I'm actually in working in Cameroon, but get 4 weeks off at a time for my job. I was planning on going to South Africa for AFF, but I have noticed that most of the schools there are only open on weekends. So now I am looking at one of the A in a week courses or maybe something in Spain.

A little while back I completed my first tandem jump at Skydive Dubai and knew I wanted to pick up skydiving as a hobby as soon as I hit the ground. I have been looking at skydiving schools and am trying to decide between a regular AFF program and one of the get the A license in a week programs. I work in Central Africa and was thinking about just hopping over to South Africa to complete the AFF course at Skydive Witbank because of the good rates and good reviews on dropzone. I was also considering heading back home to the US to do a 'A license in a week' course at Skydive Spaceland. Is the only difference that the AFF course I will do in a few weekends and the 'A license in a week' is just a straight shot through with extra dives at the end? Is it beneficial and will I learn more if I do all my beginning dives back to back in the 'A license in a week' or if I do the somewhat more leisurely pace of a regular AFF course?
