Hot air ballooning in the South West of England

Feb. 10, 2010 - PRLog -- A balloon flight enables you to take part in history. One of the oldest forms of aviation, it started in 1783, before planes, airships or anything else. Yet it’s simplicity remains the same even today. With a wicker basket and an intrepid pilot a balloon ride with South West Balloon Flights (SWBF) is truly a memorable experience.

The people behind SWBF (http://www.southwestballoonflights.co.uk) have over 20 years experience in the hot air ballooning industry. Having flown all over the world, they’ve all returned to the England to teach, encourage and promote safe ballooning and offer hot air balloon rides over the South West of England.

The companies director, Arthur Street, set up his first balloon flight’s business in 1987, just when ballooning was getting commercial and taking off. The company operated in Exeter, Devon, expanding quickly to cover the whole county. Then by 1995 it started expanding rapidly, covering most of the counties in the South West of England.

Now in 2010 Arthur has just started South West Balloon Flights as his second balloon ride operation, targeting a whole new sector of the experience and activities market. The company is an online hot air balloon flight business, enabling passengers to purchase and book on flights online. Which saves on administration time and costs allowing customers to purchase cheap balloon flights at incredible rates. On average saving more than 15% compared to other balloon flight operators in the Devon, Cornwall, Somerset and Dorset regions in the Southern half of England (http://www.southwestballoonflights.co.uk/flight-locations).
