Tips for Your First Hot Air Balloon Ride

May 8, 2019

Hot air balloon is a great way to appreciate the beauty that surrounds you. As you are up in the air with friends, admiring the captivating beauty of the surroundings and watch the world as it goes by, some thoughts may cross your mind. How safe am I? What if something happens what should I do? Hot air balloons are relatively safe but before you get on one, there are several things that you should do.

Be Flexible with the Schedule

The weather determines whether your flight will take off or not and that is the reason you should be flexible. If there are high winds, strong storms or rains, it is highly likely that your hot air balloon ride will be canceled. This is the reason you should go for the ride on the first days of your vacation so that even if you were to reschedule it, you would still have a few more days for the ride.

Dress for the Ride

You dress for two things when going for a hot air balloon ride. You will dress for the weather and for your comfort. Although the balloon has a flame to keep you warm it’s crucial you wear warmly as it can get very cold up there. Wear shorts or pants, comfortable sweaters, and closed shoes. It will be easier for you this way rather than wearing skirts, suits, and heels.

Follow the Instructions Given

The pilot and the staff at large will give you instructions to follow during the ride. There will be taking off, jostling and landing. With these stages and the risk involved, you will be given instructions which you should follow to the letter. When you follow the advice given, you will have a smooth and safe ride.

Be ready for the rates

Going for a hot air balloon is not cheap. The rates can be quite high and thus you should be prepared to pay a higher price than with most other activities. You can pay anything for $250 per person and above but the amount is worth the experience.

Hot air balloon gives an amazing experience even for the first time. As long as you dress appropriately, you are prepared, you follow instructions and you will not experience motion sickness. Since the baskets are large, in most cases you will be other people and this means that you should prepare yourself to be comfortable.
