SITKA TRAVEL TIPS AND INFORMATION

Sitka is a small community and hotels/transportation can be limited in the busy summer months. If you will be spending some extra time in Sitka (highly recommended!) or just need a place for the night, we’d advise you to book early and have your land-based transportation lined up.

Airfare

• Alaska Airlines - Alaska Airlines flies in to Sitka from Seattle, WA and Anchorage, AK year round.

  Delta Airlines - Delta will be operating direct flights to Sitka from Seattle, WA between June and Septmber .

lodging

• Airbnb - In our opinion, this the best option if you are staying for more than a single night. There are a lot of cool spots to stay and Sitkans are good people.

• Longliner Lodge - Right on the water, walking distance to downtown, small private hotel

• Aspen Hotel - Great location, no airport shuttle, clean, simple rooms

• Westmark Hotel - Great location, airport shuttle!, dated but clean rooms

transportation

We are an Uberless community! At the moment we also have a limited number of cabs - if your in town lodging does not have a shuttle, we would highly recommend booking your airport transport a week in advance. Cabs can be hard to come by at the last minute.
