A GREAT WAY TO TASTE THE EXPERIENCE OF A HOT AIR BALLOON RIDE.
IT IS A CROWD PLEASER AT ANY PARTY, FESTIVAL OR PICNIC.

With the balloon securely anchored to the ground via a series of high tensile strength ropes and carabiners, a hot air balloon ascends to a pre-determined height above the ground and crowd to a height of 100' or less. During a tether, passengers climb aboard the aircraft for a short ride. Rides generally last about 5 minutes, including the embarkation, ascent, descent and disembarkation. A general rule to follow when looking for a suitable site: allow 250 by 250' square feet of completely open area*.

When selecting an area, look for trees, towers, antennas, power lines and anything else that may damage the balloon or pose a safety risk.*Site inspection - starts at $50.00. Balloon activities require 250' by 250', free and clear of all obstacles, such as buildings, trees, ponds, fences, overhead telephone and electric lines and accessible by vehicle. To help clear up any questions about your location, we recommend a site inspection for tethers and special location launches. The minimum charge of $50 includes inspections within 25 miles of Greenfield, Indiana. Locations outside of 25 miles from Greenfield, Indiana incur a charge of $0.85 cents per mile.

The total package includes up to two hours of tethering plus set up, pack up, and travel time*. Tether time starts when the cold inflation starts. That is when the fan is turned on and the balloon begins to inflate. Our tether/promotion package starts at $950 for the first two hours while the additional hourly rate drops to a low $450 per hour. Billing for additional hours occur in 30 minute intervals after the first two hours.
