In the unfortunate event you should have to alter or cancel your booking, certain fees apply:

  • Any flight cancelled within 72 hours prior to flight date will forfeit the full fare per person and will not be refunded.
  • Any flight altered within 72 hourswill be at the discretion of Balloon Aloft and dependant upon flight availability.
  • All alterations to flight dates will incur a rebooking fee of $50.00 per booking.
  • Any flight cancelled outside of 72 hoursof flight date will incur a cancellation fee of $50.00 per person.

All alterations to flight datewill incur a rebooking fee of $25.00 per person.
Any flight cancelled outside of 7 daysof flight date will incur a cancellation fee of $50.00 per person.

What if the weather is bad?

Although we live on the beautiful sunny Gold Coast, there are a few days a year we may not be able to fly. Our balloon pilots monitor the weather conditions very closely and will never endanger you as a guest if the weather is not 100% safe to fly.

On most occasions we are aware the night before if the weather is not looking the best, however as we all know the weather can be quite unpredictable at times and we may have to cancel on the day of your flight.

In the rare occasion that we need to cancel, we will offer you an alternative date to fly. A refund surcharge of 5% (which includes the initial payment surcharge) is non-refundable in the event of a trip cancellation. Refunds may also incur a $25.00 administration fee.

What should I wear for my flight?

Generally it doesn’t get much colder than what it is on the ground. You don’t feel any wind because you are moving at the same speed as the wind. We also find that the burner acts as an excellent provider of heat.

Although you get to experience the lovely warmth of the Hot Air Balloon Burners, some mornings can be a little cool. We recommend you wear a jumper or jacket that you can take off if you want as the morning goes on.  We also recommend that you wear closed in shoes but this is not absolutely necessary if you do not have them.

NO SCARVES PLEASE. And don’t forget to bring that adventurous smile!

Can I fly if I'm pregnant?

Hot Air Ballooning Civil Aviation policy states that if you are over 12 weeks pregnant you cannot fly.

Can you pick me up from any hotel on the Gold Coast?

We can pick you up from most hotels on the Gold Coast.

However, anywhere South of Broadbeach or North Labrador you will need to meet us at the Mercure Gold Coast Resort, Palm Meadows Drive, Carrara or any of the main hotels within our transfer zone.

Can I self drive or join you at the Hot Air Balloon meeting point?

You can make your way or self drive to one of the main hotels within our complimentary transfer zone. Or you can meet us at the Mercure Resort Gold Coast, Palm Meadows Drive, Carrara. Just notify us on booking where you would like us to pick you up.

Is it safe to book and pay online?

We use PayPal for any payments. PayPal is safer than using a credit card. The data is encrypted for extra protection against fraud and identity theft.

How high will we fly?

We fly on average between 1,500 to 5,000 thousand feet above the ground, giving you the best possible views of our beautiful hinterland and beaches.

Where do we fly to?

We have highly experienced Hot Air Balloon pilots from all over the world, so we are proud to say that we are the only specialists who fly over our beautiful Gold Coast waterways and skyline.

We also love to showcase diversity of our South East Queensland region, the contrast between the Green forested mountains with our Golden beaches, so depending on the weather we can take you on either of these two magnificent adventures, and sometimes even both!

Am I insured for my flight?

Yes, the cost of your balloon flight includes the mandatory aviation insurance and we will not ask you to pay an insurance levy on the day of your flight.
