How far from the Airport to Town? Would it be worth my while? FYI...I'm a 47yr old flying alone, would it be safe enough? I'd love to see something while i'm there. Yes, even the local watering hole...lol

  1. In Anchorage if you don't drink, you're gonna be bored.


  2. There is a place called Point Woronzof which is near the airport...it's kinda like an Alaskan beach lol.Don't go too close to the water though because it is mudflats.

  3. There is a gigantic stuffed grizzly bear (a real one) in one of the terminals...find him and have someone take your  picture with it...then head to the bar.  It is a small, dumpy airport....not a lot to see/do/eat.  Bring many distractions!  Magazines, book, ipod, etc.

  4. I would go into the town of Anchorage and find an art museum or a tour. A nice leisurely meal in town preferably at a local Brewery is better than the airline meals. Gooogle Anchorage and make a plan and write down a few key points and take it with you. You can also look at  Fodors or Frommers and take notes with you.
