No Ordinary Adventure

Captain Dan Blanchard recently sat down with the Alaska Travel Industry Association to discuss the tourism industry in Alaska.

Many people also visit Alaska for its wildlife, glaciers, and national parks.But due to Alaska’s remote location and vast size, it can be difficult to reach many parts of Alaska, and the harsh weather conditions can also be a barrier for travelers. Despite these challenges, the Alaska Travel Industry Association shared some expert travel tips for those planning a trip to Alaska. Whether you're considering a move to the state or planning a vacation, understanding the factors that shape the tourism industry in Alaska can help you better plan and enjoy your experience. Find more at www.alaskatia.org/Connect with ATIA on Instagram https://www.facebook.com/alaskatia And LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/company/alaska-travel-industry-association
