Reservation Terms and Conditions
To reserve a flight call 518-793-6342 or use our online Reservation Form.
Please have an alternate date in mind in
case your first choice is full. Bookings are confirmed
with a 50% deposit. Your balance is due the day of your
balloon ride. When
making your reservation,
be prepared to give the height and weight
of each passenger. We need this information for flight
planning purposes for this type of
aircraft. Passengers over 270 Lbs will be assessed an
additional charge of $3 per pound over 270 Lbs due to the
weight and space restrictions of this type of aircraft. Reservations are accepted by phone on the day of a balloon flight with a credit card guarantee if space is available.
Balloon ride and flight length is subject to favorable flying conditions. Your pilot reserves the right to cancel or shorten any balloon flight due to weather, flight conditions, or for any safety issue in the pilot's professional judgment. We reserve the right to decline a passenger if
size, health, physical infirmity or general deportment impede the operation or the enjoyment
or safety of other passengers. Anyone intoxicated will be denied participation. Passengers with health considerations accept the responsibility to consult a medical professional before going on our balloon ride.
Failure to report accurate passenger weight could result in
denied boarding and cancellation of your reservation without
refund.
As with any adventure activity, there is risk associated with balloon flights. Passengers sign an acknowledgment of risk and release of liability.
