Overview

Choosing our launch sights daily makes it a lot more likely your flight is successful. Ballooning is dependent upon the weather and having such a large radius we fly in gives us a much higher likelihood of having a slow soft landing.

We offer private flights as well as group flights. We can accommodate almost any requests and we would be happy to do so.

What's Included

  • Alcoholic beverages Mimosas or nonalcoholic options are available. Only 18 years old and above are allowed to have alcoholic beverages

    Tome Hill Park

    One of our favorite flights is slightly south of Albuquerque in a farming community called Los Lunas. There we fly over the mighty Rio Grande river and if you’re lucky we might even touch down in the river to do a “splash and dash.” Followed by a beautiful flight over historic Tome hill.
