What To Wear?
Dubai is lucky enough to have sunny weather year-round. However, some months are warmer than others. As The Dubai Balloon At Atlantis will operate throughout the year, ensure you are aware of the weather conditions during your visit.
October to April is considered winter, and the temperatures are pleasant, with the coldest months being November to January. Bring a jacket, as it might be cooler once the balloon reaches its maximum height, especially at night. Comfortable, casual clothing such as shorts, t-shirts and dresses are recommended.
From May to September, always wear cool, loose clothing during the summer. If you are visiting from Aquaventure Waterpark, you are allowed to embark on the flight in respectable swimming clothes permitted by the waterpark.
Big bags will not be permitted onboard; however, backpacks and purses will be allowed. We suggest to avoid wearing high heels.
