Alaska, at the northern edge of the Pacific Ocean, is a crossroads of the world for air travelers.

Nonstop domestic flights arrive in the summer from a list of cities that includes Atlanta, Dallas/Fort Worth, Denver, Minneapolis, Portland, Salt Lake City, San Francisco and Seattle.

Domestic airlines serving Anchorage, Fairbanks and Juneau include Alaska, American, Continental, Delta, Northwest and United.

Alaska Airlines is the only jet carrier for most of the state. From its hub in Anchorage, it serves these cities: Barrow, Cordova, Fairbanks, Gustavus (Glacier Bay National Park), Juneau, Ketchikan, Kodiak, Kotzebue, Nome, Petersburg, Sitka, Wrangell and Yakutat.

International flights arrive from destinations including Frankfurt, Germany; Seoul, South Korea; Taipei, Taiwan; Tokyo, Japan; and Vancouver, Canada.

Alaska (except for the distant reaches of the Aleutians Islands) is in the Alaska time zone. When it's 4 p.m. in New York and 1 p.m. in California, it's noon in Alaska.
