Is there an Age Requirement for a Balloon Ride?back to top
We suggest that children should be tall enough to stand in the basket and see over the top of the basket.
In addition, we suggest that children be old enough to be able to stand in the basket for about an hour
without getting too restless. This is for their own enjoyment.
If they do not meet these guidelines, it is highly unlikely that they will enjoy the experience.
It has been our experience that children who have reached age 10, usually, meet these guidelines.
Where do we meet for a flight?Back to top
We originate each flight from our office in the Middletown area.
We are conveniently located with easy access to the Gene Snyder Freeway.
The temperature in the basket will be about the same as the temperature on the ground.
If you would wear a jacket or sweater on the ground, then you will want it in the balloon.
Dress comfortably: Jeans, tennis shoes, and please no high heels.
We schedule flight times both early morning and late evenings all year round. To schedule your ride,
please call us at (502) 245-1588. If you need to re-schedule your ride, we need to know at least
48 hours in advance.
You will be aloft approximately 1 hour, but please allow 3 hours for the entire adventure.
A balloon is limited in the amount of weight it can carry. Therefore, we need to know in advance
if you weigh more than 210 pounds.
This information will help us to schedule your ride on a day in which we are sure you will be able to enjoy your ride.
If you are 65 years of age or older, please let us know in advance.
We would like to check on the physical condition of passengers in this category before scheduling a flight.
Landings can be a bit bouncy, and you will be required to climb into and out of the basket.
If you are pregnant, just had surgery, have knee or back problems, or can't stand up for at least an hour,
we are sorry, but No Flights Allowed.
No exceptions.
(We are happy to give you a refund or transfer the certificate to someone else if you fall into this category.)
We will meet for the flight at our office in Middletown. You will find a map
above in our "Where do We Meet?" section.
