Hot air balloon trips in North Carolina    

North Carolina Balloon rides

Balloon flights are celebrated in North Carolina, and smart shoppers can revel in this great way to fly whenever the weather conditions are favorable. Regardless of the fact that many individuals have never gotten near a ballon, those who have floated away in one remember this wonderous experience for life!

Hot air balloons use plain old air for lift. By heating the air inside the balloon, the pilot makes that air less dense (lighter) than the outside air, and the balloon rises. As the internal air cools, the balloon becomes heavier, and descends if the pilot doesn't add more heat.

Balloon flights can be had by anyone. Most charters last about an hour, even so check with your pilot to find out what they offer. Many have several packages to buy from.

Be sure to bring a camera and plenty of film!

You'll be surprised at how many pictures you take before, during and after your flight. Bring more film or memory than you think you'll use. Once you're in the air and snapping away you sure don't want to be surprised by running out!

You can bring cameras for still or video, and we suggest you carry them in a protective case. Your pilot may ask you to put your cameras away during landing to make sure there are no objects that could fly out of your hand and hurt someone. Once you're on the ground you can start shooting again.
