How high does it go

Rwc | Sep 13, 2021
Charles W Phinizy 3 | Sep 13, 2021

The balloon goes up 400 feet. Also Bryan is correct that it is free. My family just went last week. It was a very nice experience for everyone. It moves at a slow pace so even my eldest who doesn't like heights enjoyed herself. It can take up to two hours in line...so get there very early. However call first to check with the office in relation to the weather...they will advise you based on the pilot decision of whether it will be operational or not that day or night flight. Enjoy

I asked, but I didn't take the ride. I think she said we'd have to 15 minutes at that time and we'd be up there for 45 minutes. I hope I'm remembering correctly for you. Have fun!
