The fun soars to new heights at Downtown Disney with an iconic new tethered balloon that takes guests on ascents of up to 400 feet above the waterfront.
Characters in Flight operated by Aerophile, a 72-foot-diameter balloon, can lift up to 30 guests at a time on a six-minute trip – thanks to its enclosed volume of 210,000 cubic feet of lighter-than-air gas. The ascents, by day or night, provide guests with unparalleled, 360-degree vistas.
Guests board a gondola beneath the 105-foot-high balloon from a landing platform on Village Lake at the end of the main promenade at Downtown Disney West Side. Tickets ($16 for ages 10-up and $10 for ages 3-9) can be purchased on site. Availability is on first-come, first-served basis.
An awesome addition to Downtown Disney, too bad with Florida’s weather this will only see air time 3 days of the year
