Commercial, Passenger Operations

The ABF is not responsible for commercial, passenger carrying ballooning in Australia as that responsibility resides directly with CASA. If you want to pay for a balloon flight, please contact a commercial ballooning company in your area. We have a list of many of the commercial ballooning companies around Australia on our links page.
