Arrival & Departure

For Air-Cruises starting in Punta Arenas, arrival on Day 1 of the itinerary must be no later than 2 PM. Travelers who miss the arrival deadline will be considered “no-show”. Remember that scheduling tight connections is never wise when traveling to remote places. Protect your travel investment by building some buffer in your travel plans in case of problems with luggage delivery, flight delays etc. In case your flight into Punta Arenas is delayed for reasons beyond your control, Antarctica21 will do everything possible to accommodate your late arrival. However, Antarctica21 cannot assume any responsibility for any resulting complications, including your inability to join the expedition. For Antarctica Express Air-Cruises, boarding in Ushuaia is between 3 PM and 4 PM. At 4 PM boarding will close.

Itinerary

Every effort will be made to adhere to the planned program. However, with this type of adventurous travel to Antarctica, changes to the itinerary may occur due to severe and unpredictable weather. We need to emphasize the fact that weather conditions are unpredictable and that safety is always the paramount concern on any Antarctic voyage. For this reason Antarctica21 reserves the right to change the itinerary described due to weather conditions or other factors beyond Antarctica21’s control without consulting the participants.

Baggage Allowance

The maximum weight allowed on the flights to and from Antarctica is 25 kg (55 lbs) per person, including hand luggage, with each item not exceeding 20 kg (44 lbs). For Classic Antarctica and Polar Circle Air-Cruises, excess luggage will be kept in custody in Punta Arenas and returned to travelers after their time in Antarctica. The baggage weight limit is a technical requirement imposed by the flight operation. Unfortunately, it is not possible to purchase an extra allowance.
