Explorers Circle
Antarctica is even better the second time
A Special Offer For Returning Guests, From Our President and CEO, John McKeon
A journey to Antarctica is, without a doubt, the trip of a lifetime. But that doesn’t necessarily mean it’s “one and done.” On every voyage, we have several passenger-explorers who are on their second – or even third – voyage with us. Some come back for the sheer love of the place; some return to share the experience with new friends or family members. And all come back knowing that Antarctica is never the same one year – or even one voyage – to the next!
I know the feeling. I’ve been to this mythical place maybe a hundred times myself, and it never fails to take my breath away. I’ve brought quite a few family members along, as well, because words alone just cannot convey what it’s like to be immersed in this wild, untouched continent. I tell them, “You just have to be here.”
If you’ve already traveled with us, let me start by saying thank you. We really appreciate you putting your faith in us, and we welcome you into the Polar Latitudes ever-growing family. As our way of showing our gratitude, you have automatically been enrolled in our loyalty program, which we call the EXPLORERS CIRCLE. Congratulations! Once in the program, you can enjoy great discounts and other incentives to come back again; and the more you travel, the more you save. Check out the details below. And I hope to see you onboard again soon!
