I would NOT recommend Urban Air for birthday parties. You would think for the hefty price of their birthday parties, it would be as seamless and less stressful as possible and that is NOT what you will find when booking your party here. Save yourself the trouble and look elsewhere. List of grievances to follow:
-you pay per water bottle for off brand water and $18 per pizza that was the dollar tree version of digiornos. You are not allowed to even bring your own water to this establishment.
-sister (head of party) has an allergy that prevents her from eating a majority of foods. When asking if she could bring a personal portion meal so she could eat with everyone comfortably, she was told that was fine but then right after the phone call, she received an email from the company prying into what her allergy is, etc. What an invasion of privacy for the sake of a money grab..
-filled out the waiver online days prior to the party then was told they couldn't find it. Luckily I had a copy saved, which they did accept but how can you not find relevant paperwork on the day of the party?
-received a pair of socks that were 5x too big for my 18 month old. Upon asking the party helper if my son could wear his own socks (which had grips on the bottom and was shown to the party helper), she looked dumbfounded and told me I could go back up front and ask for another pair. I stated that if they had another pair, wouldn't they have given them to me upon entry? She then snappily asked if I wanted the manager, to which I agreed. The manager came over and was less than helpful. I, again, asked if my son could wear his own socks, explaining the socks provided were much too large and posed a safety risk and she said no. I then asked if my son's spot could just be refunded and she said that she could only refund any kids over the minimum required amount, which was 10 and we had 10 kids, so no. She stated that they were waiting on a shipment of small socks then suggested I put the large socks on my toddler and try to roll them up the best I can (????). So I asked her to explain the logic behind making us sign waivers that removed their responsibility from injuries then encouraging me to put my son in an unsafe situation. She had nothing to say and I thanked her for the lack of assistance.
-my sister (head of party) went to pay for the rest of the party (not privy to how that process works; half now half later?) and the general manager asked her how the party was. She informed him it wasn't great but she didn't need to talk about, she was ready to go. He pried for an answer so she began explaining her stresses regarding the party and the same manager from earlier approaches and inserts herself in their conversation, asking why she didn't unload all of the inconveniences when she asked my sister. How this woman still works there is a mystery to me. How can you be a manager but incite confrontation and have no interest in resolving customers issues? She will lend to the failure of this company, no doubt.
-while letting my son play in the trampoline area, another child (at least 7-8 years old), approached my 18 month old son and took the basketball from him and began playing with it. There is a serious lack of responsible supervision overseeing all of the play areas.
Needless to say, I repeat, find another venue to avoid an experience like ours. You will leave feeling unsatisfied, disrespected and like you have wasted your money and time. read more
