FWIW, the taxis outside the airport are quite cheap, we were 5 who split two taxis and paid R$50 per taxi so that turned out R$20 per person, which is great since it's fast and gets you to the hotel door without having to put more thought into when you potentially haven't slept in a long long time. -Jonathan -- ⢀⣴⠾⠻⢶⣦⠀ Jonathan Carter (highvoltage) ⣾⠁⢠⠒⠀⣿⡁ Debian Developer - https://wiki.debian.org/highvoltage ⢿⡄⠘⠷⠚⠋ https://debian.org | https://jonathancarter.org ⠈⠳⣄ Be Bold.

Re: Traveling from Airport to the venue
Hi, I found that getting off at the right place is another challenge. There's no stop indicator in the bus. I took Aeroporto Executivo, bought a round-trip ticket with a help of Google Translate. There's a manned stand in front of the bus stop. You can use credit card (contactless ok) to pay. Their round-trip ticket is valid until July 31. I used AndOsm on the bus to ensure I didn't miss the stop. Their first stop (train station) is actually walkable to the venue. The bus detoured to another hotel nearby. I got off at the last stop (Shopping Estaçáo before heading off to the airport) but I found the bus took too much time driving around the city center. I am at the hotel now!

You can pay the executive airport bus with credit cards: Visa, MasterCard, Elo and Hipercard. And debit cards: Visa and MasterCard Maestro. It's possible to pay with cash but just Real.

The obvious question to ask as someone who does not want to have any cash is: can I pay with credit card (well, debit mastercard)? I prefer to avoid cash as long as it's not massively more expensive or inconvenient. I find it hilarious that their page is only in Portuguese, which is not all that helpful for travellers.

Re: Traveling from Airport to the venue
In my opinion a good option is take the bus "aeroporto executivo", is a line for travelers from airport to especific bus stop in the city. You can take the bus at the airport and arrive at Shopping estação (Estação mall) It is the option Coach on DC19 website https://debconf19.debconf.org/about/venue/ Coach The cost is R$ 15 (about 4 USD). It is a good idea you say to the driver you want to get off at the Shopping Estação bus stop. The campus is one block west of the shopping centre. To check the bus schedule you have to choose "de: Aeroporto Afonso pena" "Para: Shopping Estação" in airport executive website.

Re: Traveling from Airport to the venue
Indeed, I have seen other Taxi apps country-locked like this - Hailo used to be this way in Ireland when I moved here - but when the issue is pointed out to the company involved they will usually open the app to wider installation, especially when they are told "well, all foreigners are forced to use Uber", so perhaps some Brazilian friends could contact the app vendor and point this out so they relax the restriction.

I'm just saying that you can't do that, because you can't get the app, apart from (on Android) fiddling with play store country setting and making sure you don't reach limits for allowed country changes.

Hi, Curitiba airport is not big, and it's very easy walk from the arrival area to take a bus, taxi, 99/uber.

Traveling from Airport to the venue
Hi, it's almost just one week and DebCamp will start. Yeah! Maybe I'm to stupid to find an already published traveling help guideline how people can reach the venue. Please point me to this if this is already existing. Otherwise what are the options to get from the Airport CWB to venue? I assume every attendee should come to the venue first. My Portuguese is (still) horrible. :-) Thanks! -- Regards Carsten Schoenert
