Airline and
Ferry Information
The town of Craig and Prince of Wales Island is served
by both scheduled air and water transportation originating
from Ketchikan, Alaska’s first city. Ketchikan is about
90 minutes north by air from Seattle.
Seattle to Ketchikan
All direct flights to Ketchikan originate from the
Seattle-Tacoma International Airport in Washington State.
Alaska Airlines is the only carrier currently providing jet
service to Ketchikan. During the summer at least 4 non-stop
flights arrive daily in Ketchikan from Seattle, starting early
in the morning through late afternoon, so further connections
to the Island are convenient.

Ketchikan to Craig
After arrival at the Ketchikan airport, several scheduled
carriers provide differing connecting services to the Craig
area and Prince of Wales Island, as follows:
(1) By float plane from the airport to the
Craig Seaplane Facility – about 2 minutes from the Lodge.

Klawock Airport – about 15 minutes from the Lodge.

of Wales for a leisurely 3 ½ hour voyage to the dock
at Hollis on the east side of Prince of Wales Island –
about 50 minutes from the Lodge. We’ll pick you up.
