How much weight can a hot air balloon carry?

Answer by  waskasoo (471)

The carrying capacity of a hot air balloon is quite dependent on several factors. The obvious one is the size of the balloon. A bigger balloon can carry a bigger load. But the size of the basket matters for physical capacity. And ambient air temperature is also a significant factor. The best thing is to check with the balloon company.

Some ballons are bigger so more people can fit in it. The maximum number of persons you can fit in a hot air ballon is 14-16 that weigh 2530-3080 pounds.

Hot air balloons can carry a varying amount of weight. The bigger it is, the more it can carry. If your group is large, you'll need a very big balloon.
