Sacramento International Airport (SMF) serves as the region’s primary commercial gateway, functioning more as a mid‑sized international and domestic hub than a low‑cost outpost. It typically hosts legacy carriers and a mix of low‑cost airlines offering connections to the West Coast, inland California, and select national and international routes. Located about 10–15 miles (roughly 20–30 minutes without heavy traffic) north of downtown Sacramento, common ground options include light rail plus shuttle (approx. 30–40 minutes), taxi or rideshare (20–40 minutes; fares vary by provider), and rental cars from on‑site counters. SMF can be convenient and relatively easy to navigate compared with larger airports, though services and late‑night frequencies may be more limited for some international connections.

Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport (ANC) is Alaska’s main international and cargo hub and typically handles both long-haul and regional flights; legacy carriers and cargo operators tend to dominate while some low-cost and regional airlines operate domestic routes. The airport sits about 4–5 miles (roughly 10–15 minutes by road) from downtown Anchorage, reachable by taxi, ride-hailing services, and public bus for modest fares; rental cars are also common for visitors. ANC can be efficient and well-equipped for connections, with strong cargo facilities and basic passenger amenities, but travelers should expect variable waits during peak cargo or seasonal travel and limited late-night services compared with larger continental hubs.
