Juneau International Airport

Juneau, United States

Where to start
Taxi from the terminal, or a hotel transfer; Uber and Lyft when drivers are available

Juneau International Airport is in the Mendenhall Valley, north-west of downtown Juneau and the cruise docks. Taxis serve the terminal and can be booked ahead. Uber and Lyft operate, but drivers are few. Capital Transit's Route 6 Airport Connector is suspended, so the nearest buses — Routes 3 and 4 — stop on Glacier Highway, about a 0.4-mile walk along Shell Simmons Drive.
