No matter. The idea is worthy enough of a necro. Although that post did not add much to the discussion...
The idea is balanced, although I think the numerous parts is too much. Using the latest in rope manufacture and leatherworking, I propose you craft it with leads instead of rope and just have the leather balloon be crafting like a chest with the bottom centre block empty.
Hmm. This is available in Mods and even plugins. I personally think we should keep it that way. Adding air travel to vanilla minecraft would change the game too much.
This seems like a good idea. The only suggestion I have is that, instead of taking things from a player's inventory, why not give it the ability to carry it's own fuel? In other words, players can fill the balloon up with a certain amount of coal and water before boarding.
Wind moves different directions at different altitudes. Perhaps this could be implemented in Minecraft? That way north isn't your only option. This is also how real life balloons move around.
Ever played the Aurora Wager? That's how I'd like to fly a balloon ingame.

Curse Premium'Oh, this is OP. Better give make it need a diamond block or two then!'
A better idea would just make it require quite a lot of fuel to run.
How so? Personally I think hot air balloons would be a great addition, and it fits within the theme of Minecraft.
