Hot air balloon flights normally take place early in the morning (1-2 hours after the sunrise), and in the evening, 1-2 hours prior to the sunset.

Any large enough and protected from the wind area can serve as a launch field for a hot air balloon flight. In Vilnius, we take off from Kalnu Park and from Vingis Park. In Kaunas - from the river junction, and from Aleksotas. We can also arrive to a location of your choice anywhere in Lithuania.

A hot air balloon is prepared for the flight within 20-30 minutes. The flight normally lasts 1- 1 /2 hours, and the flight altitude can vary from 1 to 1000 meters, sometimes even higher. A clear sky is not a necessary precondition for the flight to take place. The key condition is a weak low altitude wind (up to 20km/h), and an absence of the rainfall. Hot air balloon flights do take place in wintertime as well!

The elevation and descent (touch-down) speed of a hot air balloon is rather slow; therefore you will not experience unpleasant sensations which normally bother you in a plane flight. The horizontal speed and flight direction are equal to wind speed and direction. Therefore, the pleasure of flying a hot air balloon is accessible both to children and to elderly people.

A flying hot air balloon is always escorted by a car, which picks up the passengers and the balloon after the descent, and returns them to the launching pad location. Persons undertaking a hot air balloon flight for the first time, are �ordained� into balloonist ranks by the crew, and receive flight diplomas.
