Jumeirah and Dubai are experiencing a comeback of one of its most popular thrill experiences. Skydive Dubai is now officially open and celebrated the occasion with an intense ‘Raise the Flag’ jump with a 13,000-foot drop onto the legendary Palm Jumeirah. Against the backdrop of the coastline of Dubai, the symbolic jump was not only an indication of a reopening but a way of unity and hopefulness as the city progressed.
