Unlike most other aircraft, hot air balloons do not require the use of a traditional airport. In fact, they often avoid airports to stay clear of other air traffic. Hot air balloons often use school and church yards, as well as public parks to launch and land. At Air Time Ballooning, we try to stay clear of heavily populated areas, where these types of clearings are not as common.
