Passengers
We take our passengers’ individual circumstances into account as part of the decision to fly or not. When you book your flight, you will be asked to inform us of any disabilities as well as the age and approximate weight of passengers. We use weight for the evaluation of our fuel consumption for the flight and take into consideration age and disabilities when the decision to progress with the flight is made.
Equipment
We inspect our balloons and other equipment in accordance with TCAA requirements at either, 100 hour intervals or annually.
We only fly with state of the art, custom made balloons. Thorough pre-flight inspections are conducted and detailed checklists, specially designed by our team, for our balloons are used before every flight.

All our balloons and vehicles are covered by an insurance package which also shields against any unlikely events resulting in injuries. You can see a copy of our insurance certificate here.
