Transportation
Ketchikan and the airport are separated by water and transportation to the town is by the airport ferry which meets all flights.  The Ketchikan Transporter provides door to door service from and to the airport for all arriving and departing flights. For more information call 907-225-9800.  Tongass Water Taxi also meets flights at the airport, weather dependent. You will see their personnel in the baggage claim area or you can call Rich at (907) 225-TAXI.

Taxi cabs are available on the town side at the airport ferry dock and at the Alaska Marine Highway ferry terminal. To homes outside the city, it is usually better to rent a car. If you would like to rent a car, we recommend Alaska Car Rental.  They have offices in town and at the airport. They offer courtesy transfers. You can get a discount with Alaska Car Rental if you book online and use my code KRSWANDA or by calling toll free 800-662-0007.

The Bus operates three routes within the city limits and along Tongass Avenue as far South as Mile 4/Rotary Beach (GREEN LINE to RED LINE); and North to Mile 10/Totem Bight State Historical Park (BLUE LINE) Monday-Friday only. The fare is $1 (Adult) and $.50 (student 5 years and up) per person (exact change required in U.S. currency). No charge for immediate transfer to next bus. See the Bus Route and The Bus Schedule online. Bus Schedule and Rate subject to change. You should check their web page for up-to-date information.
