Wheelchair Accessible Flights Above the Willamette ValleyAt Portland Rose Balloons, we believe the beauty and peace of hot air balloon flight should be something everyone has the opportunity to experience. We’re proud to now offer wheelchair accessible hot air balloon flights with our specially designed accessible basket. With a ramp door entry and open interior design, this basket allows wheelchair users to board without climbing over the side of a traditional basket. It’s a unique opportunity to experience the quiet magic of balloon flight while floating above the Willamette Valley at sunrise.
Whether this has been a lifelong dream, a bucket list experience, or a special celebration with family and friends, we would be honored to share it with you. Designed With Accessibility in MindMost of our commercial hot air balloon baskets already feature doors designed to make loading and unloading easier for passengers. However, traditional balloon basket doors are not wide enough to accommodate a wheelchair.
Our new accessible basket was specifically designed with a wider door-style entry and open interior layout, allowing wheelchair users to board with ease. Features of the accessible basket include:
