Flight from Fairbanks to US in Sept

[Lizzie1]

We're taking a HAL northbound cruise from Vancouver to Anchorage with a land tour ending in Fairbanks in mid-Sept. There are many airline options for Vancouver (including going to Seattle and driving), but I can find little information about options from Fairbanks. We live on the East Coast. Should we book through the cruiseline, or are there savings to be had by booking ourselves? Some airlines, like SW, don't yet book that far in advance.

Well Southwest doesn't fly to Alaska so you don't need to wait for them to open up bookings for September.

 

You need to look for an open jaw ticket (some websites call it a multi-city or multi-destination ticket).

I too am from the East Coast. Check out Northwest Airlines (http://www.nwa.com). I booked flights from Boston to Vancouver & Fairbanks back to Boston for $599.00 per person for June. A long leg coming home but for the price we didn't mind.

I would also suggest you add a couple days, for Fairbanks touring, plenty to see and do with a necessary rental car. You see very little of Fairbanks on a cruisetour. Perhaps, consider taking advantage of being there?

 

IF you want to go with Southwest, then you'll need to book Alaska Airlines/other one way to Seattle.

Thanks for your help. I'll look into NWA and staying over in Fairbanks.
