In 2013, Alaska Seaplanes merged with another airline Stedman and Craford owned, Air Excursions, expanding the airline's route network and services and making it the primary airline offering flights in Southeast Alaska.

Destinations

Economy Class

Alaska Seaplanes operate very small aircraft, which only gives it space for one cabin — Economy Class. The seats in the cabin are spaced out and give more room than normally found in Economy Class on other airlines that use bigger planes.

Facilities

The service is lead by one of the airline's pilots, who goes through all of the necessary pre-flight safety checks in great detail.

As services are usually short and simple, there's no in-flight entertainment. However, all Alaska Seaplane flights offer incredible views of the surrounding scenery during the journey.

Seats

Seats are set out in a 1 x 2 or 1 x 1 formation. The cabin is small but spacious, which gives passengers a good amount of space around their seat.
