点评:BEWARE: FALSE ADVERTISING
At 10:21 am on Jan 17, 2026, the company had an advertised price of $188 per person for a hot air balloon ride on Feb 16, 2026. I accepted the offer for four people and input my credit card. The price plus 15% gratuity and a 6% service charge came to a total of $916.69.
At 12:52 pm on Jan 17, 2026, I received an email from the company saying, " We have a third-party vendor Error that is giving the wrong price on the 15 and 16 of February. It ties direct and they have had some problems. The 16th is $248 but you can book on-line the 17th at $178."
Rather than honor the advertised price, they told me that I have to pay $60 more per person, which amounts to an additional $240 total markup over the advertised selling price that I responded to on their website.
With the increased price, this would also result in an additional $36 for gratuity and $14.40 for a service charge...bringing the final total to $290.40 above the value I originally reserved on their website.
I also spoke to them on the phone, with the results being them again blaming "3rd parties" and they refused to honor the original price.

2026年1月17日上午10:21,该公司广告显示2026年2月16日的热气球之旅价格为每人188美元。我接受了四人同行的报价并输入了我的信用卡信息。加上15%的小费和6%的服务费,总价为916.69美元。
2026年1月17日下午12:52,我收到该公司的一封电子邮件,邮件中写道:“由于第三方供应商系统错误,2月15日和16日的价格显示错误。这是直接预订系统的问题。16日的价格为248美元,但您可以在线预订17日,价格为178美元。”
他们没有按广告价格收费,而是告诉我每人要加收 60 美元,总共比我在他们网站上预订的价格高出 240 美元。
加上涨价后的 36 美元小费和 14.40 美元服务费,最终总价比我在他们网站上预订的价格高出 290.40 美元。
我还打电话给他们,结果他们再次把责任推给“第三方”,并拒绝按原价收费。
