The balloon of Chantilly seen by Mr Pierre de Crepy, Director of Domaine de Chantilly :

"In terms of image, we have, thanks to you, benefited from numerous results from the press, radio and television. The sympathetic aspect of the balloon has also made a strong impression on the inhabitants of Chantilly and its surroundings.

From an economic point of view, at the time the majority of other tourist sites in France were in decline in 1994, the Domaine de Chantilly (Chateau and park), benefited from an increase in attendance of more than 50,000 people, a particularly appreciable increase was in regard to the park (+58 % during the months the balloon was operational)."
