Flying the FULL Alaska Milk Run! Anchorage to Seattle w/6 STOPS!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 25 авг 2024
- Hey guys! Welcome to my last video of this disastrous year of 2020 and probably also the biggest video of the year at the same time...the full Alaska Milk Run experience! This route covers Anchorage, Cordova, Yakutat, Juneau, Petersburg, Wrangell, Ketchikan, and Seattle onboard an Alaska Airlines' B737-900ER & B737-700. I wanted to do something special for this very special route and decided to change it up a bit from my usual format, adding a bunch of montages and voiceovers as well as condense the footage down as much as possible. Let me know what you think! (full flight videos aren't going anywhere!) As you can see in the video, I think I make it quite apparent how truly awesome this milk run is. It not only plays a vital and important role for each of the towns I visited on the route, but also is a huge treat for aviation enthusiasts and is used to transport people into these places to fish, hike, canoe, kayak, and enjoy what the Last Frontier has to offer. Alaska is definitely one of my favorite places now after this trip and I will definitely be back. I also got to visit Mendenhall Glacier and Nugget Falls in Juneau which was an extra special experience for me. I love cold, remote places so this was just so sweet for me. I hope this video will be for you too and I hope you enjoy!

Hope you guys enjoy this last video of 2020 and here's to hoping 2021 is MUCH better!
I certainly hope 2021 will be a better year. I seriously wish nothing but the best for you, AKA one of my favorite RUclipsrs of all time. I want to wish you and your family a happy New Year.
One day the fireworks will come!!!
4:14 what u mean ? U can't say?

34:45 to 34:55 - as great as it looks out there, the beautiful scenery, mountains, alpine forrests, clear crystal lakes and rivers, and the huge open country, there's only one issue with how it is around there and within most of the rural areas of the Milk Run:
It's bear country, grizzly bear country, bears, bears, and more bears
Thank you for acknowledging the fact that the Alaska Airlines Milk Run is the lifeline for residents in communities along the route.
Thoroughly enjoy this video my friend. Super editing as always and the detailed commentary. Nice to hear your voice and accent too. Keep up the good work and thank you for all your efforts in your superb YT aviation channel.
You do some crazy things for us....and we all love you for it. Thanks for taking us along 😀
Update! You don't know how glad I am that you're uploading a separate video of each of these. The longer the better. Thank you very, very much. That made my day.
I love this video and plan to experience the northern half of the Milk Run in a few days. I think Alaska is especially gorgeous in the summer when the weather is warm and the Midnight Sun never fully sets in some areas. Plus, the return flight to Seattle, descending in between mountain ranges, over the Strait of Juan de Fuca and over the islands shows the incredible beauty of the Pacific Northwest. I agree that Alaska Airlines flight crews are consistently a few notches above average.
All of your videos have truly been amazing, but this was the best video I ever seen. Words can't even begin to describe how well-done this video was. The amount of effort you put into this video along with your optimistism masks a mastermind put into the videos that brings me joy. Keep up the excellent work. I think you should get rewarded for such effort. I am so proud of you.
im here
I agree with everything you typed!
@@ryanfrisby7389 Thank you. He is so amazing. I can't believe my eyes.
Wow what a comment haha thank you!
@@thejazzguy13 You are welcome. A special RUclipsr like you certainly earns you a special comment like me. You always make my day.
Wow Chris! The best Milk Run video! Amazing edition, footage, music! In fact everything was awesome!! Thank you so much for let us being part of this amazing experience of yours! I wish you a spectacular new year full of trips and flights! Hope you can come to Puerto Rico soon!
Hi Chris I have always enjoyed your videos. Thanks for adding audio commentary. It really enhances them!
Hey Chris/Jazzguy! :) I thoroughly enjoyed this video! The Alaska Milk Run is perhaps your best just because of your voice narration! Perfect! I know a lot of work, video editing, went into this masterpiece. For that, I thank you very much! Such beautiful countryside scenery of Alaska! I've never been there so this was certainly a treat and adventure for this viewer! Happy New Year and hopefully 2021 will be much better! Take care and as always, thanks very much for all you do! Ricky :)
I just watched this and absolutely love every minute of it. Really enjoyed your voiceover, all of the comments, the scenery was wonderful. I wish you very happy travels in 2021.
Hi, I am Thai People from Thailand. My Thai Friend arrived at Anchorage last 2 days. His family stay near street 100 in Anchorage. Thank You for your Video.
Wow what a trip! The pilot hardly has time for the auto pilot setting. Stunning scenery.
Loved this "milk run" vlog. Great scenery shots, of the glaciers and such. Amazing how a lot of ice (and glacier melt) can create an awesome landscape. Glad AS is doing this milk run to connect the small coastal communities of Alaska. Agree with the other folks - it was good to hear your voice.
Cheers.....
It's nice hearing your voice. this is very interesting & educational.
