Baloon flights around Peoria    

Peoria Baloon flights

Baloon flights are the rage in Peoria, and you could enjoy this exciting pursuit year around. Even though some people have never even been up close to a air balloon, those who have taken flight in one remember this tremendous experience the rest of their life!

Baloon flights can be enjoyed by all ages. Most flights last just about an hour, but check with your ride company to find out your options. Sometimes they have several offerings to buy from.

What fuel do hot air balloons use, and where is it carried?
Propane is used for fuel. It is carried in aluminum or stainless steel tanks that range from 10 to 20 gallons in size. Average fuel consumption is about 15 gallons an hour.

What should you wear during your flight?

Ballooning is not a formal occasion, so heals, dresses and suits are not appropriate. Dress like you would for an outdoor hike. Comfortable shoes (no open-toed shoes or sandals, please), long pants and layered clothing during the cooler months are recommended. Balloons don't normally land at airports, so you'll probably be standing in an open field after landing. Dress appropriately for the area of the country you're flying in.

Be sure to check with the company you are flying with for their clothing rules.

As you search for Baloon flights in Peoria, remember that your flight 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, because you'll snap many more pics than you expect.
