Two Booking Options

Hot air ballooning is susceptible to weather conditions, and there are days when it cannot be operated.
The procedures for cancellation differ between the two plans.

Fixed-price plan

- Same price throughout the year (excluding Golden Week, Obon, and New Year's).

- You can change the date as many times as you like for one year after booking.

No refunds will be given for cancellations due to customer reasons or weather conditions.

- Refunds are available if there are four or more weather-related cancellations in a single year.
Recommended for those who are willing to change their schedule and try again as many times as needed until they can ride in a hot air balloon!

Variable pricing plan

• Prices vary depending on the day of the week and season. • Full refund in case of cancellation due to weather. • Date changes are possible up to 3 days before the experience. • No refunds for cancellations due to customer reasons. • Perfect for special occasions such as anniversaries, birthdays, or trips!
