\n \n Is it safe to fly in a hot air balloon?<\/span>
\n
<\/path><\/svg><\/div>\n
<\/path><\/svg><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n

Of course!
\nSafety is our number one priority.
\nOur pilots are experienced and certified professionals who carefully plan each flight, taking into account weather conditions and potential obstacles.
\nWe always give a safety briefing before the flight. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n <\/div>

\n \n What keeps a balloon in the sky?<\/span>
\n
<\/path><\/svg><\/div>\n
<\/path><\/svg><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n

The hot air keeps the balloon in the sky.
\nWhen the air inside the balloon is heated, it becomes lighter than the surrounding cold air, creating a lifting force that lifts the balloon into the sky. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n <\/div>

\n
\n \n How can the pilot get the balloon to fly in the right direction?<\/span>
\n
<\/path><\/svg><\/div>\n
<\/path><\/svg><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n

Although the balloon has no rudder, the pilot can control the direction of flight by changing altitude.
\nAt different altitudes, the wind direction and speed can vary, so the pilot uses this principle to steer the balloon in the desired direction. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n <\/div>

\n
\n \n Can you fly in a balloon if you are afraid of heights?<\/span>
\n
<\/path><\/svg><\/div>\n
<\/path><\/svg><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n

Yes!
\nThe balloon rises slowly and smoothly, creating a very calm and stable flight.
\nMany people with a fear of heights have been surprised how comfortable they feel during the flight. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n <\/div>

\n
\n \n Is it cold "up there"?<\/span>
\n
<\/path><\/svg><\/div>\n
<\/path><\/svg><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n

Temperatures during flight are usually similar to those on the ground.
\nHowever, morning and evening flights can be cooler, so we recommend dressing in layers and bringing warmer clothing. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n <\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n
<\/path><\/svg><\/div>\n
<\/path><\/svg><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n

Our balloons can accommodate different numbers of passengers, depending on the size of the balloon.
\nWe offer flights for individual adventures and for groups of up to 10 people. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n <\/div>

\n

\n
\n \n Can I choose where I want to fly?<\/span>

Yes, we offer flights throughout Latvia.
\nYou can choose the flight location that suits your preferences.
\nWe'll make sure your chosen location is safe and suitable for your flight. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n <\/div>

\n
\n \n How long is one flight?<\/span>
\n
<\/path><\/svg><\/div>\n
<\/path><\/svg><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n

Flight time is approximately one hour.
\nHowever, taking into account the preparation and landing time, the total adventure can last 2-3 hours. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n <\/div>

\n \n What clothing and footwear to wear when flying<\/span>
\n
<\/path><\/svg><\/div>\n

Comfortable, weather-appropriate clothing and sturdy footwear are recommended.
