Few destinations on Earth awaken such awe and emotion as Antarctica, a land of extremes, purity, and profound silence. Known as the White Continent, it has long been a distant dream for adventurous travelers, often associated with long sea voyages across the unpredictable Drake Passage.
Today, that dream is closer than ever. With DAP Airlines, you can fly to Antarctica from Punta Arenas, Chile, and land on the White Continent in just two hours. This exclusive air-cruise experience allows you to discover one of the most extraordinary and remote places on the planet, a once-in-a-lifetime adventure filled with wonder and emotion.
From the moment your aircraft departs Punta Arenas, anticipation builds. As the first glimmers of endless ice come into view, you’ll know you’ve reached the edge of the world.
Upon arrival in Punta Arenas, your journey includes four nights of accommodation with breakfast, ensuring comfort before and after your expedition. Between 72 and 48 hours before departure, you’ll receive detailed instructions to join the mandatory Antarctic briefing, where you’ll meet fellow travelers and enjoy a welcome cocktail hosted by our expert team.
Attendance at this meeting is required for all passengers, as it provides essential information about safety, weather conditions, and the unique logistics of Antarctic travel.
Your day begins with a transfer from your hotel to Punta Arenas Airport, where you’ll board your DAP flight to King George Island.
Upon arrival, an expert local guide will accompany you through the most remarkable sites of the island, including:
Villa Las Estrellas, the first civilian settlement in Antarctica
The Russian Orthodox Church at Bellingshausen Station
The Chinese Great Wall Station
Scenic viewpoints where you may observe elephant seals and local wildlife
If weather permits, you may also experience a navigation to Collins Glacier, an awe-inspiring encounter with Antarctica’s pristine ice landscapes.
After approximately five hours of exploration (subject to weather conditions), you’ll return to Punta Arenas aboard your DAP flight, concluding an unforgettable day at the end of the world.
All operations and excursions are subject to weather conditions, with final decisions made by the airline’s operations department to ensure passenger safety.
