Golden Era Aviation

Golden Era Aviation runs vintage flight tours in Alaska with two Douglas DC-3 aircraft. The company is based at Palmer Airport, a short drive from Anchorage. The site gives the address as 301 S. Palmer Airport Road, Palmer, Alaska 99645. The site describes the tours as 1940s style Alaskan adventure flights.

The site says the company was started by two pilots, TJ and Nico. Both had commercial freight hauling backgrounds in Alaska. They saw views while shuttling cargo that they wanted to share with others. The site says they started the business with friends and family and a love of vintage aircraft. The DC-3 was chosen because it is one of the most iconic aircraft ever built.

The flightseeing tours pass over the Knik River Valley, Lake George, the Chugach Mountains and the Matanuska Valley. Flight attendants wear period 1940s style uniforms. Each passenger receives a personalized vintage airline ticket as a keepsake. The site says the tours are based on the Douglas DC-3 experience.

The site lists special events. These include anniversaries, weddings, photoshoots and other occasions. It also offers a skydive from a DC-3, and the company installs a jump door for the flight. The company's aircraft are parked on the tarmac between the Mat-Su Forestry Division and Fish Creek Airmotive.

The contact phone number is (907) 215-2332. The site has pages for tours, aircraft and experiences, a booking option, terms and conditions, and a return policy. The company is on Facebook, Instagram and LinkedIn. The site also has a newsletter sign up for news and offers.
