TCS World Travel Launches Seven Continents by Private Jet Expedition

TCS World Travel Launches Seven Continents by Private Jet Expedition

TCS World Travel, the world’s most awarded and experienced private jet expedition company, has unveiled its most ambitious itinerary to date: Seven Continents by Private Jet, the ultimate around the world journey. This unprecedented 29-day itinerary will take guests on an incredible adventure to twelve iconic destinations across all seven continents. Travelers will embark on an expeditionary day trip to Antarctica, take an immersive end-to-end deep dive across Africa, and ring in the New Year on Easter Island, among other standout moments on this global journey.

“Visiting all seven continents in a single journey has long been a dream for TCS World Travel, and now it’s a reality,” said Shelley Cline, President of TCS World Travel. “We pioneered the flagship Around the World journey over 30 years ago, and this new expedition takes experiential travel to extraordinary new heights. Seven Continents is the pinnacle of global adventure – a bucket list experience delivered with comfort, ease, enriching cultural encounters, and the exceptional service our guests know they can expect.”

A Landmark First in Private Jet Travel to Antarctica

TCS’s new partnership with White Desert, one of the few companies operating commercial jet access to the Antarctic interior, enables seamless private jet access to Antarctica's interior for the first time as a part of a global journey. Guests will depart from Cape Town and land on a striking blue-ice runway, where they’ll spend several awe-inspiring hours immersed in Antarctica’s untouched beauty. From exploring otherworldly ice tunnels to taking in sweeping glacial vistas, this expeditionary day trip delivers a once-in-a-lifetime polar experience seamlessly woven into the journey’s global itinerary. Guests’ comfort will be top of mind, with parkas and baffin boots provided for warmth, as well as warming lodges and arctic-equipped vehicles available to give respite from the cold. As this trip takes place during the Antarctic summer, guests will enjoy 24 hours of sunlight during this stop.

Additional new-to-TCS experiences include:

  • The addition of Zanzibar, Tanzania, home to spice markets, white-sand beaches, and Swahili architecture, which was not a part of previous Around the World Trips.
  • A deeper, end-to-end dive into Africa including vibrant excursions in Cape Town, South Africa, known for wine estates, Table Mountain, and world-class dining.
  • Staying at lodges in Maasai Mara: &Beyond Kichwa Tembo or &Beyond Bateleur (optional upgrade) – both firsts for TCS

Guests will embark on the Seven Continents journey aboard TCS’ state-of-the-art, custom-configured and outfitted Airbus A321*, a best-in-class aircraft that seats 52 guests and features the largest cabin by height and width of any single-aisle aircraft on the market. Designed for both comfort and sustainability, the jet includes Italian-crafted flatbed leather seats, a hospital-grade air filtration system, oversized lavatories with full-length mirrors and an 18-member crew including a dedicated chef and an onboard physician to ensure a seamless and elevated experience from takeoff to landing.

The Seven Continents itinerary – as with all of TCS World Travel’s Group Jet Expeditions – is fully all-inclusive, covering private flights, hand-selected accommodations, ground transportation, dining, expert guides, exclusive sightseeing options, special events, enrichment programming, and more. With a focus on exceptional service, TCS trips are designed for meaningful connection and an in-depth experience of place, without the logistics or complexity of traditional travel. Guests can request optional suite upgrades, and will have the option to upgrade to the &Beyond Bateleur Camp in Maasai Mara, Kenya.

The Seven Continents expedition costs $205,000 per person double occupancy.
