More please!! Considering having a go at this. Not too good with heights, but getting better. Love hieghts in a plane, helicopter or London Eye but not sure how I would be in a balloon. Prefer to hug the middle of the helicopter not too good being too near the edge.

We met at Champions Gate (J58 I4)
They drove us to a field a few miles away and we began to set up.
Just as the Sun was rising we were set for the off.
They were filming for a promotional video at Flights of Fantasy so this was not their usual flight path.
As for the heights, I wouldn't worry about it, I am scared of heights (Andy) but OK with Flying etc.
This was nothing, didn;t feel nervous at all!
No sensation of rocking or anything, its so peaceful and you just glide along with only the sound of the burn to raise the balloon.
The pilots drop the balloons so that the baskets skim the water before raising it again, weird sensation.
Definately a thing to do more than once!
I'll sort some more photo's out and post them! [msnsmile2]

It's a fantastic experience, the morning we went there were several couples getting married in their balloons. Jan if you're OK in a plane etc then you'll be fine in a balloon, we can't wait to go again.
There is a link for balloon rides at the top of this page.

Its like floating on air!
definitely an experience to remember!
Just remember your camera
-
Amazing photo's and now another thing to add to the never ending list for when we go next year =D
Just quick question, how much is it and how long do you get? Im so excited to do this now =D
-
It is around $165 to $185 each.
Price for children are less and certain companies allow infant / small children to fly for free.
The flight itself is around 1hr
But the overall experience is almost a full morning from 6am to around 12 noon

so lovely, hubby wont let us book it up for himself and Russ (son) but he swears he will go for a balloon ride, yeh watch this space........hope they do, Russ also wants to go on the sky coaster but he has no one to go with him.......
-
You don't need anyone with you on the sky coaster, they will pair you up with others -my hubby did it, said it was the best thrill ride ever.
