Transfers & Directions from Port Douglas Accomodation

Hot Air is Port Douglas' most popular balloon ride operator because of our later pickup times, daily serice and comfortable coaches are all unmatched elsewhere.

Our Hot Air Balloon flights from Port Douglas all include return transfers in seat belt equipped, air conditioned coaches (most with DVD players also ) - Please find here a list of Port Douglas hotels that Hot Air do pickup from - ie. the authorised list.  It is possible that we can collect you from other Port Douglas accommodation but you need to check with us first.

Please note that hotel locations north of Port Douglas like Silky Oaks and Daintree Eco Lodge plus some executive retreat type properties will need to book our luxury hot air balloon tour with limousine pickup.

Note also that times change seasonally to make the best of our sunrise time and also allow as much sleep in time as possible for you! Your live online booking with us will give you the exact time when you checkout.

Please ensure you double check with us and reconfirm your time before travel, do not rely absolutely on these times as they may alter depending on operational requirements.   It's great to let us know your mobile number and room number before the day of travel in case we have any difficulty finding you.  Also consider our range of Port Douglas Day Tours for your convenience,  or we can transfer you to Cairns Airport at the conclusion of your trip by 10.30am.
