AFF or Airwareness

AFF or Airwareness – Which course is right for you?

The bottom line:
Not sure whether to choose the AFF course or Airwareness + A license? This blog explains the difference, who each course is for, and how you can learn to skydive with a holiday vibe at a dream location.

Learning to skydive is an adventure, but which course fits you best? At Airboss, we offer two great options: the AFF course and the Airwareness + A-license program. No experience required for either! Here’s how they compare so you can choose with confidence.

AFF – Your first step to solo skydiving

The AFF course (Accelerated Freefall) is the perfect way for beginners to learn to skydive independently. You start with 6 jumps alongside experienced instructors and learn all the essentials. After these first jumps, you continue solo. The result is a globally recognized license, allowing you to skydive anywhere in the world.

The AFF course takes one week and is ideal for those wanting to become solo skydivers quickly and effectively.

Perfect for you if you:

  • Have never jumped before, but want to fly solo soon.
  • Want to experience the freedom of solo skydiving.
  • Are looking for a short, intense course.

Airwareness + A-license – The complete package

Want to take it further? Choose the Airwareness + A-license program. It starts with AFF, then continues with 25 jumps to build your skills. After completing the A-license, you’re certified to jump solo, with more experience and confidence.

The Airwareness + A-license program runs for two weeks and gives you a deep dive into skydiving with coaching, structure, and progression.

Choose this option if you:

  • Want to go beyond the basics after AFF.
  • Seek more jumps and real experience.
  • Are ready for a full-on, immersive learning experience.

Learn to skydive with a holiday vibe

At Airboss, it’s not just about learning to jump — it’s about experiencing the skydiving lifestyle. Whether you choose the AFF course or the Airwareness + A-license program, you’ll train in one of two fantastic locations: France in summer, or Morocco in winter.

In Royan, you’ll jump close to the Atlantic Ocean in a relaxed, adventurous setting. You build your skills while enjoying the view, the vibe, and an amazing community.

In Morocco, you train under the sun at the base of the Atlas Mountains. It’s the perfect place to challenge yourself and enjoy culture, nature, and freedom in between jumps.

Picture this: after a morning of skydiving, you chill on the beach or share dinner with fellow jumpers. Every jump deepens the experience.

Whichever course you choose, the perfect setting awaits

Whether you go for the AFF course or the Airwareness + A-license, Royan and Morocco offer the ideal environment to learn, grow, and enjoy.
