Answers to Common RIAT Questions


I don't have a car, how can I get to RIAT?

There are shuttle buses from Swindon Bus Station to RIAT on the Saturday and Sunday which
will use an express route and get you to the air show in 40 minutes.

If you're arriving earlier than Saturday you'll have to use a combination of local buses and walking
or get a taxi from Swindon.



Where's the best place to get photos of the aircraft from?

On the arrivals days it has to be the park and view areas, choosing which one carefully and get there early,
however you'll have a very long day seeing the aircraft land close up.

On the show days again arrive early and get a place on the crowd line.



I have a question about RIAT that I can't find the answer to anywhere, what should I do?
