Flightseeing Tours in AK
by: Coleen, the RVing editor

No, it really is supposed to be "flight" seeing. Maybe it is just an Alaskan thing. Instead of a bus tour to go sight-seeing, you take tours by airplane. Some are very small planes, with only the pilot and one or two passengers. Other planes may hold a dozen or so passengers.

They're pretty common over glaciers, sometimes landing on the glacier so you can get out and walk around on it. Others fly over Denali National Park. They are a great way to see wildlife, volcanoes, and such. Bob and I did one that was a combined trip, where we and eight other passengers took a tour by van up the Hall road from Fairbanks to Prudhoe Bay, and then a flight seeing tour on the way back. Seeing from above puts things in a whole different perspective, not to mention the time savings.

Flight seeing operations provide much seasonal work in Alaska.

I don't know if they are hiring right now or not, but here are some of the companies that offer flightseeing tours in Alaska.
