Windpassenger’s Beginnings
It all started in 1978, when Carlos Manuel Serra dos Santos fell in love the first time he saw a hot air balloon in the city of Utrecht (Netherlands).
Until 1994 he accompanied Dutch and Spanish teams, conducting flights in Holland (Utrecht), Portugal (Azores, Madeira), France (Limoge, Pau), Switzerland (Basel), Spain (Ponteceso, Coruña, Ponferrada, Logroño, Madrid), United Arab Emirates (Abu Dhabi, Dubai) and Morocco (Ourzazate, Marrakech).
For Portugal, the flying began in 1987 with a Fiat balloon in the Portugal Rally and in 1988/89 with a Fnac balloon. In 2006, Carlos Manuel Serra dos Santos recorded Portugal’s oldest record of hot air balloons with over 25 years of experience and more than 2500 flight hours.
In 2004, the passion passed on to Guido van der Velden dos Santos, who founded Windpassenger. It was dedicated solely to flying passengers, a dream inherited from his father. The brand is now managed by Wind Passengers, an ecotourism company dedicated to passenger transport in hot air balloons, which makes safety its priority.
