Best Answer

Alaska has an ecellent Marine Highway System it simply doesn't go everywhere and it doesn't meet every whim that a specific traveler may require. Small aircraft and the fabled Bush Pilot is still the choice for many. The distances to some locations and the difficult terrain has made road construction cost prohibitive so don't expect to just hop into the family chariot for a weekend jaunt. Travel within Alaska requires planning and at least some patience.
