Navigator Mission

Creating the world premiere ballooning event with service, dedication, kindness, and teamwork.

Navigators!

To Navigate is to direct, guide, or manage a traveler on its course. A Navigator is a person who navigates. The word navigator embodies the role we expect you to play, for our guests, pilots, crew, and even fellow navigators and staff, -- offering guidance, showing them the way, and confidently leading them to everything they need to have an outstanding experience. We recognize and honor that you are volunteering your time, effort, and skills; we hope that you will wear the Navigator title proudly and show the world that AIBF Navigators are as world-class as the event.
