Norse Atlantic Airways achieves a landmark Antarctic mission with Boeing 787 Dreamliner

At precisely 10:55 local time, the Dreamliner touched down carrying 10.5 tons of research equipment and scientists.

Following the same Oslo-Cape Town-Troll Airfield route as last year, the aircraft demonstrated its unparalleled efficiency and capability.

The journey included a critical stop in Cape Town, South Africa, before continuing to Antarctica.
