Before you book

Common questions about our flights.

Rohr Balloons answers common hot air balloon flight questions for passengers departing from McKinney, Texas and the DFW Metroplex.

Which flight is right for me?
Shared champagne flights (from $329 per person) are the easiest way to fly — you join a small group of up to 12 passengers. Private flights (from $1,195, up to 6 passengers) reserve the whole basket. Engagement and wedding flights add planning for the big moment, and tethered rides and team building cover events and groups.
When do flights take off?
We fly at sunrise and at sunset, when the air is calmest. Meeting times vary by season — generally about half an hour before sunrise and about two and a half hours before sunset.
How long does the experience last?
Flight time is approximately one hour — sometimes a little longer, depending on winds and landing opportunities. The full experience — briefing, flight, packing the balloon, champagne toast, and chase-vehicle return — runs approximately 3.5 hours.
What happens if the weather doesn't cooperate?
Your pilot confirms flight status by text and email 2-24 hours before flight time, depending on weather. If weather cancels the flight, we rebook you to your next available date at no charge — we never fly when winds aren't right.
How many people can fly at once?
Shared flights carry up to 12 passengers per flight. Private flights reserve the basket for 2-6 passengers; 5 or 6 private passengers are $2,195. For larger groups and events, tethered rides cycle guests up a few at a time.
Where do you launch, and what area do you serve?
Passenger flights launch from our home field in McKinney, Texas, with the exact spot chosen each day based on wind. Tethered events, corporate advertising, and team building travel across Texas and the Central U.S. — and beyond for the right event; see our service areas for details.
