FAI World Hot Air Balloon Ranking List

This is the official page for the FAI World Hot Air Balloon Ranking List. Rankings will be updated every year (in April) and soon after each FAI World Hot Air Balloon Championships and FAI World Air Games. They are based on a combination of rankings from the previous five FAI World Hot Air Balloon Championships and FAI World Air Games plus the country rankings for each National Aero Club (NAC).

These rankings should only be used for information purposes only and should not be used for event selection purposes.

For more information about how these rankings are calculated, please visit the FAI World Hot Air Balloon Ranking List Explained page.
