Why Choose Blue Ridge Ballooning?

Our pilots are experienced professionals: Our pilots have over 30 years experience and over 1600 hours of logged flight time. See our Staff Page for more information.

We offer a number of ride packages: Our guests can choose the ride package that best suits their interest. See our Rides Page for more details.

We offer private flights: If a guest would like to reserve the whole balloon for a private flight, we offer that option. See our Rides Page for details.

We fly smaller balloons: Many ride operators fly balloons that carry 8 to 10 passengers. Our balloons carry no more than 4 to 5 passengers. This allows our guests to have a great view and a more personal experience with the pilot and crew.

We are a full time balloon ride operation: Blue Ridge Ballooning is run by full time balloon pilots. We are open for flights year round.

We are a family run business: We are family owned and operated and are focused on the interests of our guests.
