Some of our clients recently returned from Antarctica. They travelled on Australia day. They boarded their charter Qantas flight, just for WA passengers, around 8am and flew to the white continent. The pilot flew the Dreamliner 787 nice and low over the ice and glaciers traversing for about four hours before returning to Perth at about 9pm. The views were incredible.
The pilot has just sent us the flight path from this day trip.
