Schedule
BALLOON FLIGHTS will be conducted according to the schedule, weather permitting. Morning flights will typically take off around Jindřichův Hradec. The current wind directions are crucial for the competition director's decision-making. In the evening, if the weather allows, the balloons will arrive at the airport before sunset or will take off en masse from the airport.
The decision about the flight and its location is made by the event's director based on the current weather conditions before each individual takeoff and flight at the participants' briefing.
SPECTATORS & THE PUBLIC will be informed about the planned takeoff and flight approximately 1 hour in advance through our Facebook page:
