Clearwater Hot air balloon trips

Hot air balloon trips are popular in Clearwater, and you could savor this wonderous way to rise above the earth now. While several people have never even been up close to a hot air balloon, those who have floated away in one remember this outstanding experience for years to come!

Hot air balloon trips can be had by everyone. Most excursions last close to an hour, but check with your ride company to find out what they offer. Sometimes they have several trips to choose from.

Why don't balloons fly 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.

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 look for Hot air balloon trips in Clearwater, realize that your charter can be rescheduled if weather conditions are unflyable. Don't expect to fly if it is unstable or raining. Bring your camera and lots of film, since you'll take many more snap shots than you expect.
