“We are world-renowned. Thanks to ourexpertise, we are able to install stationary balloons, hot air balloons and outdoors activities. We are at the Authorities'disposal and seeking for investors in Thailand and its bordering countries to introduce this new original concept.
Thailanddisplaysmarvellous regions that can be discovered from above. Our tethered balloon offers everyone the possibility to admire them! We see a lot of opportunities for the tourism market.
We invite you to contact us and discover our new concept in detail. It would also be our pleasure to visit your location, evaluate its potential and give you our opinion and suggestions”, declares Mr. Jean-Christophe BRASSART, CEO at Planete Balloon.
The tethered balloon is an interesting attraction because it is easy to install andthe return on investment is quickly reached. Moreover, it does not need any specific authorization and it is a source of local job creation (more than 12 positions in the HuaHin project).
The installation and training are provided by PlaneteBallloon.
Besides,the captive balloon is an excellent communication tool. Visible for kilometresaround, its giant billboard is a great advantage for the sponsors!
FLYOVERGREEN,a new concept for the golf courses:
Taking into account the quality of the courses and the great enthusiasm for golf over the Asian continent, Planete Balloon has conceptualized a derivate concept: FLYOVERGREEN.
The idea lies in installing a tethered helium balloon at the heart of a course or close to it to assure: an aerial view of thecourse — your sponsors‘ promotion — your events‘advertisement.
Quality and security await you
Planete Balloon gives priority to its security, reflected either in the choice of materials and in the crew training.
Namely:
Helium is a neutral gas - noninflammable — nonpolluting
Its winch is a “Marine” one, able to pull more than 10 times the maximal capacity of the balloon!
Planete Balloon carries out its flights within a large security margin, well below the usage limits of the balloon.
It trains crews at each Manoeuvre stage until they acquire a complete autonomy.
