All balloon flights are weather dependent as we need to ensure it is safe to fly you based on the conditions. This will be determined by your pilot.
Please download our mobile app & input your booking details to receive the latest weather update from our pilot.
The night before your flight before 6pm, you’ll receive a notification confirming whether we can fly you based on the weather conditions and confirming the exact meeting time. You will be able to fill out the waiver/check-in for your flight on the app the night before.
For our Melbourne flight, we do have an accessible basket with a door and a seat inside that holds 10 passengers (with a maximum of 2 passengers able to be seated).
It is not guaranteed that we use this basket each morning we fly; therefore, it is your responsibility to enquire prior to booking to ensure it is available & that we hold this for you once you have a confirmed booking.
You will be required to fill in and send back our Easy Access Basket terms and conditions which will be emailed to you on request.
