Icelandair Sends A Boeing 767 To Antarctica Advertisement: Icelandair is sending one of its Boeing 767 aircraft to Antarctica. Before flying down to Troll Research Station on the Earth’s southernmost continent, the aircraft will stop in Cape Town, South Africa. It comes weeks after Lufthansa’s longest flight yet to get German researchers to the South Pole. Icelandair is flying one of its Boeing 767s to Antarctica via South Africa.

Some flights have been for repatriations, some for cargo, and some to avoid a stopover elsewhere. It even led to the record for the longest domestic flight being broken, just to be broken again. Earlier in February, Lufthansa flew to the Falkland Islands to get German researchers to Antarctica on a boat.
