A message from Jon

Welcome to Alaska!

I first came to Alaska as a pilot in 2018 and absolutely fell in love with this state.  Since then I have spent every waking minute experiencing all that Alaska has to offer, and helping others to do the same.

From hunting and fishing, to skiing and sightseeing, you truly can spend an entire lifetime here and not see everything this incredible place has to offer.  Finding exactly where to go and what to do when you first come to Alaska can be difficult, and that is why I'd like to invite you to call me directly and I promise to do my best to help you plan the adventure of a lifetime!

Testimonials

Give up something. To get something.. I am not wealthy... But I wanted to stay in this plane on my Alaska adventure, for my 50th state! I felt it was very symbolic for travel.. I can't say enough good things about this property... The massage chair was much needed after a hike... The views brought me a rainbow... The northern lights popped out To say hello... I went into town to get food from Basil Ginger For takeout... I ate it on the duck with the wonderful fire pit.... John was very responsive.... And the extra touches we're amazing.. Just do it!!!!! Book IT!!!

Staying at Jon's airplane Airbnb was an incredible experience! The airplane itself is situated right on a small runway that occasionally sees small bush planes, making it a dream for aviation enthusiasts. Even if you're not particularly into aviation, the stay is well worth it. The place was clean, comfortable, and truly unique. Jon went above and beyond to make our stay special—he even brought us a bottle of wine after we had a flight delay, which really helped to turn things around. I would absolutely recommend this Airbnb to anyone looking for a one-of-a-kind stay with beautiful veiws of the Alaska mountains Whether you're into aviation or just looking for something different, this is a great choice.
