Do you have any tips for my flight to Fairbanks?

  • What you pack in your carry-on can mean the difference between a comfortable flight, and one that leaves you tired. Start with the must-haves, such as a valid ID (like your passport) and your travel documents. Once they’re safely packed, toss in any medications you might need. After that, consider your comfort factor. A quality neck pillow, earphones and a novel will help the hours fly by while you’re soaring through the sky.
  • There’s also a list of prohibited items for your hand luggage which can differ between carriers. Generally, avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like razor blades, box cutters, flares and aerosol cans. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, tennis rackets and objects that could harm passengers, such as batons and swords, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of a plane aren’t the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and bring a hoodie since it can get cool in the cabin during long-haul flights. Closed-toe shoes are best for longer journeys.
  • Reduce your risk of developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition which can be caused by sitting for extended periods, by regularly moving around the cabin. Alternatively, do foot and leg exercises in your seat. If you’re at higher risk of developing DVT, think about wearing compression socks.

How can I get a cheap last-minute flight to Fairbanks?
The key to finding a cheap last-minute flight to Fairbanks is to be flexible. You can boost your chances of scoring a terrific deal if you’re not tied to specific travel dates, flight times and airlines. Also compare the prices of flying into and out of alternative airports if that’s an option.
Where can I learn more about changing or canceling my flight to Fairbanks?
Most flights are free to cancel within 24 hours of making the reservation. However, some flights are non-refundable, and you may receive a flight credit from the airline to use for a future booking. For more information, please visit our Customer Service Portal.
