Hot
Air Balloon Flights
The hot
air balloon ride will last about one hour but you will
need to allow 3-4 hours for the whole experience. You
can fly from any of our launch sites in Hampshire,
Surrey or West Sussex. When you meet on the launch site
you will be checked in by our groundcrew. After the
passenger safety briefings are completed the hot air
balloon will be prepared and as part of the experience
you can if you wish help the crew, when all the final
safety checks are complete the adventure begins.
Weather
Conditions
Hot
Air Ballooning is very weather dependent. We need light
surface winds, below 10 mph with no rain and good
visibility. We always obtain the latest weather
forecasts before making a decision to fly. Passenger
safety and enjoyment are our prime considerations so if
conditions do force a cancellation we will rearrange
your trip for the next mutually convenient date.
What
Do I Wear ?
We
recommend you wear casual clothing suitable for a
country walk, including long trousers and flat shoes or
walking boots. Please bear in mind that fields may be
wet or muddy. A hat may be needed for those who are a
little thin on top as the burner gives out radiant heat.
Temperatures in the air are much the same as on the
ground.
Are
There Any Restrictions On Who Can Fly?
There
are no age restrictions but you must be agile enough to
climb in and out of the basket and stand for the
duration of the flight. If you are in any doubt you
should consult your GP. You should advise us of any
medical condition. Children should be tall enough to see
over the edge of the basket (1.2m) and must be
accompanied by an adult.
