Ballooning And The British Weather
As we all know, the great British weather can be unreliable at the best of times. Virgin Balloon Flights staff understand. If we could control the weather we would! Customer Services work hard to liaise with all the pilots to ensure that customers are given the best chance of flying without too many re-schedules.
If your flight goes ahead, meet your balloon crew at the agreed location, giving plenty of time for safety briefings.
Ballooning is a weather dependent sport. Pilots cannot fly in inclement conditions. If you need to re-book your flight, the Virgin Balloon Flights call centre team will be happy to help and liaise with your pilot to discover a more suitable date. Because while you might have bought with a Virgin Balloon Flights discount, you will get the same incredible service and spectacular flight experience as every other passenger.
