Balloons are kept flat on the ground before they start flying. Then, hot air is supplied with a tube to ventilate and this hot air source is used as needed throughout the journey. Balloons that start to inflate come to an upright position, but they do not rise because they are tied to the ground. After the passengers are taken to the balloon, the ties are loosened and the balloons begin to rise. This takes about 15 minutes.
