CloudDining: The Story Behind Dinner in the Sky

Have you ever looked out of an aircraft window and wished you could sit among the clouds with a meal? Sky dining makes that wish real.

The concept

FlyDining lifts a dining table around 50 metres (about 160 feet) above the ground using a telescopic crane. A high-grade metal frame seats up to 24 guests in comfortable seats that rotate through 180°, each secured with aircraft-standard safety belts.

How we keep it safe

• Designed to EN 13814 and ISO 17842-1:2015.
• Crew secured with safety harnesses.
• Safety checks before and after each session.
• Weekly trial runs and maintenance.

Not only dinners

Despite the name, the experience is not limited to dinner. It can host breakfast, lunch and dinner, and celebrations such as birthdays, engagements, anniversaries, Christmas and New Year’s Eve.

It also suits business events: product launches, promotions, publicity, press conferences, round tables and road shows. See more stories for ideas.

Where it began in India

The first FlyDining session in India took off in September 2018 in Bangalore. Read the full story on our History page.
