Why does this page have no prices?
Because we have not collected them. The site is published as a plan so the shape of the dataset can be reviewed before any figure appears. Every page is noindex until its rows exist.
Hot-air balloon flights over Teotihuacán, compared by operator
Two operators fly the pyramids most mornings and a dozen resellers sell their seats. The table will separate who flies the balloon from who sold you the ticket.
No Teotihuacán operator has been checked yet. This page carries no price, no basket size and no rating.
Each row will name both the operator that flies the balloon and the storefront that sold the seat, because at this site they are usually not the same company.
Searching for a Teotihuacán balloon flight in Spanish returns operators and resellers, and almost nothing that sets them side by side. Many of the listings that look like different companies are the same two balloons sold through different storefronts, at different prices, with different cancellation rules.
The table will name the operator that actually flies each basket, and then list every storefront selling it with the price each one charges on the day we read it.

Questions
Why does the reseller matter?
Because the refund rule is the reseller’s, not the balloon operator’s. Two seats in the same basket can have completely different terms if a flight is scrubbed for wind.
Do you earn money from the links?
We may, once a programme is live. No booking link on this site is live today, and no programme we join changes which operators are listed or how they are ordered.
