Like many others above I'd like to get to ANC again, but really need more notice. Met rwinn (and Jerry A.Laska!) last weekend, and have always wanted to buy eastwest a drink or three, so will make it there again for sure.

Re ANC Sheraton, stayed there last 2 times, and my only word of warning is that it is NOWHERE near anything else "downtown" if you have no car, so be mindful of that, and IIRC cab prices mount up darn quickly due to distances.

Someone on chat recently (MissyDarling maybe?) mentioned that there is a NW/AS award that allowed travel within USA including [it appeared] the connecting flight from ANC to Prudhoe Bay which I always wanted to visit and the "stopover" would be ANC. Visited Barrow once, and that was interesting. Have a lot of NW points - does anyone know if that award works that way? IIRC it was c40-50K in First.
