KINY Juneau, Alaska (KINY) - Alaska Seaplanes launched its maiden roundtrip flight between Juneau and Petersburg Monday.
Klas Stolpe of News of the North went along for the trip and spoke with General Manager Carl Ramseth and asked why they decided to add the Juneau to Petersburg route. He said Petersburg has been on their radar for a few years and with the downturn in air traffic with the pandemic, it was a good time to include Petersburg in their route system. He said it s the first time in over 20 years that there s been a direct air connection between Juneau and Petersburg.
