Anchorage in late December with a 7yo
My 7yo daughter will need about 5000 miles for UA platinum and we need to fly out of LAX between Christmas and New Year's.
Anchorage seems to be the most reasonable with the other option being IAD or Kansas City (to see the San Diego Chargers play the Chiefs if I can convince the wife). But we have never been to Alaska and it is the cheapest flight of the 3.
I noticed that there are only about 6.5 hours of daylight. Would there be enough time to do something there?
Any recommendations?
