The Chilean government has ruled out covering the transportation costs of 19-year-old American pilot and influencer Ethan Guo, who remains under a travel ban in Antarctica after landing without authorization. Defense Minister Adriana Delpiano explained that while “there is no impediment” for him to leave the white continent on a private flight, Guo himself must cover the cost through a private aviation company.
Ethan Guo, a 19-year-old pilot and social media influencer, has been detained on King George Island, Antarctica, after a failed attempt to complete a solo flight across all seven continents to raise US$1 million for childhood cancer research.