Wow Chris, this was absolutely amazing! I can’t wait to see what 2021 will bring for your channel, but I’m sure it will be excellent just like every other year!😸😻😸
I really enjoyed this “milk run”. I enjoyed flying with you from Anchorage to Seattle. I have a friend who works and lives in Ketchikan. Now I can see what she is talking about. Thank you.
Love the videos, keep up the good work man!
YYYYYAAAAASSSSSSSS FINALLY DUDE I LOVE YOUR VIDS AND I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOREVER FOR THIS!!!!!!! Love you man
lol I am still watching his videos and I am a huge av geek
Very awesome! I watched this entire documentary. I love to go fishing, it’s one of my favorite outdoor hobbies. It is one reason I would go to Alaska and I would also like to try this milk run in the future. Happy New Year!
Thank you for this amazing video. I watched each leg as I flew it on Flight Simulator. Excellent!
What a treat! You were very fortunate to have such beautiful weather for your journey. I remember many times flying throughout SE Alaska that you could not even see the tops of the mountains. In the past, beverage service was available out of each station except for the Petersburg/Wrangell segment and a very delicious snack was served between Cordova and Yakutat with a hot meal out of Juneau/Sitka or Ketchikan depending on which milk-run flight you took on to Seattle. One of the snacks I will never forget was a tray of finger sandwiches that you could select from and one was a dark Russian bread with a pineapple/cream cheese filling that was fantastic. You even got to pick out a wedge of cheese and cherry tomato while sipping a scotch and water but those days are long gone!!! Thanks for the memories!
Was waiting for this one. Love your channel man. I think I’ve seen every video. Keep it up.
For some reason, the music while landing at Seattle makes me fill like your my friend and we on that flight together. Don’t mind the profile I am Kamari mullings, I don’t know how to change it lol. Your videos are AMAZING!
I am amazed of so many interesting cities you have travelled.
YEAH!! THE VOICE
I can't believe that flight attendant was just cursing on arrival. Good thing you bleeped it out. 🤣
I was up in Alaska/ anchorage at this time. I love these videos.
I' m an aviation lover✈ like you.
Your videos are very professional and I think this one, it' s one of the best: "Alaska, the final frontier".
The Voice Over, made the difference
Congrats!👍
Greetings from the Dominican Republic🤗
I think this is my favorite of your videos I've watched so far, great job.
Amazing video! I LOVE the voiceover, I think you can give more info in a shorter amount of time and it personally kept me WAY more interested! I've also been to Mendenhall glacier on a Disney cruise and its awesome just like you said! I definitely want to try the milk run one day after watching this!
They say Alaskan air line is a very good airline, looks like you will have a good trip.
Fantastic stuff. Been enjoying all of your videos. Thank you.
Such an amazing trip report and your style of presenting is so good. Awesome work and I really enjoy all of your flight reports a lot. I work in the aviation industry myself as an FA in Europe and your trip reports help me to see what we as crew can do better. You really have a great talent to make this reports. I’m always looking forward to the next one. And like today, rewatching some older ones. Thanks a lot!
Great video! Definitely a once in a lifetime experience. Keep up the great work.
Without a doubt, one of the best Av videos. I watched twice!
This is an awesome video! The scenery is amazing! Thanks for sharing!!!
I have already flown the United island hopper and I have to say it was so amazing. Er had luck because it was the captains last flight and at all airports we landed on, we got a water salute. We always flew a circle around the islands before we landed, instead of doing a direct approach. At Guam airport the captain decided to do a go around before we experienced his last landing. He used the whole runway and we deplaning we even got the chance to do a photo with him.
Awesome. Thank you. Happy Tuesday.
Truly magical, dude. Thanks and keep it up!!!
Terrific video! Terrific trip you had on the milk run on Alaska!
You do such a beautiful job. I love your voiceovers . I’m not interested in traveling due to what for me is inconvenience; however, through you I get to enjoy as though I were doing it myself. Thanks so very much.
This is fantastic mate, I now have a great idea for a northbound cruise + milk run back south! Greetings from New Zealand..
Alaska in the mainland: hip airline connecting the west coast with friendly service.
Alaska in its namesake state: an essential lifeline
I stumbled across this video by pure accident! I'm glad I did because I really enjoyed every minute of it, stunning scenery and perfect for the aviation fan too. Awesome filming great stuff 👍👍
BEAUTIFUL..I LEAVE IN BC. WILL LOVE TO DO THIS. THE VIEW----AMAZINZ.
I did this run in 2019 and I do agree that it really opens your eye on the state itself
I like this video very much very awesome love seeing the beautiful places in Alaska
Thank you for showing us so many fishing towns of Alaska! Next is Silver Airways return to Jacksonville.
Love the video talking comments! Thank you!
Fantastic video. I've put Juneau on my travel wish list after seeing your visit to the glacier and falls.
This was great. Thanks for the voiceover. I love Alaska.
