737 Leg 6 The North Pole - Day 112

We've had news through - We are on the first passenger flight, but it looks like this will be on Tuesday the 5th as the runway is still not finished. The group has been reduced in size as we were adamant to ski the full degree. The good news is we are still to be led by Alan Hubert who's awesome and gives us the best chance of moving fast through the ice as he has had loads of experience in reading it. Our flight off the ice and back to Longyearbyen looks like it has been pushed back. I'm not stressed as the main thing is we are on the first passenger flight, we have the best leader, a strong team and we are definitely skiing the full degree. Last night, Steve and I met Prince Harry and the soldiers trekking to the Pole. They were great guys. Steve and I have been putting the final tweaks and additions to our gear and food. Can’t wait to get going.
