Getting there:
Please note - International flights can be booked beginning in late February/early March.
Plan to arrive in Ushuaia (USH) on Sunday, January 20 from Buenos Aires, either the international airport (EZE) if you are connecting straight through, or the domestic city airport (AEP). Buenos Aires is easily, if not exactly swiftly, accessible from many North American and European gateways. If you can, take a few days and join us in the "Paris of South America" for a leisurely tour.
On Saturday, February 9, you'll return by plane from Stanley (Falkland
Islands) to Punta Arenas, Chile. It is possible to book your onward flight to Santiago (SCL)
on the scheduled LATAM Airlines service on the same day.
This flight (Punta Arenas to Santiago) is the continuation of your
flight which originates in Stanley. All guests must disembark
the aircraft in Punta Arenas to clear Chilean immigration. Those
continuing to Santiago will wait in the departure lounge and reboard
the flight after a short period. Many return flights home depart that night.
Deposit: 20% by February 28; interim deposit of $20% due May 21, 2018;
final payment due August 21, 2018. We are happy to arrange a monthly payment schedule between February and August.
