Every one of these lifts at first light, because the air is only still for about an hour. These 8 compare basket size, flight time, the champagne breakfast afterwards and how often weather cancels.

“Unfortunately it didn’t happen. The hot air balloon people tried on 3 separate days to get us airborne. The weather wasn’t good enough. Now awaiting refund of monies”
