Smiely Balloon Arrangment Balloon Type: Latex Balloons. Size: 0.6 Mtr Float Time: Approx 4-6 days Cold air, hot air, high humidity, changing barometric pressure, high altitudes, and moving air from fans and vents will reduce balloon float times. The float times posted on our site are the maximum to be expected.

We guarantee that your balloons will be delivered in perfect condition, but float times will vary. There are no guarantees for float time if balloons are displayed outdoors.
