  • We will provide you with the exact meeting time and location details in advance of your scheduled flight. It’s important to arrive on time to ensure a smooth and timely take-off.

We want your balloon ride to be memorable for all the right reasons. If you’re expecting or have health issues, check with your doctor first. Our pilots need to know about any medical concerns before takeoff – just mention it when you arrive so we can make sure you’re comfortable.

Our balloons fly using the oldest principle in aviation – hot air rises. The pilot heats the air inside our balloon using our burners, and that warm air naturally wants to climb above the cooler outside air. Need to go higher? We add more heat. Ready to descend? We let some of that hot air cool down. It’s simple physics that delivers a magical experience. The different wind directions at various altitudes even let us steer by changing our height!

Arrive at our launch field about an hour before your scheduled flight.

You’ll find our crew already busy preparing for your adventure.

We’ll introduce you to your pilot while the team lays out the balloon.

Most guests enjoy watching (or helping!) as we begin inflation with our ground fans. When the envelope is partially filled, your pilot will test the burners – that’s when things get exciting!

Those powerful flames will slowly bring the balloon upright, transforming a pile of fabric into your aircraft.

This whole process takes about 30 minutes and gives you plenty of chances for photos before we welcome you aboard.

Hot air balloon rides maintain high safety standards through:

  • Rigorous pilot training
  • Strict balloon maintenance
  • Thorough pre-flight safety briefings
  • Equipment inspections
  • Recertification by Air
  • Navigation Authority every 100 flight hours or 12 months
  • Constant weather condition monitoring

Children must be at least five years old to fly. We also have to consider the total weight of all passengers on board.

Weight considerations: Total passenger weight affects flight capacity. Inform us when booking if you weigh over 100 kg or are flying with others so our flight coordinator can check availability.

Please note that the use of strong alcohol, drugs and psychotropic substances is strictly prohibited before and during the flight. This is for the safety of all passengers and to maintain responsible and controlled environment during the whole balloon experience. Safety first so please follow these rules.
