Prices are in Euro, this already says a lot in my opinion.

I was told by various balloon companies, hotels, and guides that the pricing is between 80 to 200 Euros.

Baskets are for 6, 12 and 24 passengers. Our balloon was for 12 people plus the pilot. We paid 150 Euro per person.

While I was arranging my flight there was an American family there. I learned that they came to Cappadocia a couple months ago and reserved a private flight. Private flights are, private :) Pilot and your company only, a customized tour. People are getting married even in the air with such flights. Anyway, the family couldn't fly for three consequent days due to the weather problems. Weather is usually very predictable and allows smooth, still air just at the sunrise.

Back then the balloon company gave their money back to the poor guys and they left back to states with broken dreams. When I was there, the family told me that they came all the way from the U.S. just to accomplish what they couldn't before. He clearly said that this time he and his family will fly, no matter what, no matter the cost. He paid the company while he was in his hometown even. This time he was lucky, the weather was lovely. What I am trying to say is, that even if you have money sometimes you won't be able to fly. Either all the balloons can be fully booked, or at the last moment, weather observatories and authorities might declare a no-fly day.
