Avian Flu has been observed in some locations in the Antarctic Peninsula. We are continuing our operations in line with guidance from the relevant authorities.  The 24/25 season will commence with all sites opened within the Antarctic Peninsula. If signs of HPAI are observed, sites may be closed preventively and will continue to be assessed throughout the season. As in South Georgia, our onboard protocols have been reinforced, ensuring that stringent measures are in place to safeguard our passengers, wildlife, and the local environment, including: Prior to landings, our onboard experts will thoroughly inspect potential landing sites and determine any risks. Onboard biosecurity measures will be enhanced before arrival to Antarctica and between landings It is essential that expeditioners refrain from sitting, kneeling or laying down, or placing equipment on the ground or snow, when on shore excursions.  We will not be visiting research stations
