Hi there! Welcome to AE Balloon Flights, LLC (AEBF) NEW website. I would encourage you to check back often with us when you feel like giving yourself a ‘lift’.
We are a FULL-time balloon business in York, PA. We fly twice daily, 7 days/week. We offer one of the best "bird's-eye" views of South Central Pennsylvania from a hot air balloon, here in beautiful York, PA. Soar over York and Lancaster Counties' rolling hills and open farmlands. Fly inches above the waters of the Susquehanna River.
We are the only balloon offering flights over and around the Susquehanna River! Come and experience the beauty of the Lower Susquehanna Valley area from aloft. I’m sure “We Can Change Your Altitude!”
Please take a look around our site. I've tried to give a nice mix of information and a variety of cool photos of our adventures. We've tried to give you a realistic feeling of what you can expect to see on your flight. It’s the next best thing to actually taking a flight with us. If after perusing our site, you still have more questions, PLEASE feel free to give us a call and we'll be happy to answer any questions you may still have.
Here at AEBF, we're already gearing up for what will hopefully be a great flying season and wonderful year for 2010. Be sure to check out the links at the top of the page of “Our Photo Galleries” of Flights including a few Festivals and new Tethered events, right here in our own backyard. That should get some attention with our 6 story tall balloon.
Or maybe you’ll get a chance to venture a walk inside of a balloon in our new walk-thru, Galaleo. (see center photo below) Be sure to stop by, support the local event and take a "teaser" ride and ask us lots of questions about YOUR next ride.
Click a green button (on the left) to explore more about our hot air ballooning adventures. We have a List of Festivals, that we’re excited to attend and few that we’d recommend as well.
The Contracts & Auctions button is for those wanting to inquire more about our tether contracts, sell sheets, press releases & brochures. We would like to help support your auction, raffle & fundraiser. Click this link to learn more, but first you’ll have to call or email for the ‘User ID’ and ‘Password’.
Welcome to AE Balloon Flights

These have been a long time in the making. We now have our newest addition (AE2) and included our Walk-thru balloon.
We’ve recently joined 3 of the local Visitor Centers (links at the bottom). You can now find our brochures at each of these and their affiliated offices, 15 Welcome Centers around the Commonwealth, 2 PA Turnpike Service Plazas, 1 Rest Stop on 81 South, and now in AAA 40+ clubs and offices in the eastern PA & NJ region.
If you happen to see us on the field or our chase crew along your travels, stop and ask for a colorful brochure or business card. REMEMBER: Don’t talk too long, they’re on a mission.
Of course it’s just a taste compared to the rest of our website or even a real flight with us. You can also check out our Downloads on “Booking Your Flight” page for more information!

Yes, we made the cover of the 2010 Official York County Visitors Guide! Our cover received 46% of the total votes. It was our big break to be on the cover of York County Convention and Visitor Bureau’s visitor’s guide. Now there wasn’t much on the inside about us (page 24) but, “A Picture is worth a Thousand words,” and I’m very pleased with the outcome. Thank You for telling your friends and families and their friends and families!!
