We were up at the crack of dawn, literally. We were up at 4am, at the balloon launch site by 4:50am, and up in the air by 5:10am. Our pilot/captain was Andy from Buy a balloon ride. He and his staff were very friendly and professional...and kept us safe, which is always a good thing!
The basket can hold 14 people, plus Andy; however our group was 4 on one side and 6 on the other. It would be quite crowded at 14 people, so hopefully your group is 10-12 people so everyone has a little extra room.
The early morning flight is nice, but I think I want to try an evening/dusk flight as photographic conditions and lighting are usually a bit better. It was hot and humid, so several of my pictures have a bit of a 'haze.'
