Alaska Seaplanes is the premier commuter airline based in Juneau, Alaska. They operate a fleet of 14 aircraft. Their newest addition to the fleet is a Pilatus PC-12 – a fully pressurized, nine- passenger aircraft that flies above the weather cruising at speeds of up to 300mph and at altitudes of up to 29K feet. Alaska Seaplanes also operates 5 Cessna Caravans – one of the most capable aircraft in Southeast Alaska. Four of these aircraft are Supervan 900’s powered by a Honeywell (Garrett) 900 HP engine. They also operate a Piper Navajo Chieftain and two C-207’s. Five of these aircraft are regularly flown on an IFR platform to improve reliability in SE Alaska’s challenging weather conditions. In addition to the Caravan on floats, Alaska Seaplanes owns and operates three deHavilland Beavers and two C-206’s to give them the versatility to get you where you need to go. Alaska Seaplanes provides year-round scheduled service to twelve communities from Juneau. These include Angoon, Tenakee Springs, Pelican and Elfin Cove on floats, and Skagway, Haines, Gustavus Hoonah, Kake, Sitka, Klawock and Excursion Inlet on wheels. They carry passengers, U.S. Mail, freight and UPS on their scheduled flights. They also specialize in custom charters for passengers or freight anywhere in Alaska, Canada and the Pacific Northwest. Alaska Seaplanes is also a partner in Pack Creek Bear Tours – the premier, fully-guided excursion to the Pack Creek Bear Sanctuary on Admiralty Island. This tour is a partnership with Kootznoowoo, Inc., the Native Corporation for Angoon on Admiralty Island.

Shelby Hi, my name is Shelby! I was born and raised in Juneau, which is where my family and I currently reside. Although, I must be honest with you, it is tough to call only one place home since we enjoy the many attributes from all over Southeast Alaska. We spend quite a bit of our time finding treasures on the beach, traveling around Alaska to visit family and friends, exercising our two dogs, and taking the boat out to run the rivers as much as possible. I am a JDHS graduate and I have continued my education by enjoying life and challenging myself to the experiences and opportunities that have come my way. I recently entered the airline industry through Alaska Seaplanes. I have the pleasure of witnessing the hustle and bustle of every department, and every employee’s key role has given me a new perspective of the business and respect for what Alaska Seaplanes has to offer. Welcome Shelby, we’re so glad to have you as part of our team as our new Administrative Assistant!
