It is more than a three hour flight from Anchorage to Seattle!

As I understand it, there are a number of ferries that go from Seattle to various locations in Alaska. The time is obviously longer, but perhaps the cost is lower. It's been a while since I've been up that way. I took the USNS Silas Bent from Seattle to Kodiak in 1989 (was it really that long ago?), but I was surveying, not just a passenger.
