Amarillo Hot air balloon flights

Hot air balloon flights are popular in Amarillo, and you could enjoy this exciting interest when the weather is good. While some people have never even been up close to a balloon, those who have taken off in one remember this wonderful experience for years!

Hot air balloon flights can be experienced by all ages. Most charters last close to an hour, but check with your pilot to find out what is available. Sometimes they have several packages to choose from.

How much do balloons cost?
About the same as a car or boat. The most popular sport size balloons cost from $18,000 to $25,000 or more. Support equipment (radios, fan, extra tanks, tools, repair kit, etc.) adds from $2,000 to $ 5,000 more. You can also buy used balloons.

How do you steer a balloon?

Balloons simply float with the wind. The pilot can control the balloon's altitude to find a wind going in the desired direction, but you cannot fly upwind or crosswind.

Preflight planning insures the pilot knows which way the balloon will be traveling, and the pilot makes sure there are plenty of suitable landing sites downwind. You'll be amazed how the pilot is able to steer the balloon during your balloon ride!

As you search for Hot air balloon flights in Amarillo, remember that your trip might be rescheduled if weather conditions are not appropriate. Don't expect to fly if it is raining or windy. Bring your camera and lots of film, because you'll snap many more photos than you require.
