Travel 2025

I'm leaving this open but will add as I go along.

2025 is tricky... will there be some kind of government shut down affecting travel or will Tsar Vladimir and Dictator Donald make holders of american passports vulnerable to being persona-non-grata? Emperor Xi is a wild card.

Me personally...

1. multiple short trips versus a couple longer trips?
2. visit old friends and places I've missed.
3. make a list of places I haven't been to / experiences I haven't had.

Anyhoo:

Costa Rica (Central or south America)
Morocco (and SW Europe or Afica)
Thailand (SE Asia)
USA (Alaska, Kentucky, North-East)

Alaska:

Inland ferry (cheaper than a cruise) or fly? Possible destinations: Sitka, Petersburg, Fairbanks.

SIT (Sitka) as cheap as $197 one-way but stops in Juneau or Ketchikan and possible overnight in Seattle?
KTN (Ketchikan) 7 hours and $263 one-way.
JNU (Juneau) $233 and 5 hours.

JNU - SIT $109
JNU - KTN $143
KTN - SIT $183 direct; $113 through JNU (2 1/2 hours) SIT - KTN is similar.

JNU - FAI $285 thru ANC (5 hours)
JNU - ANC $181 direct
JNU - ANC (through YAK (Yakutak) and CDV (Cordova) $176 4+ hours.

ANC - FAI $112 direct
