With Christmas on the horizon, the gift of a balloon flight is the perfect way to show your loved ones how much you care. Why not make it really special this Christmas by adding our new luxury gift extras.

Choose the perfect way to deliver your Christmas gift with our ‘Merry Christmas’ balloon in a box. When opened, the red helium balloon will pop out and rise towards the sky to reveal the stylish flight voucher at the bottom of the box.

If you’re looking to indulge this Christmas, our traditional wicker sparkling and chocolates gift hamper is the perfect treat alongside your airborne adventure. The hamper includes a half bottle of the crisp, fruity Mont Marcal Brut Cava and a box of delicious milk chocolate champagne truffles. The Cava from our friends at Virgin Wines – the same as served in Virgin Atlantic’s First Class Lounges – offers pale yellow bubbles and a fruity base of ripe apples, banana, and pineapple; a balanced and elegant choice, the best way to wash down your chocolate truffles.

Don’t forget, we offer FREE delivery on everything plus express delivery option for just £6.

So, choose a Virgin Balloon Flight as your top Christmas gift this year from just £89 per person and give it an extra bit of sparkle.

Some would say it is far too early to be thinking about the dreaded ‘C’ word just yet, but with  advent calendars lining the shelves of our favourite local supermarkets, here at Virgin Balloon Flights we simply can’t help but feel a little bit of festive cheer!

Our hot air balloon rides are the perfect Christmas gift for that someone special and much better than socks or a tie (or so we think!). With launch sites in over 100 locations throughout England, Scotland and Wales, an airborne adventure is no further than a stone’s throw away from your home and an enchanting experience of a lifetime.

We have lots for you to choose from including regional vouchers to fly in specific areas allowing you to see a county of your choice like never before, or gift package flights including items such as Sir Richard Branson’s autobiography or an Italian made, engraved, crystal Champagne flute.

This adventurous Virgin Balloon Flights Christmas gift for him or for her includes a three to four hour experience with around an hour in the air in an iconic red Virgin Balloon. Your experience will commence with passenger greeting, registration and pilot safety briefing before you are invited to help with inflation of the balloon in preparation for lift off.

You will then glide in the sky for around an hour before landing and reflecting on your flight with a glass of Champagne. You will also receive a personalised certificate signed by your pilot and endorsed by Sir Richard himself. What’s more, your voucher has 12 months validity and arrives in a luxury voucher wallet with souvenir brochure. What more could they ask for.

Christmas lists at the ready; we’ll see you in the sky!
