Denali (Mt. McKinley) is 80 miles away from our airstrip. Weather conditions at the Mountain will often be different from those in our area. Please feel free to call for the current pilot’s reports but know that we do not make decisions based on weather until about an hour before flight time. We will always send a driver to pick-up locations with the most up-to date information at the allotted pick-up times. Exact route and specific sights are weather dependent but due to our airstrip's unique location, we are able to access either side of the Alaska Range when others cannot. We have the highest success rate of showing Denali to our guests of any tour option, anywhere.

This air tour around NorthAmerica's highest mountain is terrific on a clear day. The staff was very friendly and accommodating of our schedule, the flight was smooth, and the audio guide was very informative about glaciers, geologic conditions, and local interest details. It was pricey but worth it.

This flight is one of my very favorite parts of being in Denali. You don't realize how close you are to all of the breathtaking glaciers and mountains until you get up in that plane and get some perspective. Denali Air, as a company, is really super. It is locally owned and operated, with stellar, experienced pilots and great people behind the desk. Well worth the money. Anyone who goes to Denali should definitely go flightseeing.

I took to the skies with Denali Air to see Mt McKinley on the 27 August 2011 .The day was perfect not a cloud in the sky you could almost put your hand out and touch it as the pilot professionally manuvoured between the peaks.The commentary was flawless be it the pilot or recorded info. Not a cheap flight but worth the experience.
