About

Balloon Flights Italy is a co-operation between Ballooning in Tuscany (Italy), Virgin balloon Flight (UK) and Slowfly (Italy) to offer local as well as foreign guests safe, legal and fully licensed balloon flights in Italy. This co-operation has become possible due to the recent European integration where Commercial Air Operators can work in any of the member states of the European Union.

We are already offering balloon flights in a large part of Italy but we are still working hard to increase our launch sites and the areas we are flying over.
