Next month marks the beginning of a new flying season here in the South West of England. From April to October each year, people keen to set off on a hot air ballooning adventures can take to the skies and explore the stunning local scenery from a new vantage point.
During these months, the weather is more likely to be clement and the quality of light more conducive to having a hot air balloon flight to remember.
Of course, hot air balloon flights are weather dependent and rely on stable thermal temperatures to take place. For this reason, flights are usually scheduled within two hours of dawn or two hours before dusk. This allows passengers to take in the stunning vistas accompanied by the glow of sunset or sunrise.
For many, hot air balloon flight offer memories that will last a lifetime. Even for hot air ballooning aficionados, nothing beats the wonder of taking to the skies to soar serenely over the landscape below. To mark the uniqueness of the experience, it is not uncommon for passengers to book a champagne experience and be met with a glass of fizz upon landing. During the flight, an experienced pilot will highlight points of interest in the local area and take photos, to enable passengers to treasure memories of their experience forever.
We offer flights over the cities of Bath, Bristol and other parts of the South West, where the rolling hills of the Mendips and south Cotswolds provide the perfect backdrop to a day out with a difference.
