Virgin Balloon Flights gets a Bad Name

Ok.... So you want a balloon ride over Cornwall (or anywhere else in Britain). Who do you go to? Well, we let Google decide. We simply type in the term 'Cornwall Balloon Flights' and then we wait to see who Google points us towards.... 99% of the time that'll be Virgin Balloon Flights. Is that the correct decision though?

We were searching Google the other day for 'Balloon Operator Reviews' and saw some interesting pages about Virgin, albeit non-complimentary.

To find out what we were talking about just visit this review site for Virgin Balloon Flights in Cornwall.

We'll keep it short, but on the whole a high percentage of their customers seem 'disappointed' and 'upset' with the hot air balloon operator.

Balloon Rides in Launceston

Balloon flights in Cornwall can be a challenge. One thing few of our passengers think about is the fact that everywhere in Cornwall is incredibly close to the coast.

That's why are favorite flight meeting location for Cornwall is on the border to Devon in a town called Launceston.

Depending on the wind direction this ballooning location is fantastic for hot air balloon rides as it allows you to either fly towards Dartmoor and Devon or alternatively towards Bodmin in Cornwall. Both areas are superb and truly make for a once in a lifetime balloon flight.
