El señor que nos atendió en el counter de El Calafate para hacer el check-in emitió un comentario xenófobo, totalmente fuera de lugar e irrelevante para la situación.
We weren't informed that we needed to complete a Chile customs form on our cell until we tried to get on the bus. We had to go back into the bus station to access wifi to download an app, but my Canada phone wouldn't download the app. No staff were available to help, so another traveller kindly downloaded everything on her phone, entered the data & emailed it to us. We almost missed the bus.
Much appreciated if we were told to check in and fill-in custom form in advance.