Alaska. The last frontier
----------------------------------------
Great clip again. Wonderful mountains. So nice to watch. Especially for me it would be nice to go there as i really love bears. Yes i do. Happy new year to you and lots of flights.
Wow what a video!! I love all your videos, you do such a great job on all videos, from start to finish, but this video, its a wow, so thankful you share. That was amazing. Don't mind the voiceover. Thanks for all your sharing. Can't wait to see more in 2021 and Happy New Year.
Love the talking!
This video is long, but the scenery from the air is worth it.
I hope to get up to Alaska one day but right now your video is very informative 😀
Nicely done. Happy New Year!
Terrific video! Nice narration, nice captures.
at 51:00 speaking of max filled takeoffs Chicago Midway is like that before levelling off when headed west due to Chicago O'Hare traffic then speeding up more then leveling off at a certain altitude before climbing again
Aloha from Hawai'i! I hope that someday you'll get to fly the Micronesian island hopper. I first flew it in 1976, and dozens of times since (last in 2019). Every flight was an adventure. This video seems eerily familiar to the island hopper, though with much shorter hops. Well done.
i LOVE the Hubert's Lemonade, too!
This is gonna be a great video
I can't believe 36,0000 is only 10 miles from the ground, so little.
*10km
Nice to hear your voice bro! LOVE THIS VIDEO I will be going on the milk run too!
Excellent video kiddo! In my Advanced ESL book, there is a unit that mentions a glacier - since we live in a tropical country it was a little hard to explain that to the students (I've been to the Nothern Hemisphere but never to a glacier), so, explaining is a time-consuming task. I got a print of your video showing the Sheridan Glacier and I'm going to use it on a ppt slide - as they say, a picture paints a thousand words! Thanks for sharing and have a great 2021!
i sure miss flying alaska.spent 3 mon in anc 2017 3 mon in ktn 2018 and 3 mon in ktn 2019,coming home dec 4 to mci in missouri.alaska air,yup i heard of milk run.sure miss those trips,that was last flight
Amazing video! You are a natural narrator 😄
Great day for a 6 stop hop. Can you imagine if there was turbulence , the time you want smooth air when your taking off an landing so much. Plus is mountains and your not getting too high there’s got to turbulence there at times
Epic journey!
Your vids are so much better now that you narrate them....so your job is you just fly around the world for YT? LOL> What a life! AT any rate, the scenery over Alaska was almost too much to take in....Pure beauty.
Have a great New Years day!!!!
THANK YOU. GOOD LUCK.
Wow, and you were there just after the summer solstice! I have a friend who has a Guide Dog in Anchorage.
Happy New Year, Chris.
A window seat would be a must!
My dad was a mechanic for Alaska Airlines in Juneau AK till retired in 94.I was a baggage handler in Juneau before joining the U.S.Coast Guard.Flew to all those towns,played sports in southeast ak,lived in Sitka and Ketchikan also.Mostly Kodiak Island AK
I really enjoyed Barrow!! New viewer here. Love your journey and now in Anchorage.. A place I've always wanted to go. Thanks guy!!
happy New Year to you and everyone
Thanks brother wish I could have took that trip with you.
I see you're doing voice over narrating for this video. I love it!
Nice! Have you done the Pacific Islands "milk run" yet (Honolulu to Guam via several of the Mariana Islands)?
Not yet but I'd love to when everything's back to normal!
Oh yeah! Alaska!
Thank you for the narrative
LOVE YOUR ADVENTURE.
I flew for ACE air cargo a few years back. I would always try to get the milk run as it had the best views in AK. We’d also fly out to Dutch Harbor which had amazing views. I miss it. Enjoyed watching your video thank you.
Amazing video and editing...thank you!
Fantastic documentary Chris 👍
Hi this is a great video and Alaska is awesome
The resident brown and kodiak bears gave the jalapeno popcorn recipe to the citizens and visitors to Alaska!
Amazing video and amazing crew! How nice to meet a crew who don’t mind you filming the experience rather than FA Karens!
That was great!!!!
Hey, you should try the United Island hopper
i really like the voice over:) nice video as always
Outstanding video Alaska is on my bucket list I live in New Zealand and with the present "you know what" it maybe a while. I watch a 24/7 webcam located at the ANC seaplane base with views of the lake and the main Airport mainly the Cargo ramp. At present the lake is frozen over so rather than floatplanes we see ski planes. Just subscribed this video popped up on my recommended list Thanks
I love those airports with no taxiway and have to backtracking at the end of the runway
I really like the narrated video. :-)
Dang this video is long! Great one though. Happy New Year!
Haha I know and I condensed it as much as I could :D Happy New Year too!
Amazing video! Thank you!
Aspiring FA, and Seattle native here. I'd love to work for Alaska one day. Currently residing in Dallas, and I definitely miss the scenery in the PNW! 🌲🏔🌊 #gohawks 💙💚
