Whats wrong with actually going outside the USA? I heard G Dubbya
even did it once, although I believe he didnt understand why he needed
a VISA when he had an AMEX..

Lets keep this simple...I DO NOT want to leave the USA...that is why I ask
for help in finding a flight that begins in the USA and ends in the
USA.....and I DO NOT appreciate anyone turning this into a political arena.
THANK YOU!!

I'd look for flights between Asia and the midwest or east coast making
stops in Anchorage or Fairbanks, and book the leg between Alaska and the
lower 48. I presume you're not limiting yourself to US carriers with
whatever is restraining you from leaving the US? If not, look for
extensions of foreign flights from east or west coast points of entry to
internal destinations. E.g., Tokyo - San Francisco - Chicago. (Not that
I know whether that route is flown - just made it up as an example.)

I live in Anchorage, and I don't believe that any passenger airlines fly
747's into here anymore. The opening of Russian airspace and aircraft with
longer range have made a stop in AK not necessary. The cargo planes still
come in, but AFAIK, the passenger 747's do not.

A shame - it must make the planespotting so much less rewarding. I
remembered NW use to stop in Anchorage or Fairbanks heading west
sometimes in winter because of the winds, but I couldn't find any such
flights when I checked their schedules recently.

Touchy! It wasnt meant to be political. Down my neck of the woods,
ridiculing politicians isnt being political, it is more of a sport.
They get dangerous if you hold them in too high esteem.

I probably wouldn't feel so bad about that ( what rhymes with idiot, oh yea,
idiot) Idiot if he would give me a ride in that 747 that we all own and gets
to jump around anywhere he wants to go in.
