When preparing for your experience with
us remember to dress warmly and in layers. Early mornings are always
cool in the high dessert, but it warms up quickly and you’ll want to
adjust accordingly. A hat and comfortable shoes or boots are
recommended, no open toed shoes or sport sandals.
Make sure your camera batteries are fully
charged and you have plenty of film. Ballooning is a real hands on
experience and we encourage you to get as involved with the whole
process as you would like. After about 15 minutes of inflation time the
balloon will be upright and ready for liftoff, at which time you'll
climb aboard and be off on the adventure of a lifetime.
Following the flight we'll shuttle you
back to enjoy a traditional champagne toast.
We conduct one flight a day early in the
morning when wind conditions are calm and the air is stable. Flight
times vary depending on the time of year, we typically like to be in
the air within 1 hour of sunrise.
Flight time is approximately one hour
with the entire experience taking about three hours. Safety is our top
priority, flights are conducted only when the weather is favorable.
Since 1993, we’ve flown many thousands of passengers and maintain a
perfect safety record.
