IIRC DL is running some flat bed aircraft to ANC nonstop from ATL and/or JFK (not a D1 "service" route). There could be flatbed equipment on other major hub routes on a few dates, or you might be able to find a domestic FC widebody (with flatbeds and 100% direct aisle access in a 1-2-1 configuration) from a hub to SEA/MSP/DTW, connecting to ANC. Some variants of the DL757 have flatbeds too, in a slightly angled 2-2 configuration.

Too bad that only routings through DFW & ORD are permitted and the FAI flights end on early-October.
I hope with the next schedule update, AA extends the seasonality of these flights so I could benefit from this deal.

Can price out fai-ord-dfw-gjt-dfw-fai for $550. Approximately 12k EQM / 22.5k RDM for 75k's crediting to AS. Or 400TPs to BAEC. Fly in either direction.

Given how close-in you can get this fare (saw something next day even), I see this may be an attempt on AA part to put butts into seats to FAI.
