will arrive through that channel. Incomplete eligibility information can lead to forfeiture.
Before choosing the purchase route
Confirm that the package and location qualify, enter the promotional code before completing checkout and retain the purchase confirmation. The code is important because the rules use it to confirm the automatic entry.
Buying extra elements outside the named packages does not necessarily create another chance. Follow the stated entry limits rather than assuming each transaction qualifies.
Official rules and source
Read the official source before entering, especially near the deadline or if the sponsor publishes an amendment.
