When ROBINSON NOVA rises into the sky, a holiday becomes an unforgettable experience. Club holiday provider ROBINSON is expanding its portfolio of experiences with a unique highlight, allowing guests to take to the skies in its own hot-air balloon from summer 2026. The new event ROBINSON NOVA: TOUCH THE SKY launches at the end of June in four selected clubs in Germany and Austria, offering guests a unique perspective on the natural landscapes surrounding the resorts.
ROBINSON NOVA is more than just a balloon flight. The approximately four-hour experience begins on the ground, where guests help the crew prepare the balloon for take-off and witness the inflation process up close. After around 1.5 hours in the air above stunning landscapes, the experience concludes with a traditional ballooning ceremony, including a certificate and return transfer to the club.
“ROBINSON NOVA creates moments that stay with our guests long after their holiday has ended,” says Bernd Mäser, Managing Director of ROBINSON. “Our aim is to offer special holiday experiences that enrich a stay at our clubs in a truly unique way.”
During its premiere season in 2026, ROBINSON NOVA will operate at the following locations:
Flights take off near the respective club, with landing locations depending on wind conditions. A support vehicle ensures comfortable transport back to the club.
ROBINSON NOVA can be booked for €199 per person, with a maximum of six participants per flight. The experience is available exclusively to club guests. Guests planning a proposal at altitude or wishing to enjoy the flight privately with friends can also book the entire balloon. Individual packages can be requested via email at events@robinson.com.
ROBINSON NOVA is piloted by Lukas Wimmer, an experienced hot-air balloon pilot from the Balloon Harbour in Bad Griesbach with around 1,000 flight hours and international expertise. With the highest standards of safety and precision, he ensures a smooth and memorable experience. Balloon flights are weather-dependent and operate only under suitable conditions.
The blue-and-white balloon in the distinctive ROBINSON design is currently in production. Flights can now be booked via the ROBINSON website.
