Andre has flown in Balloon Festivals all over the country, and he has piloted balloons in many of the states, including New Mexico, Alaska, Montana, New York, North Carolina, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Vermont, Maine, and New Jersey. He has even flown in parts of Canada, like Quebec, Ottawa, and New Brunswick. Andre has also taken his balloon overseas to fly at a balloon rally in France. He has also traveled south of the border and flown in Mexico.
