What will Qantas use on future Antarctic sightseeing flights when all the 747s are gone?

My best bet would be on a 787-9, but I'm not too sure...

That would be one option mabye even an A380 if the demand is big enough mabye it will move operator again 

To be honest I cannot get who is paying money just flying over Antarctic - to me sounds incredibly boring. I do not mind to land and spend few days, but just flying over? YMMV though.

I agree,

Bur often wondered why they don't run a PER-SCL Flight.

It would fly straight over Antarctica therefore offering a sightseeing flight for those that wanted, along with an easier connection to South America from the West Coast.

Could please both camps

Not 100% sure about this but I would have thought the 787-9 would be ETOPS limited and may not be able to make this run as a twin. 

To respond to Serg - my elderly neighbour did the flight last year and loved it. I think the common misconception is that you're looking at white ice the whole time over the big A - apparently that's not the case!

yeah true, didn't think about etops. Maybe in the future QF could get a few 787s to cover the a380s on routes like LAX and HKG so they could get some a380s to do the sight-seeing flights and once the sightseeing flights are over put the a380 back in regular service.
