i am serious sir

and i know it will be by cruse ship . as i know they take a tour from Argentina to antarctic for a week . i have read about it but then corona came i forget . i wish i spent few days on that place .i am not scientist sir .

No friend... no sir... that was long time back.

There are supply ships that leave cape town for supplying various antartica bases. you may want to check on that. From Argentina it is the easiest route. From Cape town, you have to make a stop at Prince Edward Island then shoot to SANAE base. It is a fully equiped base; but SANAE only brings in scientists and meterological study people.

SANAE IV 360 Tour - South African National Antarctic Programme

Take a 360 tour of the SANAE IV station in Antarctica. The 360 tour gives you a real-life look at the inside of the station.

This gives a good view of what it is like; this is the newer base as the older one gave up to the ice buildup.

No lie, I flew on a private jet owned by a Turkish big timer, all the air hostesses were Russian and Lithuanian girls in tiny bikinis. First class is shit in comparison.

Thank you. Would you say difference between first class and business class is very huge?

As it stands we can upgrade one flight to 1st class. I guess its best to upgrade the flight to Buenos Aires to 1st class and the return flight we do normal business class.

No not too much. Business class is good enough if you don't want to waste money.

I usually fly business class and i'm member of the rewards program if sky alliance. Next year november i plan a cruise to antarctica with my girlfriend and i noticed that with my miles i could upgrade to fly first class Lufthansa from Frankfurt to Buenos Aires. Do you think its worth the upgrade?

The big price difference between the two classes definitely not worth the slight difference in service and that's my opinion. Stick with business class. I flew both and even though all my flights are paid by my employer but I still fly business. In fact, if I am not wrong Qatar Airways has eliminated its first class from Doha to US flights. And as much I really hate to say this, but stay away from most US and European air carriers when it comes to flying business or first class.

My 1/2 cent. Take it for what it's worth.

Never flew first class. Business only few times and that was something special for me.

Once upon a time I got a free flight in business, because I was overbooked. A bit bigger seat, and meal, and that's all. This is what people are buying for extra $1000
