And depending on the company not even possible

RT would be cheaper in the long run if they want to visit ANC area and FAI ie- would they be taking a cruise up? And where are they based @? If only FAI and surrounding area (Denali works) and north to Chena Hot Springs or other areas, the nonstop is soo much nicer- and if not based in SEA (or other west coast city) NW typically has a seasonal nonstop to FAI from MSP (not sure if its every day of the week, but for those in the Midwest or on the East Coast... another viable option
