Weather and ballooning: everything you need to know about postponements

Hot-air balloon flights are a unique experience, but highly dependent on weather conditions to guarantee passenger safety and enjoyment. Here are the solutions we have put in place in the event of postponement due to the weather:

1. Your ticket is valid for 18 months

If your flight is cancelled due to bad weather, don't worry! Your ticket remains valid for 18 months from the date of purchase. You'll have plenty of opportunities to reschedule your experience.

2. Postponed to next day subject to availability

When weather conditions prevent a scheduled flight, we offer to reschedule your flight for the following day, subject to availability. An ideal solution for those visiting the region who want to try their luck quickly.

3. Cancellation insurance for greater flexibility

For even greater peace of mind, we offer you the possibility of taking out cancellation insurance. This option allows you to request a refund if you are unable to reschedule your flight.

4. Conversion of ticket to helicopter flight

If you don't want to wait for a new date for your hot-air balloon flight, we offer you an original alternative: convert your ticket into a helicopter flight! Enjoy an unforgettable aerial experience over the châteaux of the Loire Valley, with greater flexibility in the face of weather constraints.
