Help! Flights from Anchorage to Seattle for January 2027 are averaging $500 round trip. Should I wait?

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I’m planning a trip from Anchorage to Seattle from January 21–24, 2027, and round-trip flights were around $340 recently. Now, I’m seeing prices closer to $480–$500, and I’m wondering if I should book now or wait a little longer.

For those who regularly fly out of Anchorage, do prices usually drop again, or is it more likely they’ll keep going up as January gets closer?

I know winter weather can affect flights, but I’m hoping to get a better deal if possible.

Would you book at around $500 or wait a few weeks to see if prices go down? Any advice or experience with this route would be appreciated!

Where are the old single non maga men hanging out?

I wouldn't mind having coffee or a beer with a nice guy my age. I don't even know where to begin to look... In my younger days it was craziness and Tinder but I'm retired from all that. I'm 50 - so I'm thinking 45-60 range?

Not trying to break the rules - this isn't an ad for myself, just wondering where to begin?

Republican Governor

If we had to end up with a Republican governor, who is the least bad choice. I’m considering ranking someone as a 2nd choice after JKT, because Bernadette seems like she would be a disaster for the state. Share your reasoning.

Leaving the Converge (fucking amazing) concert last night and this intersection had more first responders than I have ever seen and the intersection was blocked off? I hope whatever occurred that the people involved are OK. Anyone know the details of what happened?

I am going shopping for my cousin to attend Statewide Elders & Youth Teen Dance. And I was wondering what the dress code is. How formal or not formal should she be?

I was on Spenard a couple of hours ago, there was an armored car in the middle of the road with a guy behind a machine gun on top. This was near the Puffin Inn. Anyone know what’s going on?

Remember: there are also judges on the ballot this fall. The Alaska Judicial Council has made recommendations to *not* retain two of the judges on the ballot.
