Passengers must be fit enough to enter and leave the basket by themselves, and must declare any health problem which may be relevant; so that all passengers are prepared should they suffer a crisis. All passengers are individuals and are treated as such. Age in itself is not a drawback and accompanied children are welcome at the discretion of our pilots. A range of balloons is available, carrying from four to thirty-two passengers.

The size of the balloon chosen by the Pilot will be appropriate to the conditions prevailing and the size of the group. Flights are available subject to weather conditions at dawn, or one or two hours later. Take off is usually from a suitable site on the Luxor West Bank, perhaps near the Ramessium or another place of historic interest again depending on prevailing weather conditions, the major influence on flight.

Flying directly over a particular site can not be guaranteed, but the Pilot will do his best to give an interesting flight, which will certainly be unique to the area. Flights are under the control of the Local Airport Tower, and radio contact is maintained during the flight. Passengers are collected from their residence Hotel or Cruise in Luxor at a pre-arranged time and taken to the private launch.

After the flight, if the venue is suitable, the celebration of the landing may lead to dancing or singing by the local people or the crew.

The people in the small villages close to Luxor seldom see tourists other than balloon passengers. Farmers living very simple lives are delighted to meet people from different cultures. In return, our passengers see a style of life that is hidden by commerce and hype to most visitors and they frequently remark on the privilege of the experience. This short period of relaxation in a convivial group sets the seal of complete enjoyment. Within reason, after the trip passengers are escorted locally where they wish.
