How old can a child travel to Antarctica? Physical requirements of Antarctic tourism
Antarctic tourism, children's age, generally over 8 years old can participate.
Under special circumstances such as 8 years old, you can apply separately.
① Requirements for children's age:
The restrictions on children in Antarctic tourism mainly come from Antarctic cruise companies. Every company has different requirements. To sum up, most companies have two requirements for children:
1. Be at least 8 years old (some companies require 10 years old).
2./kloc-Children under the age of 0/8 need to be accompanied by their parents during their Antarctic trip.
At the same time, some optional sightseeing activities for children during Antarctic travel are restricted. For example: kayaking, polar camping.
Take the strict quark exploration company as an example. Specific requirements are as follows
1.8 years old refused to participate.
2.8 years old and above, weighing more than 29 kilograms, and height 1.2 meters or more.
3. Parents sign the authorization agreement.
4.8- 16 years old needs to be accompanied by parents all the time.
The requirements of other companies are basically the same, basically they all need to be at least 8 years old and accompanied by an adult. Then parents need to fill out an authorization feedback form. (Except for Quark Adventure, no other companies have any requirements for height and weight. )
But this is not absolute. For example, a Canadian cruise company hosted a family of three in China, and the child was only 4 years old. Under the age of 8, you can apply to the cruise company separately. The cruise company will review whether it agrees or not according to the actual situation.
② Requirements for the age of the elderly:
There is basically no requirement for an upper age limit. As long as physical conditions permit. The oldest person I have ever seen in the Antarctic is an old English gentleman, 82 years old. In fact, most foreign tourists who travel to Antarctica are retired people.
Physical requirements for Antarctic travel;
③ The cruise companies are roughly the same:
1. Just need: travelers have no "life-threatening diseases".
2. If travelers have chronic diseases, they need to take medicine regularly and need a doctor's signature.
Almost all cruise companies need to fill out medical forms. (Feedback medical history)
How to judge whether your body can go to the South Pole in the simplest way?
At present, only one cruise company has given a clear standard about physical condition, that is:
1. Climb 3-4 stairs without help.
2. Be able to get on and off the ship independently.
3. Be able to carry your own luggage.
