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:
 
Re: Getting to Ancohrage International from the UK

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.

All checked in for my flight to Sydney from Manchester via Heathrow. Been waiting for this trip for nearly a year and now tomorrow I'll finally head to Australia and New Zealand!

survived a redundancy scenario where I work for the 3rd time. Now it looks likely I will get to cover work for 2 other teams.. Pretty please for a payrise? That would be a no and so stay on the min wage.
Live in Market Bosworth and take each day as it comes......
Well it looks like I'm off to Australia and New Zealand next year! Booked with BA from Manchester via Heathrow with a stop in Singapore and returning with Air New Zealand and BA via LAX to Heathrow. Will circumnavigate the globe and be my first trans-Pacific flight. First long haul flight with BA as well and of course Air NZ.
15 years at the same company was reached the weekend before last. Not sure how they will mark the occasion apart from the compulsory payirse to minimum wage (1st rise for 2 years; i was 15% above it back then!)
