A balloon ride as a thank-you for your seasonal crew

Around Roeselare and the rest of West Flanders, vegetable growing relies every year on a large seasonal crew — often staff from Poland, Romania and other countries, who put in weeks or months of long, physical days during planting and harvest. Many businesses look for a way to acknowledge that at the end of the season, beyond the pay packet: something that's remembered, instead of yet another envelope or another keg of beer.

A balloon ride is that kind of moment. No team-building exercises, no speeches — just quietly drifting above the fields you've worked all season, with a glass of cava at landing. For the whole crew, for a smaller delegation, or for the foremen who stay on year-round.

Whole crew or a small delegation

Spread the full crew across several flights, or invite just the foremen and long-standing seasonal staff — we look at what suits your numbers and budget.

Outside the busy season

Most businesses book this once the harvest season is over and things quieten down. Gift vouchers stay valid for 24 months, so everyone can choose a moment that suits them.

One invoice, arranged for you

We put the vouchers together and invoice your business. All you need to give us is the number of people and the budget.

Frequently asked questions

Our briefing and guidance are given in Dutch, French or English. For a crew that speaks another language, a colleague is welcome to join as an interpreter — we keep the safety instructions deliberately short and visual.

Yes. We put together a gift voucher per employee, valid for 24 months, so everyone can pick a date that suits them — even those who've since moved on to their next season elsewhere.

This page is aimed specifically at seasonal crews in agriculture and horticulture. For an activity with your regular office or team staff, you're also welcome on our team building page.

The gift voucher itself is in Dutch or French. If you'd like to present the flight to your crew in their own language, you can share our Polish-language or Romanian-language page with them.
