As experienced balloonists, Jo and Clive Bailey specialise in offering a
personal and safe approach to your balloon flight. Bailey Balloons usually fly
small groups and will tailor your flight to ensure your experience is both
unique and memorable. If required, larger numbers can comfortably be catered
for.
Jo and Clive have flown balloons all over Europe, the Middle East
and Africa. Every January they fly in the Swiss Alps and have set a height
record above the Bristol Balloon Fiesta in aid of a cancer charity. All this
makes them more than qualified to introduce you to the joys of ballooning
A hot air balloon flight is a once in a lifetime experience. Bailey Balloons
offers you an exhilarating, unique opportunity to see the world from a different
perspective. Book a balloon flight with them and you get a lot more than just a
balloon ride - you can help them prepare for take-off, find out how the balloon
works, enjoy a glass of chilled champagne on touchdown and receive your own
special flight certificate.
The personal touch
Bailey Balloons is a family business run by Jo and Clive, who do everything
they can to make your flight truly personal. They usually fly in small groups
for intimate occasions but can easily cater for larger parties. Although most of
their flights take place early evening or dawn, they can also make alternative
arrangements if required.
Flight times
The actual hot air balloon ride lasts about one hour, but the whole
experience, from setting up the balloon to drinking champagne on landing and
returning to the launch site, takes three to four hours. They usually meet one
hour after sunrise and three hours before sunset when the winds are calmest, but
they will confirm these times when you book your flight.
Flight locations
They have a variety of ballooning locations in South West England and South
Wales. You can fly from launch sites in Bristol - the ballooning capital of the
world - Bath and various sites in South Wales, over views of some of the most
beautiful towns and countryside in Britain.
A flight for special occasions
You should be able to fly on the day you choose, but if the weather’s
unsuitable for flying, they might have to reschedule your balloon ride for
another date. They fly up to 14 times a week so there are plenty of flights to
choose from.
The ballooning experience
First, they meet you at the launch site where you can help them prepare for
take-off. During the hot air balloon ride you’ll have plenty of time to enjoy
the views and take pictures. After landing, you can enjoy a glass of chilled
champagne, beer or other cold drink before they take you back to the launch
site. If required, they can also arrange a meal as part of the package.
