The cost for adults is €12, 3-11 years €6.
I can't exactly remember how long it is. Perhaps 10 minutes. The time in the air was sufficient. You could see the Eiffeltower. And a nice birdsview of the parks and the hotels.
Try to schedule this early on in your trip. We went on a Thursday and I can't remember seeing the balloon in operation on Friday or Saturday. When we went there were I think 7 or 8 passengers onboard. The ride before us 6 and the ride after us also about 8. You can just buy the tickets at the booth before going up in the balloon.

If this is something you really want to do and you see it working go on it. DD and I have wanted to do this for a while. When we went last year it was working on our first day but we headed for the parks. We had planned to do it on one of our subsequent days but the weather wasn't good enough for it to operate - too windy!

This year it was working on our first full day and we went on it in the morning. The views are fabulous. If you are a shareholder you get a discount (10% I think) if you show your card.

I would agree that this is a must do. It's absolutely gorgeous and a nice change of pace from the bustle of the main parks. Gives everyone a real breather.
