Itinerary
Your Antarctica flight will depart and return to the Qantas Domestic Terminal at Sydney/Melbourne/Perth/Brisbane Airport. Check in is at least 1 hour prior to the departure of your flight. Whilst we will be over the Antarctica Treaty area for around 4 hours, approximately 3 – 4 hours will be spent flying over the Antarctic continent.
In planning our route, considerable time is taken to select the most spectacular area of Antarctica within aircraft’s range. The selected area will be chosen from 19 different flight plans, taking into account:
– Maximum viewing potential from both sides of the aircraft
– Maximum penetration over Antarctica
– Maximum variety in land mass scenery, including high mountains, glaciers, ice plateau and coastline
– The best possibility for viewing should weather conditions be adverse.
