About Your Flight
Where do we take off?
Our primary launch site is Royal Victoria Park. Please note that we may occasionally use an alternative location close to the city.
We cannot guarantee flights over the main city as this depends on weather conditions. However, we do everything possible to make it happen. Regardless, our Bath flights are spectacular as we always fly from or very close to the city and are surrounded by the stunning Cotswolds countryside.

Why would a flight be cancelled?
We really regret having to cancel and rearrange flights as we know the disappointment that comes with it for our guests. However, your safety is our top priority and our duty of care is to operate in a safe manner. As a commercial balloon operator we do not fly in marginal or unsafe weather conditions.
Hot air ballooning is weather dependent so your flight can be cancelled if the weather does not make it safe to fly you. Additionally, flights may be dependent on mechanical performance or staffing availability. Similarly, a trip may be postponed due to less than minimum numbers being achieved.
