ARE YOU READY FOR NEW PERSPECTIVES? With us, you will experience ballooning in all its facets. We start by rigging the balloon together. Our experienced pilots and the experienced ground team will explain all the procedures to you and show you where you can help. Once the balloon is set up and ready for take-off, you climb into the basket - and you take off. The feeling is as unique as it is wonderful. The houses and trees below you slowly get smaller, the sky gets closer and closer. The balloon moves with the wind, it is completely calm in the basket. Your pilot will be happy to explain anything you want to know. Enjoy the view & see the beautiful Austrian landscape from a completely new perspective.

Physical requirements:
A balloon flight is suitable for almost everyone. For safety reasons, children must be at least 130 cm tall or at least 12 years old. For underage passengers, we require the consent of a legal guardian.
In the case of heart, circulatory or lung diseases, hip or knee problems and in the case of pregnancy, we ask you to consult your doctor on your own responsibility.
Important informations:
As we fly with the wind, we cannot say in advance exactly in which direction we will be flying and where the landing site will be. Your pilot will choose a suitable landing site depending on the conditions and wind. The chase team will arrive there during or shortly after landing.
Weather:
"Safety first" - our experienced pilots check the weather conditions and forecasts carefully before every take-off. Reasons for excluding a take-off are, for example, strong ground winds, low clouds and poor visibility. Of course, we check the weather in advance so that unnecessary journeys can be avoided as far as possible. Nevertheless, it may happen that the launch has to be canceled at short notice for safety reasons. In this case, we ask for your understanding and will be happy to arrange a new date with you.
Duration:
With us, you will experience the balloon flight in all its facets - from rigging the balloon together to packing the balloon after landing. Afterwards, the traditional balloonist baptism takes place at the balloon garage. Allow 3 to 4 hours for your "balloon flight experience", of which you will spend approx. 1 hour in the air.

The balloon experience can be booked individually or in a group of up to 20 people

Possible in the morning and evening
Morning or evening flights, both have their own special charm. On the morning flight, the balloon actually takes off shortly after sunrise. The evening flight starts about 2 hours before sunset. The meeting point is always 1 hour before the start time, as a short briefing takes place beforehand and the balloon is made ready for take-off together.
