ANC private room for rent next to airport

Hi everyone,

not sure if this is the right place to post but I’ll give it a shot. UPS pilot here looking for a private room not too far from the airport. I tried the ads in the pilot lounge in ops but they are old and the rooms have been taken already. If anyone has any info to share, that would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Many trip-trades get denied so they don’t have a choice. At $119 per night they would end up with a VERY expensive crashpad.

To the OP - JR is right, a post on B & G might be your best bet.

Thanks for the Bar’n grill suggestion. Just posted a message there. As far as being used on reserve, I can confirm i can spend up to 6 nights per month in ANC making the Marriott a bit pricey for my 1st year pay!😉

If you are going to be up there long term, we weren’t, then you will definitely need a crash pad until you have some seniority.
