See Antarctica by air on a 12-hour non-stop flight

Click on a label to read posts from that part of the world.

I recently made a post about how I have traveled to the top of the world and the bottom. Which, I have been fortunate to do.

I have traveled to Antarctica before and touched the continent. Would I do this flight, yes. I, however, do not desire to travel on New Years, but am going to research other posibilities.

I paraphrase Robert Louis Stephens who said, "I travel for travels sake. The great love afair is to move."

Nick, you are right. They have done this kind of trip for several years on and off.

The 12 hour flight in First Class would be fine. What concerns me is the fact that I would have to travel from New York to Sydney for this fun expedition. That part of the trip would make the 12 hour flight seem like a puddle jumper or should I say continent jumper.
