I just wanted to thank you for the wonderful memories that we know get
to carry with us. We both enjoyed learning about ballooning and the ride
itself was absolutely breathtaking! Even the "jokes" were great. Thanks
for the professionalism and kindness.
We will return and recommend to all of our friends and family to you.

During our week long vacation in Orlando, Florida, we scheduled an
airboat ride, hot air balloon and swimming with Manatee's. Without a
doubt, Captain Jeff and his happy crew were the best hosts in town.
Although safety is of the utmost concern, they have not forgotten what
it means to have a good time...even at 6:00 am! And after the ride, they
don't just drop you off and disappear. They were there throughout the
following breakfast and made sure everyone was treated well by the
restaurant staff. Without a doubt, this was by far the best value for
the money during our vacation. Yes, the flight was incredible, but it
was Captain Jeff and his crew that really, really made it all worth
while. You want to feel special instead of just another tourist shelling
out money? Go with Captain Jeff and crew. You will not be disappointed!

Dear Capt. Jeff
Thank you for an amazing experience. We had a perfect morning for the
flight and we have looked at the video and pictures again and again.
Thank you too for the personal attention and being so kind to our two
grandchildren. They certainly will never forget the flight. Luke is
still wearing his baseball cap....in bed!!! Jill and Rex Cory
Hope that you are
feeling better and am sorry that we did not get to meet you. I took
a balloon ride on Feb. 29 and just wanted you to know what a
magnificant job your brother Jon did as pilot as well as the rest of
the crew. From
liftoff to landing the flight was fantastic and Jon, Pat, and Kim
made it a very personal, educational and memorable experience not
only for me but for my wife and friends who were there to witness
it. I would recommend Thompson Aire to anyone who would like to take
a balloon ride and in particular with Jon as the pilot. His skills,
knowledge and enthusiasm make one feel very confident and safe. We
had alot of laughs along the way and the saying on your T-Shirts is
certainly true in that the jokes are the most dangerous Part of the
Flight!!
Again, I hope you are
feeling better and are off of the couch and flying again.
Best of Luck, and here's
to Many Gentle winds and Soft Landings,

I will now have a yearly tradition when I
visit FL every year! Everything everyone has said here is absolutely
true. I am still searching for the right words to describe the feelings
I had during my first flight...I was is in awe and still am. Looking up
at the balloons this
morning over the house I envy them. I still can't stop smiling, the
champagne toast with the baloonists prayer had me holding back tears.
Jeff thanks so much for sharing your part of the world and your pure
joy, it made my first time unforgettable.. you know what they say you
never forget your 1st no one could ever compare! All the
best at Nationals, please keep in touch, Ruthie

WOW!!! What else can be said? Jeff and his entire crew are awesome.
Within 5 minutes, I knew I was with the right people. Jeff's love of hot
air balloons and knowledge of the sport is amazing and infectious. Where
do I pick up an application?!?!

Wonderful flight! Great Captain! Up, up and
away!!!!! You know it's the best thing ever when your little nieces talk
about the balloon ride more than about Disney World! I have dreamed
about this for years and now I know we will go again! The little girls
love their T-shirts too! All 6 of us are still talking about the history
of ballooning! Sammy talks about catching the cork! Thanks for a great
first balloon ride Jeff. You made us work for it, but what a wonderful
memory we all have! Up, up and away!!!!

I wanted to thank Jeff for making my first balloon flight one of the
best experiences of my life. I have a terrible fear of heights which
never bothered me once during the flight and I cannot wait to come back
to Orlando and do it all again. Thank you sooooo much and yes....I am
STILL smiling. I will recommend you to everyone.

Hi Jeff, You flew with me in 1998. I am the pilot from Germany. You gave
me the rates for the next balloon size. We had together wonderful
flights. You have a very nice web site! If you need a pilot for your
company, I would fly with pleasure for you. Wish you always Glück ab und
gut Land. Greetings from Germany, Holger Hartmann <image

It was the best experience of our lives even our 8 year old daughter loved
it, well except for the landing part but that was just down right funny.
Thank you sooo much again for a wonderful time in the air. It was very
memorable. We will be back to do it all over again.

Flying in a balloon is like floating on a bubble. There's absolutely
nothing scary about it, and Jeff makes the flight so much fun! I hated
to see the flight end.

Thank you once again for being our pilot on this flight. This was the
most the fantastic experience for our family. It fulfilled my wife's
ambition to take a balloon flight. It is an experience that words cannot
easily describe. Your expertise, professionalism, and skills make the
experience something to treasure forever. The jokes however are
something else! If you are going to take a Florida balloon ride - then
without doubt, I give Thompson Aire my fullest recommendation! 6

Message: Just a quick note to say thanks for the second most memorable
experience of my recentl stay (it would have been the first but I guess
that had better be my wedding) Having flown with Jeff before when I
found out Thompson Aire existed there was never any other choice in my
opinion. Although my new wife is a little unhappy with you for making me
more determined to learn to fly than ever!
We do suggest everyone read
About the Aircraft
You can tell Capt Thompson used to be
a flight instructor!
