Fly to Antarctica with Antarctica21
The Antarctica air-cruise model : Antarctica21 is pioneering a new way of traveling to Antarctica, providing immediate access to the White Continent. Before Antarctica21, travelers could only reach the Antarctic Peninsula by a two-day sail through the stormy Drake Passage. Since 2003, their small-group expeditions have offered a more comfortable alternative: a two-hour flight from Punta Arenas, Chile, direct to Antarctica, avoiding the turbulent weather of the Drake Passage and allowing for a quick and complete immersion in the Antarctic adventure. .
Explore Antarctica : Their private yacht-style expedition ships offer direct access along the Antarctic coast, in areas that larger ships cannot reach. Due to the smaller number of travelers, disembarkations are faster and more efficient, allowing time on land to focus on enjoying every moment of this unparalleled travel experience.
