Balloon flight with dinner

Are you planning a balloon flight with friends, family, business relations, or employees and wish to combine this activity with a cozy gathering during a dinner? Then a balloon flight with dining is the ideal mix of the two. Organizing a balloon flight on your own initiative that concludes with dinner at your favorite restaurant turns out to be not so evident in reality.

Ballooning is one of the few air sports practiced just before sunset.

The landing time often coincides closely with sunset. Combining a concluding dinner at a restaurant with a beautiful balloon flight is a successful combination in winter and autumn periods. It becomes much more challenging once daylight saving time comes into effect.

The late landing time makes it nearly impossible to respect the closing time of a restaurant. During those times of the year, fast food is often the only refuge.

In summer periods, you can choose at Spildooren Ballooning for a balloon flight with concluding dinner at the landing site. The flavorful culinary experience provided by our certified chef, combined with a breathtaking balloon flight, awakens the foodie in all of us.

How does a culinary balloon flight proceed?

Upon arrival at the take-off location, there is an extensive briefing with essential safety instructions for the flight. Ballooning is one of the safest air sports in the world. The pilot will also explain this extensively during the briefing along with various do’s and don’ts as well as landing positions and specific flight details. During the briefing, you can address your most pressing questions to the pilot.

Individual guidance for each passenger is central to Spildooren Ballooning.

After take-off, it’s time to enjoy an hour of silence and tranquility above the Flemish landscape.

Upon landing, you will be greeted by our professional catering team, who will manage the culinary part smoothly. After storing away the hot air balloon, you sit down at the table and start enjoying a unique culinary experience amidst nature.

The breathtaking views, personal guidance for each passenger, and dining in an airy relaxed atmosphere are just some of the many assets this flight has to offer.

Fear of heights?

Are there some people who suffer from fear of heights? Let that not be an issue! During a hot air balloon ride, you make no physical contact with the ground, which automatically reduces nervousness.

What clothing for balloon flights?

The clothing needed during flight is almost identical to what you need on the ground.

Some must-haves:

• Long pants
• Sturdy shoes
• Thick jacket

A thick jacket is not necessary during flight. However, it is required during the concluding dinner.

In a hot air balloon, it is not much colder than on the ground. Flying at higher altitudes results in cooling by a few degrees. The heat radiation from the burners compensates for this cooling.
