Windward Ballooning season launches in March 2024

As we approach March our Ballooning team is gearing up for an exciting adventure – the upcoming 2024 hot-air ballooning season. With the Women's Hot Air Ballooning World Championships still fresh in our memories, anticipation is high as we prepare to take enthusiasts on a journey through the skies, offering an unparalleled experience against the backdrop of Northam's breathtaking beauty.

The beginning of a new hot air ballooning season is always a momentous occasion for us. It's a time to dust off the equipment, conduct thorough safety checks, and renew our commitment to providing safe, exhilarating rides for passengers of all ages. Not to mention the 3am starts that our Pilots and crew love.

Our Pilots are getting excited to once again see that fresh excitement as we prepare to share the magic of ballooning with both newcomers and seasoned enthusiasts.

This season, our Team are thrilled to introduce even more special packages and tailored experiences to elevate the hot air ballooning adventure. Whether it's a romantic sunrise flight for two, a family-friendly excursion, or a customized group event, we do it all and our Pilots and crew are already Buzzing with excitement to take you on a journey that is unique and unforgettable.

As the sun begins to cast its golden glow over the enchanting landscapes of Northam, Western Australia, I find myself eagerly counting down the days to the upcoming 2024 hot air ballooning season. Having witnessed the skies transform into a canvas of colours during the Women's Hot Air Ballooning World Championships last year, the anticipation for this new season is palpable.

There's definitely something magical about being suspended in the sky as the first rays of the sun paint the horizon with hues of pink and orange. The upcoming season so close, promises a symphony of sunrise flights, showing off the beauty of Northam's landscape. From the Avon River's gentle meanders to the rolling hills that cradle the town, every flight is an opportunity to witness nature's masterpiece from an unparalleled vantage point.

One of the aspects that I'm particularly thrilled about this season is the emphasis on personalized experiences. Ballooning isn't just a recreational activity; it's a journey that should resonate with all of us. Whether it's a romantic escapade for two, a family adventure, or a customized group outing, every passenger finds their own slice of sky-high bliss.

As a seasoned enthusiast, I can feel the Northam sky beckoning, I find myself on the precipice of another exciting hot air ballooning season.
