How a Teambuilding Balloon Flight Works
A corporate teambuilding flight in a hot air balloon is the perfect activity for companies looking for an original idea that employees will genuinely appreciate.
The experience begins with a meeting at a pre-arranged location – often directly at the hotel, company premises, or another suitable nearby field.
After arrival, you’ll receive a safety briefing and watch the balloon being prepared, which takes about 10 minutes. The inflation of the giant envelope is a spectacular sight that immediately sets the mood for a shared experience. Once the balloon is ready, everyone boards the basket for an approximately 60-minute scenic flight. During the flight, your team will enjoy silence, stunning views, and an informal atmosphere perfect for conversation and team bonding outside the usual work environment.
After landing comes the traditional part of the experience – the first-flight baptism, a glass of sparkling wine, and presentation of flight certificates as a memorable keepsake from your company event. Finally, our team will take you back to the meeting point or another agreed location.
The entire experience lasts about 2 to 3 hours. A hot air balloon flight is an ideal highlight of a full-day or multi-day teambuilding program, which can also include accommodation, catering, or evening entertainment.
What We Offer for Companies
- Balloons for 2 to 20 passengers (larger groups = multiple balloons flying together)
- Complete organization from start to finish – planning, communication, coordination
- Take-off and landing near your hotel or chosen location anywhere in the Czech Republic
- Year-round operation, including winter flights – the burner’s warmth makes it comfortable even in cold weather
- Option for balloon branding and personalized flight certificates
- Photo & video documentation (on request)
- Catering, coffee break, or breakfast before or after the flight
How the Flight Unfolds
We Only Fly in Suitable Weather
Your safety is our top priority. That’s why our pilots carefully and responsibly monitor weather conditions and have the right to cancel the flight if the weather could affect flight safety.
In unfavorable weather, the views from the balloon are also not as beautiful – and we don’t want you to miss out on them.
Why Companies Choose a Hot Air Balloon Flight for Teambuilding
A hot air balloon flight is more than just a trip above the clouds – it’s a shared experience that connects people outside the office environment. That’s why it’s becoming an increasingly popular choice for companies seeking unconventional teambuilding activities.
Unlike standard corporate events, a balloon flight allows employees to experience something extraordinary together – peace, breathtaking views, and a touch of adrenaline at altitude. The flight naturally encourages relaxed communication, bonding, and teamwork in a calm, inspiring setting.
At the same time, it’s a type of teambuilding that requires no special physical skills or preparation. People of different ages and professions can easily take part. Many corporate clients also choose ballooning as part of multi-day retreats with accommodation, combining work sessions with active experiences.
A balloon flight can be easily combined with additional services such as:
- Hotel or guesthouse accommodation
- Catering or coffee break
- Evening entertainment
- Photo and video documentation as a lasting memory of the event
- Balloon or certificate branding with the company logo
Thanks to this flexibility, a hot air balloon flight is also ideal for client events, partner meetings, or employee appreciation programs. It delivers emotions that last – and that’s exactly what great teambuilding is all about.

I received a sightseeing balloon flight as a birthday gift. After the experience, I must say it definitely won’t be my only one :-)
Thank you, Mr. Kostrhun, for the wonderful flight over the Pálava Hills. It truly is a once-in-a-lifetime experience! I highly recommend it to everyone!
A beautiful flight over Brno, with a smooth landing in a meadow near Kuřim. Excellent service – I can only recommend FlyBalloon to everyone.
We had a wonderful time in the balloon basket during our flight near Telč, thanks also to the professional approach of the pilot and crew.
Pavla and Adam Kučera gives a thumbs up!

How does a balloon flight work?
1. Book your flight date
Reserve your chosen flight date.2. Confirmation
Our pilots will contact you by phone or SMS before the scheduled flight date. Based on the current weather, they will confirm whether the flight will take place or be canceled.– For evening flights: confirmation is sent the same day between 12:00–14:00.
– For morning flights: confirmation is sent the previous afternoon or evening (no later than 21:00).
In the confirmation call or SMS you will be given the exact meeting time and take-off location. Please do not arrive earlier than the scheduled meeting time.3. Meeting at the launch site
We’ll meet at the departure point and explain how everything will proceed (where to stand during inflation, when to board the balloon, etc.).4. Balloon preparation and take-off
Inflating the balloon takes about 15–20 minutes. The pilot and crew will prepare everything carefully and check all equipment. If you’re interested, you can take part in the preparation.5. The flight
During the flight you can take photos, wave to people, ask the pilot questions – but above all, enjoy the moment! A typical flight lasts about 60 minutes, but depending on the weather and terrain, it can be shortened or extended by up to 15 minutes. Balloons usually fly between 150–500 meters above ground for the best view of details on the landscape. If you’d like to fly higher and conditions allow, the pilot will gladly take you up.6. Balloonist’s baptism and toast
After landing, you will be “elevated to balloonist nobility” and we’ll toast to your new noble title and safe landing. Ballooning traditions say that anyone flying for the first time is “born again” and therefore must be elevated and granted a new noble title.7. Return transport
At the end, after a successful flight and a glass of champagne, we’ll board the support vehicle and drive you back to the meeting point. -
What to Wear and Bring?
Keep in mind that the entire experience takes place outdoors. Take-off and landing usually happen in a field. The best choice is sporty, darker-colored clothing (it may get dirty) – similar to what you’d wear for a walk in the woods. In general, we recommend long trousers and an extra layer (after sunset, the landing site can cool down quickly). Shoes are crucial: sturdy sports shoes are a must, preferably waterproof. It is strictly forbidden to fly in slip-on shoes (Crocs, flip-flops, sandals) or high heels.
During the flight, feel free to take photos or videos – there is enough space in the basket for a camera, phone, or small backpack. -

– Passengers under the influence of alcohol, narcotics, or psychotropic substances are not permitted to fly. The pilot has the right to exclude any passenger suspected of being under such influence.
