The benefit of flying with our local company is that we can fly in a variety of locations nearby giving us a substantially better chance to fly. We will still be local and get to see other balloons in the air (if they fly) without dealing with the enormous traffic issues.

Please note that everyone in your party must be able to get in and out of the balloon basket unassisted, there is no door that swings open, you will be required to climb in and out.
Our chase team will meet you at a local parking lot, gather everyone into our chase vehicles and the adventure starts!
We will drive to a designated spot where we will inflate the balloon (it varies each flight depending on the wind direction and speed), take our flight with our ground crew chasing us to our unknown destination to pack up the balloon. We encourage our passengers to help out to get the full experience of ballooning, although you don’t have to participate in the setting up or taking down of the balloon if you prefer.
Once the balloon is all packed up, we will bring you back to the meeting location and gather to have our Post-Flight Refreshments. You are able to choose when your experience is completed once we arrive back at our meeting location; this experience is roughly 3 hours in total.
