I'm already 2nd guessing our plans

Every time I think I'm okay with the times of our plane excursions, I read another fog warning. :confused:

 

We are booked on the Misty Fjord flightseeing tour at 8am, & the helicopter/dog sled excursion in Juneau at 9:15am. Should I reschedule both of these for after 10:30 or 11am. How much would that increase our chances? The dog sled tour is the one we most want to do & while I know there are no guarantees, I do want to give us the best chance possible. We are willing to create a schedule around the flights. So for those of you who have been there & done that, what do you think for mid June? TIA :)

You are asking questions that can't be answered. Did you inquire of the vender what their stats were last year?? Still no prediction what this year will be. :) I have had several flights canceled on me, always have back up plans, you can't control Alaska weather and hope for the best.

If it is any help at all, I did my flightseeing tour with Michelle of Island Wings early June of last year at 8am and we had a perfect trip. It was clear for us and then later that morning it started to fog up and rain a bit after we returned. I guess my point is that you can't really plan to try and avoid the weather, because it can change on you quite suddenly, especially in Alaska.

 

Have a great trip.

mrr210,

You only replied to rub it in, didn't you? :p

 

Seriously, thanks for the info. I'm going to try to stick with what I have, & hopefully not worry about it. I'm this way with any trip we take. Even though I know that I have no control over certain aspects of our trip, I still keep trying to plan the perfect vacation. I think I may need therapy. :eek:

OK, tarheelmjfan, I just have to ask---are you in NC? Are you just sick over last night's performance? Well just thought I would say Hi from one TARHEELfan to another!

Actually, I live in Tampa, FL, but grew up in NC. Sick, is an understatement! :( My sister & nephew who do live in NC are Duke fans, so I'm not even answering my phone today. :p Oh well, as I always tell my nephew after a Heels loss, let's talk again in March. :D

Start answering the phone---did you see Duke lose last night? They really looked terrible!

Saw it & loved it! :D I tape all of Carolina's games, & I've watched it 3 times already. :p I think Rashad & Jawad need to get in the gym, & spend some extra time shooting. :eek:
