Good organisation, constant communication, picked up and taken to the hotel. Briefing before the flight. The flight itself went smoothly. Payment must be made in full immediately. Impressions: Not scary at all, I would even like a little more extreme. The captain was experienced, we rose to 1350 metres and descended to 20 metres.
We saw gazelles in the desert, flew over a village and a large sand dune. Advice: it is better to sit at the edge of the basket, as it is not very easy to take photos near the burners due to the roof and fastenings, and there is a smell of gas from time to time.
The entire support process after booking was very well organised. They contacted me via WhatsApp, processed the order, and then kept in touch until the day of the flight. The logistics were also well organised. The flight itself took exactly one hour. We didn’t see the sunrise itself because of the clouds, but the sun appeared from behind the clouds during the flight. I was left with excellent impressions of the flight, it wasn’t scary at all, perhaps because the balloon flew very smoothly and quite slowly.
I was looking for a hot air balloon flight in Dubai on various websites, and this offer attracted me because it was from a well-known organiser and was reasonably priced. However, due to the high dollar exchange rate on Sputnik at the time, the price in roubles was the same as all the other offers. The order required full prepayment, so I paid 100% with my Mir card.
In general, it was the same as on other websites and convenient for me. The day before the flight, I had to register on the website of the company organising the flight, sign a form and bring my passport, which no one actually checked, but maybe they do sometimes.
