All passengers are encouraged to join in the inflation process as their balloon comes to life. We will fly for approximately one hour and your Pilot will point out all the spectacular sites of the area. After your flight we will celebrate with a traditional Champagne toast and head back for an all you can eat breakfast buffet. At breakfast, each passenger will be awarded a souvenir first flight certificate and a souvenir photograph
Where do the flights take place?
The flights are all in the Disney area. They can take place anywhere from Disney to Highway 192 and Highway 27, depending on wind direction.
Where do the flights start, and at what time?
You will meet your aviator around one hour before the sun comes up. This will usually be between 5:30am and 6:30am, but it depends on the time of year of your holiday. We meet at the Best Western Lakeside on Highway 192 exactly 5 traffic lights west of the main entrance to Disney World. (Interstate 4 Exit 64). The address is 7769 West Irlo Bronson Memorial Highway Kissimmee FL 34747.
If you do not have your own transport, hotel pick-ups can be arranged for $10 per person payable locally. Our program starts one hour before sunrise with a pre-flight briefing by one of our full time professional pilots. We then board our vehicles and head off to one of our 25 launch sites. (Depending on the wind direction)
How long is the flight and what's included?
Most of the flights last about one hour. They can, however, be as short as 45 minutes or as long and one hour and 45 minutes. It all depends on the weather conditions on the day, and also the landing sites.
Once we have landed and the balloons are stored away we will have a traditional Champagne toast and head back for an all you can eat breakfast buffet. At breakfast, each passenger will be awarded a souvenir first flight certificate and a souvenir photograph.
Should I wear any warm clothing for the balloon trip?
As it is not any cooler in the balloon than it is on the ground, we would suggest just dressing for how the weather is on the day of your flight. Please try to avoid open-toed footwear.
What can I bring along with me?
By all means bring along your camera or camcorder to record your unforgettable journey!
How high does the balloon go?
We can go anywhere from the level of the treetops to several thousand feet up, depending on wind speed and direction.
How many people are in the balloon?
With the private chest ticket, there are a maximum of two passengers. On shared baskets we fly anywhere from 4 passengers to 12 passengers in each balloon. The larger balloons have compartments in them for the comfort and safety of our passengers.
I suffer from motion sickness, so will I be affected by a balloon flight?
No. As the balloon moves gently with the wind, there is none of this sensation to concern you. It is genuinely possible to place a glass of water on a table in a balloon during flight, and not a drop will be spilled!
