Funny, just saw the bullshit that was left under my review from around 8 years ago. Robert you want…read moreme to elaborate even though I told you over the phone all those years ago? Here's the story everyone. I did have plans weeks in advance to take my dad out for a ride for his 60th. We showed up on time at 4 am and waited around for over 2 hours. Another balloon was let up and then we were told we weren't going because "the very tops of the trees were slightly moving," and we were told to reschedule. Upon that reschedule date coming up, my grandfather had been diagnosed with Alzheimer's and very much wanted to have a big family dinner before his memory started to go. I explained this to you. You called me a liar and made me feel horrible for putting my family first. It has been 8 years and I'm still livid about how this situation was handled. Hope all your balloons in life pop, Robert.

But that morning it was perfect and we had a spectacular flight. His crew was super knowledgeable, and everything went flawlessly. We had an awesome time. Highly recommended!

My boyfriend and I had an incredible flight with Spirit Ballooning for his birthday. Jordan and his…read morefamily were really friendly and went the extra mile to give us an unforgettable outing. The scenery was absolutely beautiful and the picnic at the end of our flight made the whole experience special. Spirit Ballooning's website has a booking function, which made selecting a date and time for our flight really easy. I would definitely recommend going on a flight with Spirit Ballooning, it will truly be an experience that you will never forget!

I wish I could rate 10 stars! Our flight with Jordan was one of the best experiences of the summer…read more What a beautiful place to fly and such a lovely family. We were completely at ease before and during the flight because of how Jordan and Darrel explained what was happening with the weather and balloon. This is truly a family owned and operated business through and through. Make sure to stick around for the champagne celebration at the end of the flight! Thanks so much Jordan and Darrel!

Received a gift certificate many, many years ago. I had called numerous times to set up a flight,…read morebut the weather was never "looking good" enough. Eventually I put the gift certificates away and forgot about them. They unfortunately expired in 1995. Today, I found those gift certificates and called to see if they could honor them or if I could simply pay the difference as I'm sure the price has increased. A very rude woman answered the phone and lectured me that they should have been used back then. I could not believe how horribly I was spoken to. A simple "no, we apologize but we cannot honor it" would have sufficed.

A friend and I went to the Adirondack hot air balloon festival and found Rich Hamilton through…read moretheir website. I didn't know much about him, and there wasn't anything online, but Rich mentioned he had 20 years of piloting experience so I figured it would be OK. I'm writing a review because we had such a wonderful time and wanted others to feel at ease booking him. He was super professional, clearly knew what he was doing, and made safety a number one priority (also my priority). I also really appreciated his crew and especially, his wife. They went above and beyond to make sure we had an enjoyable time down to simple things like taking pictures to us and giving us water while we were waiting. Afterwards there was also champagne. I mention these things because because the simple gestures showed that they cared and clearly enjoyed what they were doing. Would book with him again!
