FLOAT PLANE TRANSPORTATION

Round trip transportation to the FLOATEL from Ketchikan is arranged by us with a float plane service.  
Our special rate gets you to the FLOATEL dock and  includes up to 40 lbs. baggage per person.  On your
return trip you will also be allowed two 50# fish boxes at no additional charge.

Please limit your luggage to a minimum for a smoother trip to our “wilderness” location. Excess baggage
rate is 57¢ a pound. If you bring ice chests, they will charge a flat rate of $45.00 each in addition to your
quoted fair.  Ice chests are harder to deal with as freight and the float plane service would prefer you

bring your extras in fish boxes or other bags.  If you do bring ice chests, they should NOT be larger than
the 54 quarts size.  Extra large bags are difficult to load and may not travel with you and would need to
be delivered later.  
Rates: $260 per person round trip with 40# of gear.
                              NOTE: This rate is subject to change by the float plane service.
