The big run to ANC is the summer only 757 off DFW. All other flights are probably Alaskan codeshares which are not allowed on xONEx. I would recommend the end of season in September as the best time to visit.
If you are into aviation, I would recommend that you walk all the way around Lake Hood which is in the middle of ANC airport and have a look at the floatplanes. I think that this is the largest collection in one place in the world. If not, it is second to the other floatplane base in Anchorage. You can always stop at Pipers for a big meal and drink on the way round. A truely aweinspiring way to get some fresh air.
Can you post what class you are travelling in, the FF programme you are a member of and if miles or status points are important to you. That will help the advice line operators.
