Field notes
The state index distinguishes states with listings from those without, and the site links out rather than handling reservations itself. Its guide set also includes a comparison of private and shared flights, a festival calendar for 2026–2027, and a safety explainer referencing federal and balloon-industry sources. Featured placements are identified as paid advertising, and the site discloses that some links may earn a commission.
