A gondola for a hot air balloon utilizes a rigid carriage with external and internal walls forming an enclosure with a central opening sized for accommodation of crew members. A platform extends across and closes a bottom of the central opening. The external and internal walls are spaced and form an internal and integral reservoir for the carriage for storage of fuel for powering the hot air balloon. In one embodiment, a crew module accompanies the carriage, and the carriage is arranged for jetisoning in emergencies.
