Best rate found: $850
Depending how many days you're in Fairbanks vs Anchorage, it might be cheaper to split it into 2-3 rentals. Options would be:
1. Fairbanks-Fairbanks
2. Fairbanks-Anchorage
3. Anchorage-Anchorage

Or drop segment 1 or 3 depending how many days your in each. Just play with it and see if it works, but typically the best option is to minimize the days that you've got the 1-way car since they're the most expensive.
