HOW MUCH DOES IT COST TO GO FOR A RIDE?
As an industry, any reputable balloon company will charge between $150.00 and $350.00 per person, depending on the length of the flight and number of passengers. Being FAA certified, hot air balloons are very expensive to own and operate. With the cost of: crew, chase trucks, aircraft maintenance and commercial insurance, we balloonists strive to keep the cost to the passenger as low as possible.
Back in 1786 it cost the U.S equivalent of $45,000 per passenger! Ballooning is less expensive than ever. Prices will vary from one Balloon Company to another.
HOW LONG IS AN AVERAGE BALLOON FLIGHT?
Usually, a balloon flight lasts about 45 minutes to 1 hour. At an average wind speed of about 3-5 mph, a balloon will fly 2–5 miles. Ground crews follow the balloon, talking on the radio with the pilot. The balloon will land in an open area with the ground crew there to help recover the equipment and to take the pilot and passengers back to the launch site.
WHAT SHOULD WEAR FOR MY BALLOON FLIGHT?
Hot air balloons tend to fly in remote and rural areas, so it best to wear durable outdoor clothing. Closed-toed shoes, like boots or sneakers are a must, as the balloon might land in rough terrain. Early morning flights might be chilly on the ground, but it is important to remember that it will be warmer inside the basket. It is best to wear layers, so you can adjust to a comfortable temperature. Long pants in both summer and winter are recommended to protect your legs from the cold and sticker bushes in the landing site.
