Deluxe Balloon Flight: The VIP Experience
Longer Flight Time, Smaller Groups, Unmatched Comfort
Upgrade to a Deluxe Balloon Flight in Cappadocia. Enjoy a 1.5-hour flight, smaller baskets (max 12-16 people), and a more extensive breakfast. Perfect for photographers and couples.
For travelers who want more than just a quick glimpse of the landscape, the Deluxe Hot Air Balloon Flight is the superior choice. This option is designed for those who value personal space, photography opportunities, and a more leisurely pace.
With a smaller basket capacity and an extended flight time (1.5 hours), you get deeper into the valleys and higher above the peaks. It offers a more intimate atmosphere, making it the perfect choice for couples, honeymooners, and professional photographers.
Why Upgrade to Deluxe?
50% More Flight Time: Standard flights are 60 minutes. Deluxe flights are 90 minutes, giving you an extra half-hour to explore different canyons and catch the changing light.
More Space: Fly in a basket limited to 12 to 16 people (vs. 20-28 in Standard). This guarantees you a corner spot or a clear edge for unobstructed photography.
Late Take-off Option: Depending on the operator, Deluxe flights sometimes take off slightly after the main swarm, allowing you to capture photos of hundreds of balloons in the air before you join them.
The Deluxe Itinerary
VIP Pick-up: A comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle picks you up from your hotel roughly 1 hour before sunrise.
Premium Breakfast: Arrive at the launch site and enjoy an upgraded buffet breakfast (hot drinks, pastries, cheese, local snacks) while watching the inflation.
Extended Flight: Board the spacious basket. Your pilot, usually one of the most senior instructors, will take you on a 1.5-hour journey.
Technical Flying: With more time, the pilot can demonstrate technical skills—descending inches above the apricot trees and ascending thousands of feet for the “big picture” view.
Champagne Celebration: Land gently and celebrate with a traditional champagne toast.
Souvenirs: Receive your personalized flight certificate.
Return: Drop-off at your hotel around 08:30 – 09:00 AM.
