On the ship from Lima to Santiago (neither of them are actually seaports) if you ask the crew member if you can go with them to Antarctica, but she shoots you down. Is there a confirmed date where they announce a new update?
Nope, there's no more update scheduled, inkle themselves consider 80 Days a 'complete experience' after the previous update.
However, it doesn't mean the route doesn't exist - it's interesting what you wrote, I didn't about that conversation. Perhaps if you have the right items with you, they actually agree and divert the ship to make it around the southern tip of South America.
