Alaska Seaplanes

Alaska Seaplanes is a commuter airline and charter operator in Southeast Alaska. It has a hub at Juneau International Airport in Juneau, Alaska. The company serves Skagway, Haines, Gustavus, Hoonah, Kake, Klawock, Sitka, Ketchikan, Angoon, Tenakee Springs, and Pelican on a year-round basis.

The company was founded in 1997 by Craig and Aral Loken. In 2011 the Lokens sold it to former Wings of Alaska managers Mike Stedman and Kent Craford. In 2012 the owners bought Air Excursions, a Gustavus based air taxi company. In spring 2013 the two companies combined under the Alaska Seaplanes brand.

The company carries passengers, freight, U.S. mail, and UPS shipments. It offers scheduled flights, charter flights, and tours. The site says custom charters are available throughout Southeast Alaska, Western Canada, and the Pacific Northwest.

The site lists a flight schedule and status page, online booking, and a cargo booking page. It has web cams and a rewards program called Higher Flyer Rewards. Travelers can search for flights, check baggage rules, and read FAQs on the site.

The site says owner Mike Stedman was born and raised in Sitka. He was formerly president and director of operations at Wings of Alaska. He has served on the board of the Alaska Air Carriers Association and on the State's Aviation Advisory Board, and he helped promote the Medallion Foundation safety program.

Stedman is also a shareholder in Taku Aviation Services, a leasing company that holds equipment used by Wings Airways. The site says he led two airlines to earn the Medallion Shield safety standard. The company's team page and careers pages list open pilot positions.
