Landmarks potentially visited on Antarctic Sail & Fly Combination

NOTE: While choosing to fly to/from Antarctica is the most expedient option, it's also more weather dependent than travelling by ship across the Drake Passage. Charter flights to/from Antarctica operate on a very flexible schedule to accommodate the changeable weather conditions. As a result, flight timings may be brought forward or delayed to ensure safe operating conditions. To discuss in more detail, please get in touch. This itinerary is for guidance only, as each voyage will vary depending on ice and weather conditions as well as taking advantage of impromptu wildlife opportunities.

10/10 - We wanted to experience the Drake Passage (which was benign!) but didn't particularly want to spend another 2 days doing it again so this combination worked perfectly.

Robert Bown - UK

The expedition team were what made the trip so fantastic. They were friendly and knowledgeable. They sat with us at lunch and dinner to get to know better. They did a great job.
