ANC sits on more than 4,800 acres in Anchorage and is best known for cargo, not passengers: it's North America's second-busiest cargo airport and among the top five worldwide by cargo traffic, thanks to a location roughly 9.5 hours' flying time from 90% of the industrialised world.
On the passenger side, ANC offers domestic flights across Alaska and the continental US, plus seasonal international routes — reflecting its dual role as a regional Alaska hub and a trans-Pacific cargo waypoint.
Cargo carriers including FedEx, UPS, Northern Air Cargo and Lynden Air Cargo operate major freight hubs at ANC, alongside the passenger airlines serving Alaska's largest city.
ANC has two passenger terminals, with the main facilities in the South Terminal. It also sits next to Lake Hood Seaplane Base, the world's busiest seaplane base, reflecting Alaska's reliance on small-plane travel.
Anchorage Airport is a short drive from downtown Anchorage, with taxis, rideshare and rental cars all available outside the terminals; public bus services also connect the airport to the city.
Terminals offer dining, shopping, free Wi-Fi and seating, plus displays of Alaskan wildlife and art that reflect the airport's role as a gateway to the state.
