8. Can everyone fly a hot air balloon?
To fly a balloon with us, you must be at least 12 years old and 140 cm tall. If you are under 18, at least one guardian must accompany you in the basket.
The flight is about an hour long and you should be able to stand up in the basket during this time. The landing can be compared to jumping off a stool, if you are unable to do this due to back problems or disability, we do not recommend flying a hot air balloon. If you are unsure whether you can fly a balloon due to another injury or illness, we recommend that you consult your doctor.
For safety reasons, we do not fly pregnant women. If you become pregnant after buying a ticket, we will extend your ticket so you can enjoy your experience after your pregnancy. Submit a pregnancy certificate given to you by the midwife together with your ticket code and we will take care of it for you.
