Search flights from KPV to AKN
Mount Veniaminof
One of Alaska's most active and massive volcanoes, featuring a glacier-filled caldera over 5 miles wide.
Aniakchak National Monument
A glimpse into one of the most remote volcanic calderas in the world, known for its unique 'Surprise Lake'.
Aleutian Range
Continuous views of the jagged, snow-capped peaks that form the backbone of the Alaska Peninsula.
Becharof Lake
The second largest lake in Alaska, nestled against the mountains as you approach King Salmon.
Mount Peulik
A perfectly shaped stratovolcano located on the shores of Becharof Lake, visible just before descent.
The right side is the 'volcano side'. For the most dramatic lighting on the peaks, choose an afternoon flight when the sun is to the west. Bring a camera with a fast shutter speed to capture the crater details through potential cloud gaps. Mount Veniaminof is the absolute highlight shortly after takeoff from Perryville.

Bristol Bay Coastline
Dramatic views of the rugged Bering Sea coastline where the tundra meets the silt-rich waters.
Port Heiden
The remote settlement of Port Heiden and its surrounding coastal lagoons are visible during the mid-flight segment.
Coastal Tundra
The vast, treeless expanse of the Alaska Peninsula National Wildlife Refuge stretching toward the horizon.
Ugashik River Delta
Intricate braided river systems and wetlands that serve as critical habitats for local salmon runs.
Sit on the left for expansive views of Bristol Bay. Morning flights provide soft, front-lit views of the coastline. This side is often better for spotting seasonal ice floes in late winter or early spring near the shore.
