For more than four decades, Rainbow Ryders has been ensuring the best bucket list item. Our journey expanded to Colorado Springs in 2015, allowing us the opportunity to soar above the stunning landscapes of Colorado. We have had the privilege to explore the skies of the Springs as well as the official ride operator for the biggest balloon festival in Colorado Springs, Labor Day Lift Off. We have proudly flown in Colorado Spring with over 8,000 smiling passengers!
While Colorado Springs operates seasonally, our commitment to safety remains our top priority. Our highly skilled pilots have a collective flight time exceeding 100,000 hours and hold FAA commercial pilot’s licenses, complemented by updated second-class medical certificates. They are trained to be able to monitor weather conditions to ensure a safe yet memorable experience. Rainbow Ryder’s pilots are also required to attend multiple safety seminars, annual flight reviews and undergo random drug and alcohol testing.
Our top-tier equipment undergoes regular inspections through an FAA certified repair station, as well as thorough inspections both before and after each flight!
We hope you join us for this adventure in the sky as we travel over renowned landscapes and create the best memories. Don’t miss out on the chance to check off a bucket list item in one of the nation’s adventure capitals! Join Rainbow Ryders for an experience like no other!
