Safety
How we keep it boring
- Flights operate under Egyptian Civil Aviation Authority licensing.
- Pilots hold commercial balloon licences with a minimum of 1,000 flight hours.
- Maximum wind speed and visibility limits are checked before every launch.
- Passengers must be able to climb into the basket; children under 5 cannot fly.
Balloon flights run every morning when the wind allows. The aviation authority clears launches the evening before, so we confirm your exact pickup time by WhatsApp after 19:00.
Wear closed shoes and a jacket — the desert is cold before sunrise. Cameras are welcome; the pilot will tell you when it is safe to stand.
Request a balloon flight
Tell us your date and hotel. We confirm the flight time the evening before, based on wind and visibility.

What happens if it is windy?
We cancel and refund in full, or move you to the next morning if your schedule allows.
Is there a weight limit?
Passengers over 120 kg pay for a second seat for safety. Tell us in advance and we will confirm.
