Airline Travel

Your travel to Kodiak will inevitably bring you to Anchorage. Whether you are getting there on an Alaska, American, Delta, jetBlue, or other airline, the one you will take between Anchorage and Kodiak is Alaska Airlines (there's no other option). Alaska Air has a “Peace of Mind waiver” that covers change and cancellation fees for flights booked through March 31st, and is eliminating all change fees for First and Main cabin seats after April 1st, 2021.

Travel Note

Alaska Marine Highway (The only alternative to a flight)

If you have time for a day on the ferry, this can be a fun option if you are driving from somewhere in Alaska. The ferry route most people use from the mainland to Kodiak leaves from Homer. The price is based off of the length of your vehicle (you can also walk on, ride a bike, etc.).

Travel Note

Buskin River Campgrounds

If you're driving to Kodiak and looking to set up a camp somewhere, these camp sites are a great place. It's very close to the Buskin River and the beach, so you'll probably get to see some bears fishing! It is a first come first serve campground with picnic shelters, restrooms, and fire places.
