My husband and I enjoyed the ride. We stayed in a hotel in Scottsdale and the crew picked us up at our hotel. The crew were all professional, friendly, and made us feel safe. The team was able to get us in the air quickly and safely to watch the sunrise. Our pilot Jeff did an excellent job! We had a smooth takeoff and landing. He answered questions and pointed out different places while in the air. Our ride was about an hour (We thought this was enough time).
Things to know:
1. Your start time will depend on sunrise, so it will be later or earlier depending on when you book your trip.
2. It was in the 40’s (Fahrenheit) during our ride. While the heat from the hot air balloon kept us warm, I was happy I brought gloves and a hat to stay warm.
3. Remember your credit card to make the final payment.
4. Our group ride had about 12 people including the pilot. We felt like we all had plenty of room and enough space. There was a divider in the basket to separate the pilot and one in the middle of the basket.

We appreciate you taking the time to write us a review. Our pilots and their crew do their best to give you nothing less than a great time with us! Jeff is a great pilot and we’re happy that you got to experience a flight with him. The information you listed under “things to know” are spot on and we appreciate you informing possible future flyers on what to expect, however, you’re more than welcome to bring cash instead of a credit card for a final payment if it’s of more convenience to you! Thanks for flying with us and we truly hope to fly with you again!
