Safety is always the number on priority in Antarctica. Your expedition team has access to world-class weather tracking systems to understand the wind speed, temperature, and forecast for each potential landing site. If your expedition leader deems it unsafe, a landing might be cancelled or ended earlier than planned. Or, the ship may reposition to another nearby landing site where there is less wind, for example, making it safer to land. While most ships aim for two landings per day, this is always subject to weather and sea conditions.
