FAQs

Why do you start so early?
Balloon flights must not take place in thermals (rising air), otherwise the balloon becomes uncontrollable. That's why we take off early in the morning when there is no thermal. Sometimes we can also take off in the evening. Just ask us!

Why are there no fixed meeting points/starting points?
Because the flights depend on the wind and the balloon can only be controlled by altitude. We can tell you the exact meeting point the day before.

How many people fit in a hot air balloon?
We have balloons for 2-16 people. The entire fleet can accommodate up to 90 people.
