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 search for Hot air balloon trips in Alexandria, keep in mind that your trip will be rescheduled if weather conditions are unflyable. Don't expect to fly if it is raining or unstable. Bring your camera and lots of film, since you'll snap many more pictures than you expect.
