Best Answer

Hovercraft is remarkable technology, expanding transit options in unpredictable terrain, as below.

The performance of Hovercraft in this extreme environment means that for any predictable period of uptime, you'd be required to carry a Hovercraft mechanic and spare parts with you as you travel.

Known performance in Antarctica is not reliable enough to permit unsupported transit using this technology.
