Hot air balloon rides typically begin with the inflation of the balloon, which is usually done using a propane burner. The burner is used to heat the air inside the balloon, causing it to rise into the sky. Once the balloon is fully inflated and ready to go, passengers board the gondola or basket, and the pilot begins the ascent.


As the balloon rises into the sky, passengers can enjoy the views of the surrounding landscape from a birds-eye perspective. The pilot can control the balloon's altitude using the burner system, allowing them to ascend or descend as desired.


During the flight, the pilot may steer the balloon in different directions by finding air currents at different altitudes. The flight generally lasts one hour, depending on the wind conditions and the pilot's discretion.


After the flight, the balloon is brought back to earth, and the passengers exit the gondola. The balloon is then deflated and packed up until the next flight. Hot air balloon rides are typically very smooth and peaceful, offering passengers a unique and memorable experience.

Hot air balloon flights are considered a safe form of aviation, with technological advancements and stringent safety regulations contributing to their safety record. Modern materials like ripstop nylon and reinforced wicker baskets, along with improved meteorological forecasting, have significantly increased the safety of these flights. Additionally, pilots must adhere to strict licensing and training requirements, which further ensure the safety of passengers.
