How was Spotter Day born?

On August 6, 2016, in Nuevo Pudahuel we defined a historic moment in the Arturo Merino Benítez airport thanks to our work with the civil aviation authority (DGAC), granting access to a group of 40 spotters to an area habilitated by the civil aviation authority next to the runway for a day of photography, thus the first Spotter Day of the AMB airport was born.

During this activity we not only offered the fans new locations for their hobby, but we also strengthened ties with this group by offering a safe environment for the activity without any risk to airside operations. Today, spotters are recognized as a contribution at Santiago airport. As a result of the success of the activity, Nuevo Pudahuel celebrates Spotter Day twice a year.
