New Orleans Ballon rides

Ballon rides are the thing in New Orleans, and you may revel in this wonderous pastime when the weather is good. Regardless of the fact that most people have never even been up close to a balloon, those who have flown in one remember this tremendous experience the rest of their life!

Ballon rides can be experienced by anyone. Most flights last close to an hour, but check with the tour company to find out what they offer. They often have several flights to choose from.

What happens if a bird flys into a balloon?
It would likely bounce off! The envelope fabric is much tougher than it might appear. It is possible to fly a balloon with a hole large enough for a man to go through as long as the hole is not at the top of the envelope.

Why can't I get a balloon ride in the middle of the day?

Balloons fly early in the morning, right after sunrise and late in the day, right before sunset. This is when the wind is calmest since the sun is low in the sky. The wind is generally too unpredictable, with severe up-and down-drafts, during the middle of the day. It isn't safe to offer balloon rides when the wind is unstable.

As you look for Ballon rides in New Orleans, remember that your charter could be rescheduled if weather conditions are unsafe. Don't expect to fly if it is raining or windy. Bring your camera and plenty of film, since you'll snap many more photographs than you require.
