Helpful Hints For Your Balloon Ride:
Certain weight restrictions may apply.
Rides last about an hour, but the whole event is about three hours, so leave your schedule flexible!
Hot air ballooning is an extremely weather sensitive sport, and each flight is subject to cancellation due to adverse weather conditions. While we are anxious for you to experience the thrill of flight, our top priority is always safety. The pilot has the final authority on the status of the flight; if it is necessary, we will be happy to postpone your flight to a later date.
Flights are always scheduled in the early morning or in the evening, as these are the times when the weather is most favorable. Exact meeting time varies with the time of year, but we do fly year round.
Dress comfortably; there are no extreme changes in weather because we don't climb that high. Footwear should anticipate field conditions including wet grass.
Bring a camera with extra batteries. Each balloon flight is a unique experience; since we just drift with the wind, our exact course and destination can never be predicted. Our ground crew follows us during the flight, and meets us at our landing site. |
