When it comes to unforgettable getaways, Alaska Rewards searches high and low for the best mini-vacations we can find. Then we get discounts that are truly awe-inspiring. With this week’s Alaska Escape you get 2 round trip tickets from Anchorage to Valdez on Grant Aviation. You also get 2 nights accommodation at the Best Western Valdez Harbor Inn, and shuttle service from the airport to the hotel. This package would cost  you $816 if you went out and bought the vacation without Alaska Rewards. We worked overtime and got the whole package down to just $325! That’s a 60% discount off the rack rate. You also have till May 14th, 2011 to use your package!
Once you check into the Anchorage terminal of Grant Aviation you can sit back and relax. As an Alaskan-owned and operated airline, Grant Aviation has been transporting passengers all over Alaska since 1971. Not to put it lightly, but your in good hands with Grant Aviation.
Valdez is one of the best places to stay in Alaska during the winter months with its plethora of winter activities. The Best Western Valdez Harbor Inn, is offering a two-night stay for two in a standard room. The hotel overlooks the Valdez boat harbor on three sides. They are only steps from local gift shops, Valdez Visitor Center, Valdez Museum, Whitney Museum and the Annex Museum that displays the old town Valdez before the 1964 earthquake.
The surrounding Chugach mountains receive between 600-900 inches of fresh powder each year. Helicopter and snowcat skiing and snowboarding are the best in the world ranging from intermediate to extreme. Backcountry, telemark and cross country skiing provide more options. Snowmobiling near Valdez is also a world class experience with endless peaks, valleys and glaciers to explore. Cold temperatures serve to freeze waterfalls around Valdez, providing unparalleled ice climbing opportunities.
No matter how you decide to spend your weekend, Valdez has got you covered, but if you snooze, you loose on this Alaska Escape.
