Reaching Sitka is easy with Alaska Airlines offering daily year-round flights. Once you’ re here, flying becomes more than just a way to get around— it’ s an invitation to explore deeper. Alaska Seaplanes offers scenic flights, air taxi services to nearby towns, and access to take you far off the beaten path.
With Baranautica Air Service, the flight is only part of the adventure.“ My goal is to create fun, safe flights,” says owner and pilot Kevin Mulligan.“ I fly people over glaciers and crevasses. We see goats, bears, and whales from the air, and I’ m licensed to land on lakes.” As the owner of Fisherman’ s Inn near the community of Port Alexander on Baranof Island’ s southern tip, Kevin handles mail delivery to this small fishing town. On your way to this incredible area, you might even find yourself part of a mail drop.
At Harbor Air Services, Sitka-born pilot Jackson McGraw continues a family tradition of connecting people to Alaska’ s outdoors. The roar of the engine fades into the background as your plane soars over Mt. Edgecumbe, its volcanic peak standing tall against the horizon.“ It’ s a privilege to connect people with some of the most remote and breathtaking parts of Alaska. Every flight is unique, from adapting to the weather to encountering wildlife,” Jackson says.
His flightseeing tours offer a window into the dramatic contrasts of Baranof Island.
“ It’ s an incredible way to experience the diversity of the landscape in a short amount of time.”

Whether you’ re flying to explore a small Southeast community, skimming the shoreline of Baranof
Warm Springs Bay, or landing on the waters of a glacial alpine lake, every flight in Sitka promises views that will leave you in awe. These charter pilots do more than just get you from point A to point B— they share a unique perspective of Sitka and the land they know so well.
Glacier water ' s vivid hues are a result of a unique interaction between sunlight and mineral-rich sediment.
