Travel
Flight Information
Flights should be booked for travel to Fairbanks International Airport (FAI). Due to the limited number of flights into Fairbanks, we recommend that you book flights as soon as possible.
There will be an opening mixer the evening of August 8 (Sunday), and the Conference dinner will be Friday evening (August 13), so plan your travel dates accordingly!
Please note that those wishing to attend the Mixing Model workshop will need to be in Fairbanks by the morning of Sunday 8th August. Thanks.
During the summer, Fairbanks is serviced by a larger number of air carriers, including Delta, Northwest and Alaska Airlines. European visitors may also wish to travel via Condor, which provides a shorter service direct from Frankfurt that flies over the North Pole. This service travels on Thursdays only, so we recommend that travelers using this service spend the extra time and take in some of what Alaska has to offer!
