Crossing South America: Christmas Edition – 2020
« on: December 13, 2020, 01:13:06 PM »


Christmas is here, and right after you get to celebrate it with your friends and family (virtually, we recommend), VATSUR and VATSIM Brasil invite you to come and celebrate with us too, while we provide air traffic control all over South America to make your journey with us one of the best flights of the Holiday season!

VATSUR and VATSIM Brasil are excited to invite you to the first edition of "Crossing South America: Christmas Edition", an event where you will actually be able to Cross South America, and go over the Andes and the Amazonia, while enjoying our professional air traffic control all over your route, going from the North to the South of this big piece of land.

Departures will start at 1400z (SPJC departures start at 1530z), and we will be departing aircraft for a full three hours, to the best of our airports' capacities.

We are going to be featuring four departure and four arrival airports, so you get to choose the one you prefer the most!

Featured Airports

Departure Airports:
•   Simon Bolivar International Airport – SVMI.
•   El Dorado International Airport – SKBO.
•   Mariscal Sucre International Airport – SEQM.
•   Jorge Chavez International Airport – SPJC. (Departures from SPJC will start 1 hour and 30 minutes later.)

Arrival Airports:
•   Arturo Merino Benitez International Airport – SCEL.
•   Ingeniero Aeronáutico Ambrosio L.V. Taravella International Airport – SACO.
•   General Cesareo L. Berisso International Airport – SUMU.
•   Salgado Filho International Airport – SBPA.

Bookings can be found at: https://vatsur.realops.simgoodies.app/events/crossing-south-america, we have over 290 slots available to be booked. But even so, bringing some extra fuel, just in case, can't hurt.

Note: The booking system will not assign a callsign, you are free to fly with any callsign you want. The routes will be posted through the forums and social media on the days before the event.

And do not forget to keep an eye on our social media, so you do not miss any news! Also, during the event, we will be receiving screenshots and sharing them on our social media.
