Scenic Eclipse’s Antarctica Expands 2023-24 Program

Scenic Eclipse’s Antarctica program has been expanded with three additional trips for 2023-24.

A 12-day Antarctica Insights: Fly & Cruise Voyage, an 11-day Wild Antarctica, Fly the Drake itinerary, and a 19-day Beyond the Antarctic Circle voyage are among the new sailings.

The Antarctica Insights trip will be the ship’s first fly-cruise experience. Passengers will fly to King George Island and board the ship via the Drake Passage. Prices start at £14,485 for the 17th December departure.

Passengers on Wild Antarctica, Fly the Drake voyage will fly to and from King George Island, bypassing the Drake Passage entirely. Prices for the cruise on 24th December begin at £13,450.

Four nights at the Antarctic Circle are included in the 19-day Beyond the Antarctic Circle tour. The itinerary’s prices start at £15,850 and depart on 8th February 2024.

Three days in the Antarctic Circle is one of the line’s other similar itineraries.

Passengers who pay for their cruise in full 12 months before departure can save up to 20% on the 2023-24 Antarctica program.

Scenic will run six Antarctica sailings this winter, beginning 8th January 2022.

Since 17th July 2021, the Scenic Eclipse has been sailing chartered cruises in Saudi seas.

Scenic Discovery Yachts’ expedition operations manager, Jason Flesher, said: “We’ve been planning this season for months and we can’t wait to head back to the White Continent for a season.

“Thanks to the size and capabilities of Scenic Eclipse, we’ve been able to secure exclusive landings in Margarite Bay, a southern destination that very few other ships visit.”
