Q: I plan to visit Barcelona with a friend who have limited mobility and is using a wheelchair. Is it possible for her to take part in a hot air balloon flight?

A: Though balloons are accessible for wheelchair and there are provided parking spaces for disabled people (for additional information – Car Rental in Barcelona and Car Rental in Spain), Hot Air Balloon Flight is not one of the most suitable attractions in Barcelona for those who have problem with mobility (for additional information – Accessibility in Barcelona and Attractions and Tours in Barcelona).

The number of places for travelers who need to use a wheelchair is limited (1 or 2 persons in every flight). Therefore, if your friend is with a wheelchair, she have to inform the staff about it in advance.

Moreover, her physical conditions need to be suitable for transferring her into one of the special seats reserved for tourists with disabilities.
