Stamford Balloon excursionsBalloon excursions are big in Stamford, and you can delight in this unique sport year-round. While many people have never even been up close to a balloon, those who have taken off in one remember this marvellous experience the rest of their life!Balloon excursions can be had by all ages. Most adventures last roughly an hour, but check with your ride company to find out your options. They might have several flights to buy from.
Be sure to bring a camera and plenty of film! You'll be surprised at how many pictures you take before, during and after your flight. Bring more film or memory than you think you'll use. Once you're in the air and snapping away you sure don't want to be surprised by running out! You can bring cameras for still or video, and we suggest you carry them in a protective case. Your pilot may ask you to put your cameras away during landing to make sure there are no objects that could fly out of your hand and hurt someone. Once you're on the ground you can start shooting again.
As you look for Balloon excursions in Stamford, keep in mind that your ride may be rescheduled if weather conditions are less than perfect. Don't expect to fly if it is too hot or unstable. Bring your camera and lots of film, because you'll take many more pics than you require.

A balloon has an envelope, basket, and sometimes a burner and fuel system. The envelope is the fabric part of the balloon, the bag that holds the lifting gas. The basket (traditionally wicker) is the passenger compartment. In a hot air balloon, a burner hangs between the envelope and the basket. It burns liquefied propane gas to make an intensely hot and long flame, capable of heating a large volume of air very quickly.
