Hi Folks,

Been off the radar for a while, as I've been extremely busy. But am back temporarily to seek some advice...

I have been given one of those 'opportunities of a lifetime' next June to go to Alaska. This is to present at a conference in Anchorage, so naturally I'm having difficulty containing my enormous excitement at the prospect of this fabulous trip.

Despite being the Alaskan state capital, Anchorage doesn't seem too easy to get to in under a very large amount of hours, or without 2 changes.

The best trip I can find using this year's timetables is from Frankfurt, which is direct with Condor, and there is a connecting flight from Manchester to Frankfurt with Condor. This seems OK, although it's a little more expensive than I have pre-budgeted for going on this year's prices.

But I just wondered if any of you seasoned travellers might have any other suggestions for getting to Anchorage, that won't take too long or too many plane changes.

Many thanks! :hatsoff:

I believe Icelandair now do 1 stop connection to Anchorage from MAN/GLA/LHR/LGW, and they usually come out quite cheap for trans atlantic travel.

Other than that, 1 stop via the west coast USA could be a good bet as plenty of connections from that side of the USA.

Heads Up!

i must be a lunatic. Friday 25th Sept will see me doing a daytrip that involves me leaving my flat in Manchester at 1am and not getting back home until after midnight. All because I'm doing a Loch Ness and Scottish Highlands trip.... out of Glasgow
For some weird reason, my days off work tend to involve being out of my flat by 5am and not getting back until 10pm. Back to work and the regular "fix" of 7.40am to 7.15pm hours
Heatwave Mk2 next week?
Some explosive weather build-ups currently in the North of England. What is it like where you are?
LBA: B737-300 G-GDFK empty down to Paris at 16:15 to operate the return LS268 back to Leeds 20:00 ETA where it will then operate the delayed LS265 to Malaga 20:40ETD
