On a shared flight you fly with other passengers, while on a private flight the basket is just for the two of you. Either way, you take off at dawn and spend about 45 minutes in the air.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At Ruta M\u00e1gica, the shared flight with breakfast costs $2,490 MXN per person, and the private flight for two costs $8,990 MXN per couple. The right choice depends on your budget, the occasion and how much privacy you want.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Shared vs private hot air balloon ride: key differences<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Basket: on a shared flight you fly with other passengers; on a private flight, it\u2019s just the two of you.<\/li>\n\n<li>Price: $2,490 MXN per person for shared and $8,990 MXN per couple for private.<\/li>\n\n<li>Atmosphere: shared is more social; private is more intimate and quiet.<\/li>\n\n<li>Schedule: both take off at dawn, with a reference check-in time of 5:30 a.m.<\/li>\n\n<li>Route: in both cases it depends on the wind, and the pilot has the final say.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Per person, the private flight works out to $4,495 MXN, compared with $2,490 MXN for the shared flight. As a couple, you pay $4,010 MXN more than for two shared seats, in exchange for having the basket to yourselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The shared flight: what\u2019s included and who it suits<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The shared flight with breakfast includes a welcome coffee break, a toast with wine (juice for kids), a personalized flight certificate, travel insurance, a buffet breakfast and parking at the balloon port. It also includes a banner with the message of your choice, such as happy birthday, happy anniversary or a proposal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s a good fit for:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Solo travelers or groups of friends who want the experience on a more accessible budget.<\/li>\n\n<li>Families with kids 4 and older flying with a parent or guardian; if a child is under 1.20 m tall, ask first.<\/li>\n\n<li>Anyone celebrating something who wants the included banner and a social atmosphere.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For birthdays, there\u2019s also the birthday balloon flight, on sale at $2,300 MXN per person (was $2,700 MXN).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons rmh-guia-cta is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/rutamagica.com.mx\/en\/product\/vuelo-compartido-en-globo-teotihuacan\/\">See the shared flight<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The private flight for two: when it\u2019s worth it<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The private flight for two costs $8,990 MXN and comes with a private basket for the two of you. It works especially well for anniversaries, marriage proposals or any celebration where you want the moment to yourselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you\u2019re planning a proposal, sort out the details before booking and ask what can be arranged for the moment. With round-trip transportation from a central area of Mexico City, the private flight for two is $10,590 MXN per couple.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons rmh-guia-cta is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/rutamagica.com.mx\/en\/product\/vuelo-privado-pareja\/\">See the private flight for two<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Which one fits your occasion?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Anniversary or proposal: the private flight, so the basket is yours alone.<\/li>\n\n<li>Birthday: the birthday flight or the shared flight, which includes a banner with your message.<\/li>\n\n<li>Family or friends: the shared flight, priced per person.<\/li>\n\n<li>First flight on a tighter budget: the shared flight, breakfast included.<\/li>\n\n<li>No car in Mexico City: any of the packages with round-trip transportation.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you also want a guided visit to the pyramids, there\u2019s a flight, breakfast and 1.5-hour Essential tour package from Mexico City. It costs $4,090 MXN per person with a Spanish-speaking guide or $4,290 MXN with an English-speaking guide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons rmh-guia-cta is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/wa.me\/525591472788\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ask on WhatsApp<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What applies to both flights<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With either option, site admission isn\u2019t included, and the route depends on the wind, so flying over a specific pyramid can\u2019t be guaranteed. Children under 4, pregnant women and anyone who is intoxicated can\u2019t fly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There\u2019s no weight fee up to 100 kg; from 101 to 140 kg it\u2019s $30 MXN per extra kilo. Book at least 3 days ahead and bring an official ID, which works as your boarding pass.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"rmh-guia-rel wp-block-paragraph\"><span>Read next:<\/span> <a href=\"https:\/\/rutamagica.com.mx\/en\/cuanto-cuesta-volar-en-globo-en-teotihuacan\/\">Teotihuacan Hot Air Balloon Price in 2026: What You\u2019ll Pay<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"rmh-guia-rel wp-block-paragraph\"><span>Read next:<\/span> <a href=\"https:\/\/rutamagica.com.mx\/en\/que-llevar-a-un-vuelo-en-globo\/\">What to Wear on a Hot Air Balloon Ride in Teotihuacan<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Frequently asked questions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What\u2019s the price difference between a shared and a private flight?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The shared flight is $2,490 MXN per person and the private flight for two is $8,990 MXN per couple.
