Just an FYI for anyone going on an Antarctic trip that also included South Georgia Island. South Georgia is part of the UK and you need an ETA for it. But the standard UK ETA is not sufficient - there's a separate South Georgia ETA and it's a lot more expensive than the standard UK ETA. More than likely, the cruise line will obtain the South Georgia ETA for you.
You do not need an ETA for the Falkland Islands.
