How do I get to Craig?
For most, the easiest way to access Craig is via Ketchikan. Most of you will be flying to Ketchikan with Alaska Airlines. From there, we recommend flying with Island Air to the town of Klawock where the airport for the island is located. There is float plane service to both Craig and Hollis provided by Taquan Air. For those choosing to travel by water, there is the Inter-Island Ferry with services daily between Ketchikan and Hollis. Whichever way you choose to get to Prince of Wales Island one of our staff will be at your chosen destination to bring you to the Lodge.
