I've never flown a plane before and jumped into the advanced air combat mission - it was insane…read morefun! An experienced and fun-hungry pilot sits in the back seat and you sit in the front. He shows you a maneuver then you take control and repeat. Then you go into a combat setting and the reigns are yours to take down the other plane in the sky! Your plane is equipped with lasers and a sight and when you hit the target smoke comes out of their plane! It seems crazy this is allowed for the general public but the planes are the most capable acrobatic planes bar-none and the pilots in the back make sure you don't expose yourself to anything unsafe. These planes get tossed around, flipped, stalled, etc. and they get corrected as though it never happened. If you communicate your stomach/head status to your co-pilot they will keep your flight to your physical abilities...if you want to be aggressive...you push g's until you pass out! The dark stars were creeping into my vision twice during my flight but I hung on and stayed conscious haha sounds insane but if you are an adventure seeker this is an absolute must! Take a friend with you if you can so you can dogfight each other in the sky!

Fighter Combat International bills the aerobatic Super Ride as "The Flight of Your Life". That's a…read moretough claim to live up to, but I can confidently say that it's absolutely true. All of the staff are incredibly friendly, and incredibly professional. It's nice to have that confidence, as a client, when your life depends on them. My wife was a spectator, but she was welcomed like family. She was allowed to be in my briefing session, took pictures on the flight line before and after the ride, and while I was flying she had someone with her explaining what was happening as she listened to the intercom chatter from my flight. The ride is everything I ever dreamed it would be, then some. It was truly a "bucket list" flight. I was fortunate enough to not have stomach or G-force issues, so we went through all the maneuvers possible in my allotted time. My flight instructor, JD, was the best I could have hoped for. He was friendly, patient, and extremely capable. JD also spent a lot of time after the ride with my wife and I answering questions (debriefing) and running through some of the highlights from the resulting video. The video I received at the end was very high quality, and the perfect memory of the flight. I've rarely been impressed with a company enough to give a perfect rating, but this is one rare exception. I (and my wife) are HUGE fans.

One of my bucket list items was to ride in a hot air balloon, and for my recent birthday, my…read morehusband surprised me with this epic adventure! We met the team early on a Saturday morning, and I couldn't believe that we were going in a small basket. I almost jumped in the van with the 15+ group, but instead it was basically a private ride - just Kevin, his niece, his wife, and the two of us. (The other two were helpful when we landed, not to mention photos. Kevin's wife is an expert at getting the best photos. She took the rising sun shot of me that is no doubt the best photo ever taken involving me!) Kevin is a seasoned pro, and the trip showed. We went up high, where we could see the mountains by Flagstaff, the mountains by Tucson, and everything that lay in between. But then, being a smaller, more maneuverable balloon, we were able to skim along the desert hills. We soared just over the tips of the saguaro cacti, and Kevin told us all about the desert flora and fauna. We saw several jackrabbits and even a coyote. This is not the experience you get in the larger balloons, and it's absolutely magical! We eventually landed in the middle of a housing community, which brought a crowd of interested onlookers, but the chase team showed up quickly to load up the balloon while we heard the tale of the first balloonists and then drank a champagne toast to the rising sun while we listened to the Balloonist's Prayer. It was truly a special event, and it did not disappoint in any way. It is hard to live up to something you've always dreamed of doing, but somehow Kevin and his team made it all that and then some.

I can't recommend this company enough. Debbie and Kevin made the experience absolutely…read moreunforgettable and helped my fiancé plan a surprise proposal. Kevin kept us entertained in the air with some cool stories and fun facts about hot air ballooning and Debbie was so energetic and pleasant while on the ground. The basket is small and intimate but we preferred it that way. We were worried about the landing but it couldn't have been smoother.

Fantastic experience. We booked the day before on a whim. The only negative was getting up for the…read more5am meeting time, but it was so worth it. I've always wanted to go in a hot air balloon and found the price very reasonable. We liked supporting an owner / operator establishment. Jon and Lindsay's love of ballooning was obvious. They could answer ANY question about the area, mechanics, etc. We felt very safe during the ride. I brought my eight year old who did get a little tired standing but she survived. They had a stool available for her to see better. Only two other riders with us so a very intimate experience. The views are amazing. Enjoyed the toast at the end during clean up. I very much recommend the experience.

If that doesn't say something I don't know what you're waiting for! We drove to office where the baskets are of all sizes! From there we're driven out to where we would take off. We flew over Peoria a lovely neighborhood and saw some wild life in the way. Jon educated the group in how everything worked and the back story of how hot air ballooning came about. Finishing off our trip with mimosas. Will have to bring the family back here for sure, thank you! You also receive a certificate from your flight
