Hot Air Balloon Rides - Charter Flights
What (you will get): Aerostation Limited Hot Air Balloon Rides are personalized in that passengers are limited to the scheduling group. This is normally two persons unless other arrangements are made when the flight is scheduled. More than one balloon can be scheduled to accommodate larger groups.
When (are the Flights): A flight can be scheduled for any morning or evening, year-round, and we can fly daily, weather permitting. The flights are early in the morning and late in the evenings, in order to take advantage of the most favorable wind and weather conditions. Morning flights begin just after sunrise, and evening flights begin approximately an hour and a half before sunset.
What Else (is included): The traditional champagne toast (or a non-alcoholic beverage of your
choice) after the flight.
How Long (are the Flights): Flights are in the range of an hour, and the entire experience;
from meeting (about a hour before the flight), the flight, thru return to your vehicle, is approximately 3 hours.
Where (will we go): Balloons travel with the winds. We select a starting point/launch site, just
prior to flight time, based current and forecasted winds, in order to provide a favorable flight path
and landing area.
How (can I arrange for a Flight): Contact Aerostation Ltd. for date availability and reservation
arrangements. Reservations are required and should be made no later than a week to 10 days prior
to the flight; the sooner the better during good flying weather season (May thru November). Together we will set the date and
time for the flight, and establish contact arrangements relevant to the scheduled (morning or evening)
flight time.
What (about the weather): To ensure the safest and most ideal conditions for your flight; we fly
in pleasant weather and when the winds are less than 10 miles an hour. If current or forecasted
weather conditions prohibit a scheduled flight, we will reschedule the flight for a mutually agreeable
date and time. If a Gift Certificate flight requires rescheduling due to weather, the certificate
expiration date will be adjusted.
The Coordination Details: For morning flights, we contact the passengers the evening before the
flight; and for evening flights several hours prior to the flight. At that time we confirm that weather
will or will not be an issue, and set a meeting time and place. We meet our passengers just before
sunrise for morning flights, and three hours before sunset for evening flights.
GIFT FLIGHT CERTIFICATES ARE AVAILABLE: We will prepare a Gift Certificate, made
out to the recipient, and have it delivered (USPS). Gift Certificates become valid upon receipt of
payment, and are valid for a year from date of purchase.
