In 2024, over 120,000 tourists visited Antarctica, primarily using the challenging Drake Passage. The new itineraries by National Geographic-Lindblad Expeditions now enable travelers to bypass this arduous sea route entirely.
Sven-Olof Lindblad stated, 'We have 11 different ways you can travel in Antarctica with us - different lengths, different combinations of places... some as short as a week.' This flexibility caters to various traveler preferences.
With the introductions of the Antarctica Direct: Fly the Drake Passage expeditions, travelers can avoid the seasickness and time-consuming nature of the traditional route which can take up to two days.
Travel options on these new cruises provide a quicker way to experience Antarctica, maximizing time on the continent itself, thus appealing to those with limited durations.
