Chalets

NBAA categorizes chalets into three different classes.

  • Class 1 – Original Aircraft Manufacturers (OAMs)
  • Class 2 – Special Aircraft modifications, upgrades, charter or timeshare/membership
  • Class 3 – Used Aircraft Exhibits

Review the eligibility requirements and pricing rules for each class below.

Class 1 – Original Aircraft Manufacturers (OAMs)

OAMs are eligible for any size chalet. To be eligible for the “With Indoor Space” price, OAMs must occupy a minimum indoor space based on the size of the chalet. OAMs are eligible for up to 2,000 square feet of complimentary indoor exhibit space.

Chalets up to 2,500 square feet – $11.65 per square foot. Chalets 2,500 square feet or less are not required to have an indoor exhibit space.

Chalets between 2,500 and 4,000 square feet – $11.65 per square foot when also booking a minimum of 600 square feet of indoor exhibit space; $34.95 per square foot if no indoor space, or less than the minimum, is reserved.

Chalets over 4,000 square feet – $11.65 per square foot when also booking a minimum of 1,200 square feet of indoor exhibit space; $34.95 per square foot if no indoor space, or less than the minimum, is reserved.

Class 2 – Special Aircraft modifications, upgrades, charter or timeshare/membership

Exhibitors showcasing aircraft with modifications etc. or charter or timeshares etc. are limited to chalets up to 1,750 square feet.

Additionally, Class 2 exhibitors must occupy an indoor exhibit space of at least 1 square foot of indoor space for each 25 square feet of outdoor ramp space.

In cases where the ratio requires a space slightly larger than a common indoor exhibit size, NBAA will round down to the nearest common exhibit size. For outdoor exhibits smaller than 2,500 square feet, the minimum indoor booth size is 100 square feet.

Class 3 – Used Aircraft Exhibits

Aircraft dealers, brokers and individual companies selling used aircraft are limited to chalets up to 1,750 square feet.

The fee for chalet space is $11.65 per square foot. Class 3 exhibitors are not required to have an indoor exhibit space to receive the “with indoor space” pricing.

NOTE: Frame tents 400 square feet and smaller may be used on the ramp at no additional charge, but must fit fully within reserved exhibit space. Tents requiring early setup, regardless of size, will be considered chalets and will be charged at the chalet space rate.

Aircraft mock-ups are only permitted on the aircraft display if the exhibitor has at least one real aircraft on display. Mockups must be approved by show management by submission of a space layout plan.

Chalet Space Calculations

For the purposes of calculating chalet space, NBAA defines any chalet as: a tent, structure, or vehicle used for hospitality or private meeting space that is greater than 400 square feet of occupied or covered space.

Exhibitors should consider the following conditions when planning their outdoor space:

  • Any outdoor raised deck that is greater than three inches high (including any railing) shall have its overall area added to the chalet space calculation.
  • Any RV or trailer with a retractable awning shall add the size of the awning to the chalet space calculation.
  • Any RV or trailer with a slide-out options shall add the depth of the slide out to the chalet space calculation. In some situations, tents or structures smaller than 400 sq. ft are considered chalets.
    Situations may include but are not limited to, tents with hard walls and doors, tents that require early setup times (prior to aircraft arrivals), the use of two smaller tents to create one larger tent greater than 400 sq. ft.

Many chalet options use tent structures that are sized using metric measurements. To simplify the application process, NBAA uses the following standard conversion rates for all metric tent structures.

CHALET METRIC DIMENSIONS NBAA’S STANDARD CONVERSION SIZE
10 meters 33 ft
15 meters 50 ft
20 meters 66 ft
25 meters 82 ft
30 meters 99 ft
35 meters 115 ft
40 meters 131 ft
45 meters 148 ft
50 meters 164 ft
