While hot air balloon rides are generally considered safe, it’s essential to consult with your healthcare provider if you are pregnant. They can provide guidance based on your specific circumstances and advise whether a hot air balloon flight is a suitable activity during pregnancy. Your safety and comfort are the top priorities. Passengers must inform the pilot of any health problems or pregnancy.
Hot air balloons work on the principle that hot air is lighter than cold air. The balloon envelope is filled with heated air, which makes it buoyant. As the air inside the envelope heats up, it becomes less dense than the surrounding, cooler air, causing the balloon to rise. The pilot can control the ascent and descent by adjusting the temperature of the air inside the balloon, making hot air balloons a fascinating and simple yet effective mode of air travel
It’s crucial to be aware that the use of strong alcoholic drinks, drugs, and psychotropic substances is strictly prohibited throughout the pre-flight and in-flight phases of a hot air balloon ride. This policy is in place to ensure the safety of all passengers and to maintain a responsible and controlled environment during the entire balloon experience. Safety is paramount, so please adhere to these restrictions.
Before the flight, you’ll typically meet your pilot and crew at the launch site.
They’ll provide a safety briefing and may involve you in the inflation process, giving you a chance to see how the balloon is prepared for flight.
Hot air balloon rides are generally safe.
Professional pilots undergo rigorous training and certified, and the balloons are well-maintained. Safety measures include pre-flight safety briefings, regular equipment checks before each fly, and recertified by the Air Navigation Authority at least every 100 hours of fly or 12 month, and adherence to weather conditions for safe flying.
ExcellentBased on 122 reviewsVerifiedDLCSDee2023-09-16Highly recommend and big thanks to pilot Juozas and his team for making the nervous attendees feel comfortable and safe. Juozas and his team made us, that were very nervous about the flight, feel very comfortable. The flight turned out not scary at all and was beautiful. The views were amazing and we even saw some wild deer (and another group some wild boar). The landing was a little rough for the nervous attendees, but the pilot guided us through it perfectly.VerifiedLaima S2023-09-16Very good Amazing experience flying with the air baloon!

Vilnius er en av få,om ikke den eneste hovedstad/storby i Europa,man kan fly over med luftballong.VerifiedSatina2023-08-28Fantastic once in a lifetime experience Both the driver and pilot were kind and professional and we had a fantastic time. We flew over Trakai and the views were stunning and also had several other balloons around us which was very cool! Even if you’re afraid of heights this is possible because it starts and lands super slow and doesn’t seem that high.VerifiedManel I2023-08-25Flying over Vilnius in the summer A unique experience in good hands by a fair price.
