Putting Your Safety First
When you are flying in a hot air balloon, much like any aircraft, safety should always be the top priority. That’s why when you choose to fly with us, you can trust that your safety is our primary concern.

This is the same certification required to fly commercial airliners and ensures that our pilots are all in peak physical and mental condition to fly.
Additionally, all of our pilots have a 100% flawless flight record, never having a single accident or incident in their combined 6000 hours of flight time. We are also southern Arizona’s only balloon company certified A+ by the Better Business Bureau for our safety and customer experience record.
