Transportation

Travel by Air:

Several cities in the Lower 48 offer nonstop flights to Anchorage and Fairbanks. If you are traveling to a destination in Alaska's Inside Passage, connections are made through Seattle, WA. Locations in rural Alaska are accessible from Anchorage and Fairbanks.

Numerous domestic and international carriers offer air service to Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport as well as many charter flights.

Flights within Alaska: Most in-state flights are made in jets or turboprop aircraft. Scheduled air taxi and air charter service provide access to small communities and remote destinations via propeller-driven "bush planes." Helicopters are also increasing in popularity for flight seeing trips.
