fram,ma Posted May 31, 2008 #1 Share Posted May 31, 2008 We will be in Anchorage for 9 hours before our flight takes off and we won't have a car. We are thinking of checking in at the airport then do something in town. Any suggestions? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nancyquilts Posted May 31, 2008 #2 Share Posted May 31, 2008 If it's raining, you couldn't do better than the Anchorage Museum of History and Art (or vice versa) at 7th and A. Nancy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Budget Queen Posted May 31, 2008 #3 Share Posted May 31, 2008 Are you being transfered to the airport?? It is no where near downtown. You may have the option of taking cruise tranfers and being taken downtown , with available bag storage at Egan Center. Plenty to keep you busy there, http://www.anchorage.net Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fram,ma Posted June 1, 2008 Author #4 Share Posted June 1, 2008 Because some members of our group have an earlier flight, we have arranged for transfer from Seward to Anchorage airport. The rest of us don't leave for another 7 hours. We thought since we'd be at the airport, we can check in and leave our luggage there, then find something to do and eat before boarding our flight at 9 pm.

Airlines still have only, the prior, 4 hour bag check rule that I know of. Pay storage at Anchorage airport is available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cjnky Posted June 1, 2008 #6 Share Posted June 1, 2008 I'd strongly suggest renting a car for the day. We saw sooo much in our 9 hour wait including the Native Heritage Center, Earthquake Park, etc. Sure did beat sitting in the airport all day. (This probably won't cost you much more than what they charge to store your bags for the day!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
