Please note: Every effort will be made to keep to the scheduled departure and return date, but all flights are subject to weather, aircraft serviceability and local conditions. Days of delay are the norm for Antarctic flights and you should not plan anything important for a minimum of two weeks after your expected return. Similarily, your anticipated stay in the Antarctic could actually be shortened due to flight re-scheduling.
