A NEW TOLL-FREE NUMBER IS AVAILABLE FOR PILOTS IN ALASKA

1-833-252-7433 (AK-BRIEF)

Previously, some pilots faced difficulties reaching Flight Service when calling 1-800-WX-BRIEF due to network provider issues. The new Alaska-specific number was implemented for easy access and to ensure reliable connectivity. Pilots now have a dedicated phone line to connect with an Alaska Flight Service hub facility.

Alaska's regional hubs-Juneau (JNU), Fairbanks (FAI), and Kenai (ENA)-will continue to operate with their existing toll-free and local numbers. Pilots using the new number can select which hub to call.

We encourage Alaska pilots to begin using the new number for seamless access to Flight Service in Alaska.
