Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport

Absolutely love this airport!! Always tidy and clean, and has a good air about it. I accidentally left my favorite water bottle on a flight, and thought it was gone forever. I’ve had it for years and many of the stickers on it are from fond memories I’ve made through those years. That same water bottle has been from South Africa, to Amsterdam, and all across the US! I went to Alaska Airline’s baggage claim with little hope, but an incredible employee named Breanne helped me look for it. After looking in the lost baggage area, it couldn’t be found. She asked me to leave my name and number, and I almost didn’t just because I figured it was futile. Breanne said she might know where to find it at some other place deeper in the airport. I left feeling sad, but knowing it was worth the drive just to know it was gone. Then, less than 2 miles from the airport I got a call!! Breanne asked again what it looked like, and happily reported she had found it! I rushed back and am now in possession of my lucky travel companion again.

Huge thanks to Alaska Airlines and Breanne both!! Love you guys!!

Happy to call AK home. The best airport in the globe. Never busy and all staff are amazing. Large parking structure right across the street from the arrival terminal. Loads of Taxis, Shuttles to hotels and public transport as well. The best airport in the globe.

The South Terminal airport is not too crowded, has Starbucks, couple of restaurants, gift shop, and lots of signs, but I’m sure people will still get lost.
Also has a separate line for TSA pre-check.

10/02/23- I loved landing to the scene of wildlife. I met friendly airport staff and officer's who were helpful in directing me to where I needed to go for my Lyft driver.
They have a visitor's center onsite. I travel tons and never been to one with one at the airport.
Great experience!

Anchorage metropolitan area has half the Alaska population of 730k people. Anchorage has a small but neat airport. No long lines at airline check-in, security check or bathrooms. Clean, beautiful and quiet, just like The Last Frontier!

I left phone in Gate entrance with Alaska Airlines and was notified on flight, offered to fly it out to me. I requested I pick it up on return flight, no hassle, thank you very much!
Very friendly from start to finish.

One of the best international airport, clean, safe ,and strict ,there are lots of shops , souvenirs , food choicess inside, easy access to tourist, signages are visible, toilets are well maintained ,

Nice airport in Alaska! It's clean, organized well, has a good amount of restaurants and shops, and nice views of the mountains. I especially like that there are water bottle filling stations next to all of the bathrooms.

Also, when I went here (Tuesday evening), it wasn't too crowded, and there were no lines. I'm not sure if this is the normal, but it seems like it's a pretty simple and efficient airport where you don't need to go there super early to make your flight.

Also - make sure to get a picture with the big moose if you're visiting Alaska!!

I have been yo many airports around the world, buy this one is much quieter, relaxed and the staff are polite too. Been happy with my visit.

Visiting Ted Stevens International Airport offered me the most seamless and stress-free airport experience I've encountered to date. One of the highlights was the remarkable efficiency in luggage handling; my bags arrived on the carousel with barely any wait time, a rarity in my travels. For someone navigating the airport for the first time, I found its layout intuitive and easy to follow, significantly reducing the usual anxiety of missing a flight due to getting lost.

The cleanliness of the facilities was another aspect that stood out. It's apparent that the staff goes to great lengths to maintain a pristine environment, making the waiting areas and restrooms exceptionally tidy and pleasant. Moreover, the airport personnel were not only professional but also genuinely friendly, readily offering assistance and directions with a smile. This level of organization and warmth from the staff contributed greatly to the overall positive atmosphere of the airport.

Beautiful airport. Clean and taken care of. All gates were crowded but OK.
They're obviously proud with the wildlife of Alaska.
The outdoors are beautiful too.

I love this airport. Easy to navigate around, clean, good food, staff is friendly and it's never too busy.

Beautiful airport! It is full of arts portraying Alaska. A couple of stuffed animals were displayed also. Lots of shopping and restaurants. It is very easy to find the gates.

Wonderful airport. It's not overly large what you have to run for life to get to gates to lite years away.
One of my favorites airports. It's clean and orderly. It's big enough to feel busy but not so big that it's overwhelming. I actually really like this airport. It has a functional and easy layout. Clean and well maintained. Alaska's main gateway . It’s Modern, beautiful,convenient, and very clean.Also filled with lots art, that commemorates the history of Alaska's Statehood! There are lots of gift shops. McDonald’s was the only place open late, so if traveling through plan for that/bring your own food.

Amazing airport. Clean with great options for shopping and food. Safe flights and gorgeous decor. TSA lines are usually quite short and it's a very speedy process to your gate

The airport is very clean. We love departing from here and arriving home plenty of police I always feel safe here. The restaurants are great plenty of chairs to sit and the bathrooms are always clean. The parking is nice but terminals in baggage. Claim area are always clean and easy to get to. Proud to call this place our home airport.

Nice and clean airport. Not as big as other airports, but it has just the right amount of amenities. If you have a service animal, there is a relief area. Also if you have a later flight, there is a storage room that you can keep your luggage in for a fee. Everything went very smoothly and no delays. Good experience.

Nice place has a few food places and the staff is so helpful. This is where the AIR2SEA Royal carribean train ticket area is, the bottom floor of this airport. It’s important to know that if you haven’t been before. Look everywhere for the people with the Royal carribean stickers and signs so you don’t miss your train to Seward.

Starting or ending your trip can be done here because it's an affordable, cozy, and comfortable place!

Layover here for about two hours! Space and cool place to relax, refuel, and embark for long trips! Traditionally you will see hunted wild mouses displayed in the buildings which is amazing!
