FAQs

Flight Information

Answers to common questions about our hot air balloon tours.

What time is the pickup for the hot air balloon?

The pickup is very early, typically between 3:30 AM and 4:30 AM, depending on the season and your hotel location. This ensures we reach the launch site before sunrise.

Is the hot air balloon tour safe?

Yes, it is extremely safe. We use world-class equipment and highly experienced, licensed pilots. Every flight is subject to strict weather safety protocols.

What happens if the flight is cancelled due to weather?

Hot air ballooning is weather-dependent. If wind speeds are too high, we will notify you and offer to reschedule or provide a full refund.

Can children participate in the flight?

Children aged 5 and above can participate. For safety reasons, they must be tall enough to see over the edge of the basket (approx 120cm) and must be accompanied by an adult.
