It was just okay -- not the thrill / rush I was hoping for. I did it tandem; you're strapped to an instructor, so you get a longer free fall (45 seconds vs. about 10) and less training. It's a win-win. I had to take a training class which is somewhere between 30 minutes and an hour.

Best Answer: Well, I just checked the rate, and it is at 116.7yen = $1.00 That is a little deceptive because they add a 3yen per dollar service fee when you exchange both ways. So, if you are exchanging US$ into Japanese Yen, and the exchange rate is 116-$1, you are actually getting only 113 yen to the dollar.If you are going the other way around, and exchanging Japanese yen into US$ and the rate is $1.00-116yen you will be paying 119 yen to get $1.00.The best way would be for you to find someone in Japan who is a friend and do a straight exchange so you don't lose that service fee.At this moment it's 116.74 yen to the dollar...BUT! It is constantly changing. You can check the current prices on line at: http://finance.yahoo.com/currency ï½And the current price isn't usually what you get when you exchange.
