Tips for FIDAE
Hereí I leave you some tips if you want to attend the editionón 2020 u otra posterior:
I recommend attending the díthe weekdays, since there are fewer people, más important aircraft, shows aún más interesting and the exhibitors give details of their brands which is a plus. Professional entry costs más, But is it worth it.
The cost from Tuesday to Friday for professionals is approximately $43 dóhomes for día.
The weekend the cost is about $17 dóhomes.
To reach, the best way is to do it with the Turbus buses that leave every 5 a 15 minutes from Estación Central, for a value of about $6 dóhomes round trip.
Sunscreen is mandatory.
Jacket in the mañhe, since the event takes place at the entrance to autumnñor in Chile, so the temperature can drop to less than 10 degrees.
The food at FIDAE is más face than outside, obviously, so if you can eat a strong breakfast you will saveáin an area. lunch is unavoidable (unless they bring cookies or small thingsñthose to chop) and it costs approx. $15 dólares up. There are options más cheap, but less fillers.
Between máGet to the fair early, best. Less people, más planes for yourself.
Like every spotter or fanáethics that is respected, always carry a batteryíace of cámara well loaded and extras.
Hydrateón, If you can bring a bottle of water from outside it will beá más cheated.
The baños son púwarlike andán quite clean, but it is always good to use them first thing in the morningía…
to take pictures, the best area is by the áaircraft taxiing area towards the runway, ahí tenderán better visionón of the shows toéprisoners and prior movement of aircraft.
FAITH 2020
The vigévery first editionón of trust 2020 startó and your planningón, that it takes all this time and resources to continue maintaining the status of the main fair in Latin Americaérich and third in the world.
