An informative pre-flight briefing by your FAA Certified
Commercial Pilot. All of our pilots and balloons are fully
certified by the Federal Aviation Administration.
Inflation:
You can actually participate in the exciting inflation process,
or just watch the multi-colored balloon unfold a world of color
around you. Before you realize it, the pilot stands the balloon
up and you board the hand-crafted wicker basket.
Takeoff:
The lift-off and ascent is so gentle many people do not realize
they have left the loving arms of mother earth. As you become
one with the wind, you lose sensation of motion and perception
of heights. You begin to feel the peacefulness and tranquillity
of ballooning.
Landing:
Your pilot will look for a spot near a farm, where there will be
thrilled people to help you celebrate your “arrival”. After
landing the pilot and crew will pack up the balloon and return
to the launch site for the post flight celebration. The
tradition of celebrating the flight began in the early 1700's
upon landing, the first balloons were feared as evil spirits,
and attacked by the local villagers and farmers. A later
balloonist presented a letter from the King and a bottle of
champagne as evidence of their Earthly origins, and so continues
today, the tradition of champagne as a gesture of friendliness
and good times.
Transfer:
Our crew will transfer you back to your accommodation
