Review: Spring of 2013 I purchased 2 flights with Aerogelic. I had booked the flights but had to cancel due to my husband's cancer treatment. We had to return to WA. At that time I was told the certificate was good for 6 mos. and to add an extension it would cost an additional $100 when we returned in the fall. I did this and booked our flight. I needed to change the date a couple of times and did so w/out a problem. On Sun. April6, 2014, I received a call from [redacted] stating we couldn't fly due to the fact that our certificate had expired. I informed him we had bought an extension. He told me the extension had expired too. I had stated that no one told me there was an expiration for the extension. he said he would check with the owner, called back and said no go. I called and left a message for the owner to call but to no avail. We are out close to $400 for the flight and extension.Desired Settlement: I would like to be refunded the money to my credit card.

None of this information provided by the customer is true. Mrs. [redacted] purchased a time limited (good to use within 6months) valid 2/22/13. She paid a discounted price of only $159 per person for a certificate of 2. This service is standard retail price of $179 per person. The limitation on the certificate saved her $40 during time of purchase. When she was cancelled due to bad weather one time and couldnt find another time within that 6 months to use the certificate we offered to renew this certificate for an additional 6 months for only $50 per person. She refused this service. She than wanted to schedule a flight using this certificate 4/8/14 over 7 months after the expiration date. We advised her the certificate was no longer valid and we would be happy to offer her another largely discounted flight of only $125 per person, and she threatened to tarnish the name of the company unless we gave her this flight with a certificate that was over a year old. We refuse to give in to customer blackmail, or extortion.

Response:

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID [redacted], and have determined that this proposed action would not resolve my complaint. For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below.

I did purchase an extension when I came back to AZ this fall. At no time was I told the extension had an expiration date or we would have used it. It is ludicrous to say I was going to tarnish the business? Don't have a clue where this came from. My husband was and is being treated for bladder cancer. I told them I could get a letter from Dr. Webster stating why we had to cancel initially last spring. Yes - I knew the initial certificate was good for 6 mos. Through the 3 or 4 phone calls to the business to schedule this flight, I'm very surprised nothing was stated to me about the expiration until 2 days prior to the flight.

Regards,

If you are able to provide proof of an extended certificate I would be happy to consider working out an agreement.

An Amazing adventure and experience of a lifetime!! Professional pilot (Shane) and staff so we always felt safe to thoroughly enjoy the experience. You cannot top these views of the valley! Take binoculars if you have them and your camera as you'll want to take many photos! Dress for cool weather and don't forget your hat to shield your hair from the hot air! You will receive good instructions for how to be ready for the trip. Champagne and snacks after the flight were a nice bonus. History of ballooning provided by Shane was interesting and appreciated. You do have to climb into and out of the balloon basket, but even with my bum knee, it was not a problem. Transportation to the launch area and back after landing was helpful. Highly recommend this company and experience!

This was my first flight, and it was spectacular. Shane and crew were just great, and it was amazing to learn how a balloon is flown. Shane and crew were very excited about the weather/wind conditions, saying this was a rare opportunity and it would be a really great flight. It was epic. Shane took us low through the hills to get to Lake Pleasant, and then dipped the basket in the water! It was so cool... The AZ skies gave us a beautiful sunset and again it was just a wonderful, wonderful flight. Thank you so much!

What a great experience! We loved it! We went up on a sunrise balloon ride in Chandler AZ and it was so peaceful and relaxing. Both Eugene and Mike were really fun guys, had lots of experience and adventurous stories about ballooning. We met some really great people and the weather was perfect. I would do it again in a heart beat with Aerogelic Ballooning.

Aerogelic Ballooning did not fulfill their obligations, which primarily was to communicate with pre-paid customers to let them know where to go and when. We called them more than 24 hours in advance because we had not received this critical information, but were forced to leave a message. When they finally returned the call, the next day, it was too late to make the flight. The worst part is that the phone clerk tried to blame this on us for not receiving an alleged email. Not only did they refuse to apologize or take any responsibility for their lack of communication, they also refused to reschedule the flight for us. They took the money and then refused to provide any services.

First time in a hot air balloon and I cannot wait to go again! Our "sky pilot" Shane and the crew were stellar!!!!! The adventure was truly exciting and peaceful!

This has so been on my bucket list. I HIGHLY recommend Aerogelic Ballooning. The crew we had made us feel comfortable and welcome. If we wanted to participate in the balloon set up we were allowed to help. The balloon ride was and will be unforgettable. Our pilot took us up into the skies, brought us down close to a mountain to describe the cactus and then back up. The ride lasted more than an hour and was affordable. I'll be going again !! What a great experience.
