I had a complicated series of issues to resolve and cannot speak highly enough of the kind and accommodating conversations I had with each and every person I spoke to. Thank you all for the superb service I received.

Amazing Customer Service, problem solved and very knowledgeable and kind person.

The company is real quality. I contacted the company 2 days after my flight voucher expired (I was unable to use it earlier due to a bereavement and other circumstances). Without any questions, or any hassle, Jean Timon extended it for an unexpected 6 months to give me enough time to sort myself out so I don't feel rushed or stressed to rebook.
Excellent customer service from a first class company. I'm so glad my husband booked this voucher with the company directly, rather than a cheaper third party provider.
I always get great service from all the company's employees!
Well done!

I was having trouble booking my flights. The live chat service was amazing and was able to assist me so I didn't need to sit on the phone. Been a great help. Really looking forward to getting in the sky.

Louise is super helpful and kind.

I wanted to extend my expiry date to accommodate a flight in June and Virgin was able to extend this without a fee due to us missing a number of previously booked flights due to cancellation. Ravi was most kind in waiving the extension fee because of this.

Looking forward to some good weather!

Nat T was just wonderful at helping me today - thank you Nat!
She helped to resolve my somewhat complex problem with ease, and had lovely manner which made me feel like I was dealing with a small local business rather than a corporate giant - love it...
Well done Virgin!
Historically, I've also had the pleasure of also dealing with Shaun H, and once again I can only sing the praises of the tight and efficient Virgin team who present as customer focused and genuinely caring.
I can't recommend them more highly.

Total scam
Total scam, do not buy anything from virgin, bought balloon flight for my boyfriend bday last April and every single flight was cancelled by the pilot due the weather even when was amazing day, after 7th cancelation I requested for full refund and I got £20 less as virgin explained they charge me for some kind of fees, I never signed any contract with them as payment was made by the phone and no one talk with me through all details, so I don't think if they had any rights to charge me for anything after all especially if I never could fly because of constant cancelation from their side, for me this is a big scam if you think of this if they charge every person £20for cancelation they making right money on it! the worst company never again and will be telling everyone to do not buy this
scam scam scam!!

Booked a Virgin hot air balloon experience directly through Virgin, booked the flight 14 times over a 4 and a half year period in multiple locations and every single time the flight was called off for multiple reasons. Then I got fed up in the end, tried to get a refund deservingly so and Virgin told me I could only get store credit so they essentially keep my money regardless of how crappy service they provided. Furthermore, when I put a review on their website and another location they deleted my reviews within 3 days to lie to future customers about the ecperience. Horrible experience. £450 wasted. Never book through them.

I emailed to make enquiry and Lynn to time to explain things to me which made my day .

Have had a voucher for over 2 years now, every booking i made, got cancelled due to weather, then my health took a turn for the worse, which left me unable to ever do this experience, very disappointed. But all was not lost, thanks to Louise Davies, at customer service, who offered a monetary refund due to my condition, very very grateful indeed

Resposta da Virgin Balloon Flights
What a friendly group of support people, sorted my issue out with ease.
Thanks for all your help.

Virgin ballon flight is a disgusting service they kept cancelling my flight four times and then they said the flights are non refundable and did not wish to exchange them for another experience.
Will never use this company again

This was something I'd been looking forward too, since having it as a 50th birthday present from my wife back in 2023. However after numerous cancellations due to weather conditions and rebooking, I should of eventually gone up June this year. On the morning of the flight, I contacted the number to check all was ok, only to be told they were using another take off site and not my chosen one. I had no way of getting to this other site on this particular day and there was absolutely no reason for them to change take off sites, they state it was due to weather conditions. No in fact, I since found that the flight was never arranged to take off from my preferred site and was always going to be from the back up site. So be aware, that even though they give options for your preferred site, it may never be arranged for there.
I did contact them direct to try to sort before the flight went, but they were not interested and kept saying the reason for the back up site was due to weather, this was NOT the case at all and as said, I did find, that it was NEVER planned to take off from where I had booked. I have also emailed and sent letters since, but they choose not to respond, as they have no interest once they've took your money.
Thanks for nothing and I hope your happy with the money you gained for doing absolutely nothing.
Edit: And as you see from the below response, they have no interest in sorting anything out, just the same info about safety. I know all about the safety aspect, as I had numerous cancellations over a 2 year period. But this particular flight was NEVER arranged to leave from my designated/preferred site. This is the bit that they won't admit too.

Booked a hot air balloon flight on black Friday with photos £300. Tried to book flight for July and nothing available, anywhere. I immediately started reading reviews and decided that my best option would be to cancel. My email cancelling was sent by six hours after purchasing and on a weekend when closed. I received six emails on the Monday stating that I needed to make sure I had the correct flight package and that I had taken out a cancellation package!! I pointed out my consumer rights and a refund was made but without the photo package that I had paid for, even though I can guarantee no company was paid for my photos! Lynn in customer services was very good but all the other automated emails just stressed me out and I'd never ever ever book again or recommend virgin hot air balloon rides as you have to pay first only to find out you can't physically book any flights.

Through my own mistake an e-ticket would have been sent to an incorrect email. Within a few hours ‘Lynn’ in customer services confirmed my original booking details and I found i had given incorrect email address. She advised the action I could take and within 1 hour of my giving correct details the e-ticket information had been corrected and delivered safely to the correct address. The service received was excellent, very efficient and timely. Absolutely superb.

Quick, efficient and above all a good outcome!
