Flight Experiences
We meet just before dawn at Rydges Capital Hill Hotel on Canberra Avenue in Forrest. While you enjoy a cup of tea or coffee, the pilot checks the exact wind direction and chooses an appropriate launch site.
After a preflight briefing, we will drive you to the launch site where you are welcome to take photos or assist with the inflation of the balloon. The flight lasts between 45 minutes and an hour and offers spectacular views of Canberra.
On landing we pack up the balloon and return to the Rydges Hotel for a traditional champagne celebration and optional breakfast.
