Museum was well laid out....
Museum was well laid out. Intro movie was thorough and informative. Displays and descriptions gave you a good sense of what the passengers went through.

A beautiful and humbling experience
An incredibly moving and beautiful experience. To see items such as the expeditionaries' makeshift mittens, Roy Harley's radio, Coco Nicolich's letters, and photos of Liliana Methol with her children is an incredibly humbling experience that drives home just how brave, intelligent, thoughtful and loving the passengers of Flight 571 were. I highly recommend this museum to everyone traveling through Montevideo.

Interesting and hard hitting museum
Unique subject matter and hard hitting at times, but ultimately worth visiting. A must see when visiting Montevideo.

Great Job with a Difficult Subject
This was a very informative museum that covered every possible aspect of the tragedy and subsequent survival of 16 of the original 40 persons on that fateful flight. They even offer a simulator so you can experience the frigid temperatures that they endured for 72 days. Very moving
