JS EWR or PHL to ANC

I'm in a bind and need to get to ANC via JS on Sunday 18Mar. Does UPS have a day departure with a reasonable connect or better, non stop, Sunday's to ANC? If So, could you also forward the # for booking.

Thanks,

That being said, the plane is usually loaded early in PHL and the crew can block out 15 minutes early (or earlier with permission from Mom) and they'll typically block in early. If PHL could print the jumpseat pass for SDF ANC, you can have it in hand and go directly to the ANC plane upon landing. If the stars align, it could happen.

Otherwise the next SDF ANC leaves at 2200Z.

Sorry we can't be more helpful, weekends are a very slim schedule for us.

Thanks for the info. Our connect is over 12 hours and arrives in the middle of the night. I'll look at yours and see if it works.

Thanks again. Your 2200Z departure out of SDF to ANC has me intrigued. I'm looking to see how to get to SDF on a "real"

airline in the mid afternoon. Nothing non stop from EWR. I'll figure something or just spend Co money I don't have enough of and JS something else later in the month. I'm getting too old for this sh** !
