Balloon Aloft Camden
Additional Information
Sunrise flights Saturday and Sunday, weather permitting, meeting at sunrise at Rydges Campbelltown.
Hot air ballooning relies on suitable weather conditions in order to proceed safely. The cancellation of a flight is always a disappointment but for a safe and comfortable flight we need to be sure that we will be able to launch and land in calm conditions.
We need all passengers names and weights at the time of booking. Please put these details in the space provided when you are filling out the booking form. We will not fly ladies who pregnant.
- Included in price:
- Tea/coffee before the flight, return transport from Rydges Campbelltown to the launch/landing site, Buffet breakfast and Champagne ceremony.
- Able to be purchased/hired:
- In-flight photo available for purchase.
- What to bring:
- This is an outdoor activity, so please don't wear your best clothes. Dress as for hiking, i.e. high heels, thongs or open sandals are not suitable. Bring a change of socks in winter, or after rain, as feet can get wet and cold in the 'dewy' grass. We suggest you bring a cap as it can get warm on your head underneath the 'burner'. Sunglasses are also recommended. It will not be any colder in the air than on the ground. Dress in layers, so you can take a jacket or windcheater off, so as not to become too warm in the balloon.
