Accordion Content
We’ve flown a lot of balloons in the sky over Chester County, PA. From our experience, the most popular months to fly is April through mid-November, and the most popular flight time is Saturday at sunset. Thanks to the conditions these months are known for (air quality and clarity, visibility) it’s likely you’ll catch a glimpse of breathtaking views of the Schuylkill river, the Philadelphia city skyline, and the rolling hills of neighboring counties (Berks County, Delaware County).
Our estimation is a little different than Chester County, PA’s ‘tourism score’ due to the uniqueness of conditions that are required to conduct a hot air balloon flight.
