The session will familiarize the guests with the safety protocols to follow throughout the journey.
Mamoon Alshawi emphasizes the paramount importance of attentiveness to the pilot's instructions. The briefing provides crucial information on hand placements before ascending, proper positioning on the balloon's platform, and guidelines for enjoying a walk when the balloon is up in the sky.
