Is FedEx no longer operating ANC-EWR?
 
I'm searching for the nonstop between ANC and EWR on the ALPA JS finder page to no avail.

Has this flight been eliminated?

Any idea how many less block hours you guys are now flying compared to a year ago?

Glad I never decided to bid ANC :)

Best trips in the system, all single departure. The trouble is getting there.

I recommend VX's seasonal ANC service from SFO. You depart 12:50 am arrive SFO at 6:25am, and then you can connect on the VX morning flight to EWR or take any of 16 daily EWR flights on United. VX's seasonal ANC service ends early September, and it currently runs 6 days a week. The nightly Tuesday flight SFO-ANC doesn't operate, and it's respective Wednesday morning return doesn't operate. From what I've seen so far, our ANC loads are very commutable.

Wow! Serious bummer! That was the best kept secret going. My best flying experience to date was snoozing in the back of a brand new 777 in a bunk on the way to ANC. It was like commuting to work in a hotel room.

Not to mention everyone in the company treats you like a first class passenger.
