Established in 1979 in Lancaster, California, and now based in Las Vegas,
Nevada, "Adventure Balloons" offers balloon rides, tethered balloon rides,
and flight instruction.
The balloon may be employed to advertise and/or utilized for promotional
or fundraising events.
Employee incentive programs are augmented by giving "the best employee(s)"
hot air balloon ride certificates.
Schools can request the "balloon" to provide educational class programs
or assemblies.

Limitations

Ballooning is a wonderful
experience and we welcome all who wish to fly, although some restrictions
do apply. Weight is usually not a limiting factor; however, some
limitations exist in the size of the basket. We request that you
include your weight for flight planning purposes as required by the Federal
Aviation Agency (FAA). Children must be a MINIMUM of 48 inches tall,
and are welcome to fly - with parent's consent, of course. We make
every effort to accommodate all who wish to share in this adventure.
