  • We had our skyjump all booked and had made reservations to The Top of The World for dinner before we flung ourselves 109 stories off the building. Before leaving our hotel we had called skyjump to ask about clothing and shoes because I was trying to juggle the 110 degree weather, formal dining and adrenaline sports into a single but awesome outfit. The nice lady was very helpful and ended the phone call with "see you soon!" and we joyfully skip off to the Stratosphere for what should be an epic evening of awesome food and falling. (BTW you get a jump suit and can be given booties if you wear something unpractical like flip flops so really... dress formal and for the heat and then cover in a jump suit) Rumor has it, when skyjump first opened, jumpers were scaring the bajesus out of Top of the World dinners... resulting in stained shirts, broken dishes and some angry folks. So TOTW started to explain to dinners what was happening in the elevator up. Unfortunately on the way up the elevator guy tells us skyjump is closed due to weather and we won't get to see the jumpers. I'm disappointed but assume it must be recent and maybe it would open up again later - we just talked to a skyjump lady after all. 30 ... 40 minutes pass and we still haven't got our cancellation call from skyjump. Eventually we go down there to figure out what's going on... it's been closed all day and they "haven't gotten around to calling people in our time block yet" ... our time block was 30 minutes away by this point! First off, do they not understand we had come from quite far down the strip to make it there for this? There is almost NOTHING else to do out there - so people are going to be upset for the wasted taxi we'd sure have already sat down in to make it there if we weren't already there for dinner. Why didn't the girl I talked to tell me "we've had high winds and have been closed - I'm not sure your jump will go ahead" when I talked to her shortly before? I find it really interesting that we NEVER got a cancellation call from them even though we never gave them our names as we walked up and got a bit upset with them. Benefit of the doubt they assumed who we were and left us off the list of calls but maybe they just didn't call ANYONE and were making everyone come up there for nothing. Lesson to anyone who wants to take the leap.... 1. Make reservations in advance and 2. call them before you make the trek out there to see if they are running (it's really far away from most of the strip).
