Need a Car For After Your Flight?

Known as the Last Frontier, Alaska remains beyond the travel horizons of some, but those who do visit this wilderness can enjoy its imposing landscapes and unparalleled natural beauty.

Flights to Alaska

The majority of travelers booking flights to Alaska will choose Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport (ANC) as their entry point, with many passengers connecting to smaller airports from Anchorage. International airlines do service the airports of Fairbanks, Juneau, and Ketchikan as well. Low cost travel options usually favor ANC which then enables easy access to other parts of Alaska. Numerous bus and shuttle companies offer low cost services to and from the airport, and a number of local hotels offer their guests discounts on shuttle services such as Suvana. Deals are also available on rental cars and taxi services. More adventurous travelers may take Alaska flights to Ketchikan International Airport (KTN), which is situated on an island a short ferry ride from the city itself.

Alaska Weather

Alaska is an enormous place (more than half the size of the continental U.S.), so the weather is variable depending on region and season. The southeast has four distinct seasons and experiences the highest rainfall, but also the mildest summers. Travelers on Alaska flights not prepared for extreme cold should consider heading for Anchorage, while those hoping to see the renowned Northern Lights should consider heading for Fairbanks which has easier access to the northern region. Wherever you are headed in Alaska, it’s advisable to dress in layers as the weather is liable to change quickly and snowstorms in summer are quite possible.

Getting Around Alaska

After booking flights to Alaska, the next priority is deciding how you will travel once you have arrived. With so much ground to cover, it’s important to plan ahead and judge how much you can conceivably achieve in the time you are there. If you are visiting more remote or isolated areas, traveling by air is a great way to access small fishing villages and other isolated areas of natural beauty. The Alaska Park connection is a luxury bus service that gives visitors a budget option to see some of Alaska’s most scenic highways, while the Alaska Railroad connects the city of Anchorage to popular destinations such as Denali National Park—offering day trips and overnight packages.

Alaska Attractions

Most travelers booking flights to Alaska are drawn by its wilderness and capacity for outdoor adventure. But, with cities such as Anchorage and Juneau offering a spirited and cosmopolitan experience, Alaska has more to offer than just mountains and mushing.

  • Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race: the most famous (and grueling) event in Alaska
  • Denali National Park: home to the grizzly bear, caribou, and moose
  • The Alaska Cruise: stops at destinations such as Ketchikan and Juneau
  • Chena Hot Springs Resort: open year-round and offering winter sports as well as restorative hot springs
  • Kenai Fjords National Park: gives visitors the opportunity to hike or drive to the very edge of an active glacier

How to book the cheapest flight to Alaska?
Snapping up cheap flights to Alaska is as simple as booking with Orbitz. But if you’re eager to make sure you’re getting the best flight deals around, here are a few tips worth following:

  • Taking off from or landing at nearby airports may help you cut costs. Enter your preferred departure and arrival points. Next, click on the ‘Nearby airports’ function below to explore your options.
  • If you’re flexible with your schedule, click on the ‘Show flexible dates’ option. It’ll bring up flight deals for the days either side of your selected departure. Ticket prices often vary depending on the day of the week.
  • To optimize your results, hit ‘Show options.’ You can search based on seating class, airlines, and nonstop and refundable flights. You can also choose the time of day you’d like to fly under ‘Sort & Filter’ to the left.
  • The early bird gets the most rewarding deals, so book as soon as you know your travel dates. The most affordable fares get snapped up first and prices normally climb as the departure date nears.
  • Bundle your hotels, flights and car rental into an impressive package deal. Save your hard-earned dollars for things you’re really excited about, like discovering every corner of Alaska.
  • Don’t travel during the busy season if possible. By avoiding school vacations and summer, you can save loads on your airfares.

What is the best time to book a flight to Alaska?
Generally speaking, the cheapest month to purchase your airfare is January. This is closely followed by February and August. When seeking a cheap flight to Alaska, make sure you’re ready to book. Cheap deals emerge in an instant and don’t hang around!
What day of the week is the cheapest to book a flight to Alaska?
To pick up a fantastic flight deal, book on a Tuesday, Wednesday or Saturday. These are typically the cheapest days of the week to book tickets to Alaska.
What is the cheapest day of the week to fly to Alaska?
Look into flying early in the week to nab cheap flights to Alaska. Orbitz data from 2020 suggests Monday is normally the most inexpensive day to start your trip, followed by Tuesday. Saturdays were shown to have the highest ticket prices. Presumably, this is because many travelers prefer to start their escape on a weekend.
What is the cheapest month to fly to Alaska?
Fly in August if you’re on a budget. Orbitz data has found that it’s generally the best month for cheap flights to Alaska. June is when ticket prices really go up.
Which airlines allow free cancellation?
Flexibility is more important than ever, that’s why Orbitz lets you search for carriers that won’t slap on fees for any amendments. Enter your departure and arrival points, then select “Filter by flexible change policies.” We’ll show you options that include free cancellation within 24 hours of booking and no change fees.
What do I need for the flight to Alaska?
Any lengthy flight can be daunting, but it’s nothing a little preparation can’t fix. We’ve put together our top tips and tricks to make sure your trip is a hassle-free one:

  • Nothing is more important than your travel documents. Which to bring and how many depend on whether you’re traveling domestic or international. Be sure to check with your airline. In both cases, you’ll need to show photo identification.
  • Bring some extra entertainment for your long trip to Alaska. When you’re done watching movies, give your eyes a much-needed rest from all that screen time and listen to an audio book.
  • Long-haul flights can get seriously cold, especially if you’re flying overnight. If you don’t want to spend your journey shivering in your seat, pack a sweater and some thick socks.

How do I get cheap first-class/business deals to Alaska?
Experienced travelers have a knack for finding first or business-class airfares to Alaska without the eye-watering price tag. Follow in their footsteps with these practical tips:

  • Be flexible with your travel dates and wait for deals on business or first-class airfares.
  • Find a budget carrier that offers business-class seats. They usually come with extra space and a glass of bubbly — and a more appealing price.
  • Bid for an upgrade in online auctions or upgrade your fare with your frequent flyer points.

What is the best time to go to Alaska?
Anytime is an awesome time to go to Alaska, but March, April and May are the liveliest months. Like most places in the Northern Hemisphere, summer commences June 20. If you’d sooner get around in a light T-shirt than a thick winter coat, this time of the year would suit you nicely. Expect average daily highs of 60 ºF and nighttime lows around 45 ºF.
Travel tips for Alaska

  • The possibilities for a great time in Alaska are almost endless — and Disneyland® is just one place you’ll find it. Book a car rental, find out how to get to this awesome attraction and then hit the road!
  • If you enjoy all the fun and action of major cities, begin your adventure in Anchorage. This fascinating destination is the first port of call for many visitors to the area.
