Furthermore, we were the first people to be appointed as official UK agents for Cameron Balloons Limited of Bristol. Camerons are the largest and most successful balloon manufacturers in the world, and their name is synonymous with many achievements, most notably the Breitling Orbiter 3 circumnavigation of the earth in 1999.
When We Fly
In a nutshell, we fly on every single day of the year that the weather and ground conditions allow.
That's weekdays, weekends, Bank Holidays - every day! (except Christmas Day, please!). We launch twice each day; once, about an hour after dawn, and again about two hours before sunset. It's at these times of day that the conditions are most suitable for ballooning.
For safety and comfort's sake, we simply cannot fly if the weather is wet, windy or foggy - our aim is to give everybody a pleasant, enjoyable and safe experience! But don't worry - if the weather's poor, you simply re-schedule your flight at your convenience.
If you'd like to see our schedule of flights for the next few weeks, click on 'Book Dates' at the top of this page. Note that our competitors do not let you see their flight availability until you've bought a voucher. Perhaps they don't want you to know how rarely they fly in your area!
