Glacier Landing: Add: 1/2Hour
A truly spectacular way to cap off your flightseeing adventure! We recommend light jackets, sunglasses and plenty of film. We can add a glacier landing to any tour package. We land throughout the spring, summer, and fall, when weather and snow conditions permit.  
Additional cost: $75.00
 
 
Glacier landings occur in Denali National Park, so a National Park Entrance Pass is required for passengers who don't already have one. We sell entrance passes at our office for $10 for individuals and $20 for families and are valid for entry into any national park for seven days.
