Shreveport Hot air balloon flights

Hot air balloon flights are fashionable in Shreveport, and you may savor this spectacular way to fly throughout the year. While many people have never even been up close to a hot air balloon, those who have floated away in one remember this marvelous experience for life!

Have you ever wondered what keeps a hot air balloon flying? The same principle that keeps food frozen in the open chest freezers at the grocery store allows hot air balloons to fly.

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 Hot air balloon flights in Shreveport, remember that your flight can be rescheduled if weather is less than perfect. Don't expect to fly if it is unstable or raining. Bring your camera and lots of film, because you'll snap many more snapshots than you expect.
