FAQs for booking flights from the United Kingdom to Alaska

  • I’m booking a flight to Alaska for a glacier cruise. Which airport do I choose?

    Glacier cruises in Alaska depart from the coastal cities of Anchorage or Juneau. Both cities’ international airports are served by flights to Alaska via Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, operated by Alaska Airlines. However, if you’re flying on another airline or are planning a stopover in another city in the United States, choosing Anchorage Airport is the best option.

  • Which airport is closest to the Kenai Fjords National Park?

    Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport is the closest to the Kenai Fjords National Park, approximately 2h 15min away by car. Exit Glacier is one of the most popular areas of the park, but do check any warnings before travelling here, especially if you’re booking a last-minute flight to Alaska to visit the Kenai Fjords National Park. Some areas of the park might be closed at short notice due to potential icefalls.

  • I’m travelling to Alaska to see the Northern Lights. Which airports should I choose?

    One of the best places in Alaska to view the Northern Lights is in Fairbanks, which is served by Fairbanks International Airport. This airport is served by regular flights operated by Alaska Airlines from Seattle Tacoma and Anchorage. If you want more options for stopovers when flying from the UK, there are also some seasonal flights from Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport (MSP), Chicago O’Hare International Airport (ORD) and San Francisco International Airport (SFO).

  • How do I book a flight to visit the Arctic Coast?

    The city closest to the Arctic Coast is the northernmost city of Utqiagvik (Barrow), served by the Wiley Post-Will Rogers Memorial Airport (BRW). This airport is served by regular domestic flights from Anchorage and Fairbanks, operated by Alaska Airlines. Booking a flight to Barrow from anywhere in the United Kingdom involves multiple airlines and at least two stopovers since Alaska Airlines doesn't operate direct flights to Alaska from the UK.

  • How does KAYAK find such low prices on flights from the United Kingdom to Alaska?

    KAYAK is a travel search engine. That means we look across the web to find the best prices we can find for our users. With over 2 billion flight queries processed yearly, we are able to display a variety of prices and options on flights from the United Kingdom to Alaska.

  • How does KAYAK's flight Price Forecast tool help me choose the right time to buy my flight ticket from the United Kingdom to Alaska?

    KAYAK’s flight Price Forecast tool uses historical data to determine whether the price for a flight from the United Kingdom to Alaska is likely to change within 7 days, so travelers know whether to wait or book now.

  • What is the Hacker Fare option on flights from the United Kingdom to Alaska?

    Hacker Fares allow you to combine one-way tickets in order to save you money over a traditional round-trip ticket. You could then fly from the United Kingdom to Alaska with an airline and back with another airline.

  • What is KAYAK's "flexible dates" feature and why should I care when looking for a flight from the United Kingdom to Alaska?

    Sometimes travel dates aren't set in stone. If your preferred travel dates have some wiggle room, flexible dates will show you all the options when flying from the United Kingdom to Alaska up to 3 days before/after your preferred dates. You can then pick the flights that suit you best.

  • What is the cheapest day to fly to Alaska?

    Based on KAYAK data, the cheapest day to fly to Alaska is Friday where round-trip tickets can be as cheap as $1,508. On the other hand, the most expensive day to fly is Tuesday, where round-trip prices are $1,669 on average.

  • What is the cheapest time of day to fly to Alaska?

    The cheapest time of day to fly to Alaska is generally in the morning, when round-trip flights cost $1,630 on average. The most expensive time of day to fly to Alaska is generally in the morning, which is peak travel time and where the average cost of a ticket is $1,630.

Top tips for finding a cheap flight out of the United Kingdom

  • Alaska is served by three main airports: Fairbanks International Airport (FAI), Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport (ANC) and Juneau International Airport (JNU). If you want to select an airport with the most flight options from the UK, Anchorage has the most direct flights to Alaska from other destinations in the United States.
  • There are no direct flights to Alaska from the United Kingdom, so you’ll always need to plan for one or two stopovers. The most frequent stopover airports for passengers travelling to Anchorage are Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) and Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (SEA).
  • Even though Juneau is the capital city of Alaska, its airport has fewer options when it comes to airlines and routes. When booking flights to Alaska that land at this airport, you'll be limited to Alaska Airlines and a stopover in either Seattle or Anchorage.
  • Many people travel to Alaska from June to September, which is a popular time for whale watching, or from September to April, when most people travel to Alaska to experience the Northern Lights. If any of these nature-related activities is on your radar and you’d like to combine both in the same trip, it’s best if you start looking for flights as far in advance as possible.
  • UK citizens can travel to the United States visa-free if they're visiting for fewer than 90 days, but they still need a valid passport. Passengers travelling for tourism should apply for an ESTA, the Electronic System for Travel Authorisation, in advance.

Great service. Flight was delayed while we sat on the runway for a couple of hours. Weather related. Staff made is very bearable. The steward servicing the first class cabin was exceptional. Thank you! 💗

Great service. Flight was delayed while we sat on the runway for a couple of hours. Weather related. Staff made is very bearable. The steward servicing the first class cabin was exceptional. Thank you! 💗

5 hours of delay that could've been much shorter if Delta had taken the 1 hour delay they imposed on the flight before boarding to run any of the plane checks required for flight to find the hydraulic issue that required nearly 3 hours to fix. $24 of meal credit buys a sandwich and a soft drink. Poor communication within the terminal about what gate we'd be re-boarding from and when we'd be re-boarding.

Amazing flight! I have never noticed the uniforms of the attendants before in twenty years of flying except today when one female had the most amazing dress on. It was beautifully designed and showed she was in charge. I never dreamed I would google who designed Delta uniforms . The ultimate compliment is when another woman admires your outfit. . I hope your designer puts it on the market

It would be nice if was given wires ear buds. Overall was a good experience was able to sleep on the plane

My flight was 6 pm 6/6. Every hour they delayed it again - air condition issues then no pilot then the crew had worked too many hours and cancelled the flight at 11 pm. Sent customers to NJ a 45 minutes uber ride to a hotel. Had to be back by 5 am for a 7 am flight and again no pilot etc with another three hours of delays.

The entertainment and wifi mostly didn't work on this flight.

Boarding was tough as we had to take a bus out to the plane and walk up a lot of stairs. Difficult with heavy carry-ons that said I got an entire empty row of seats, which was excellent for an international flight. Food was very mediocre but happy with the comfort so not complaining.

Terrible entertainment system - kept freezing and audio kept cutting out. Snacks were mediocre at best for a 5 hour flight.

The check in and bag drop off for Sky Priority members is slow. The Clear security was also slow - a TSA issue.

Delta is better for short flights and very low need for customer service. Avoid for longer flights
