AJ Hackett suspends Macau operations

AJ Hackett suspends Macau operations
February 17, 2020

AJ Hackett have suspended AJ Hackett Macau Tower operations following the Macau Government’s mandate from the 4th February 2020, stating that all businesses that fall under Macau law n.47/98/M will need to close their operations in the wake of the Coronavirus.

AJ Hackett Macau Tower announced the temporary closure of its operations from 5th February 2020 until further notice and no sooner than in 15 days’ time.

Delivering the thrilling experience of a 233 metre plunge on the world’s highest commercial Bungy Jump (building), AJ Hackett Macau Tower is described as the world's most extreme bungy tower, located in the heart of downtown Macau. 

AJ Hackett have advised that their focus is to assist the authorities in minimising further spread of virus COVID-19 throughout the Macau region and the health and safety of their team.

They are continuing to monitor advice from government and health agencies and look forward to being able to reopen when it is declared safe to do so.

The company fully supports this decision out of respect for those people who are personally impacted by the virus and the continued safety of their own team members and guests.

AJ Hackett is offering all those who have bookings the choice to either reschedule to a later date or to receive a full refund.
