At least FAI/SEA seems to be about 5 winter flights per day - I seem to remember several years back that it was maybe 1 or 2 daily.

I wonder if there's enough FAI traffic to support a 3x (or so) a week HI service - and I mean generally HI, where it might not presently make sense to share revenue on a single ticket with another inter-island airline, but it might make sense if AS owns the inter-island airline.
