AE Expeditions has announced a significant update to its Antarctica booking policy, now enabling travel advisors to price voyages in six currencies: USD, CAD, EUR, GBP, AUD, and NZD.
*All details correct at time of publish (04 August 2025)
This enhancement is designed to bring greater price certainty, booking flexibility, and sales confidence to trade partners and their clients around the world.
Historically priced in USD, Antarctica voyages can now be sold in local currencies based on the agency’s registered location (for trade bookings) or the passenger’s country of residence (for direct bookings).
This shift allows the exchange rate to be locked in at the time of booking for both the deposit and final payment, avoiding currency fluctuations and giving clients full visibility on their total trip cost from day one.
David Tanguay, Global Head of Sales at AE Expeditions, said:
“We’re committed to making it easier and more rewarding for our trade partners to sell our Antarctica programme.
“This change empowers agents to offer pricing consistency, greater transparency, and a more seamless booking experience for their clients.”
Key benefits for travel advisors include:
- Local currency pricing now available in USD, CAD, EUR, GBP, AUD, and NZD
- Exchange rate locked in at the time of booking for both deposit and final payment
- No surprises for clients – pricing consistency from start to finish
- Available for both direct and trade bookings, based on location
- Improved global alignment for trade partners and clients in multiple markets
This update reflects AE Expeditions’ ongoing commitment to supporting the trade community with tools and policies that streamline the booking process and build traveller trust.
