Ground Transportation
Taxis
Taxi and shuttle services in Yakutat are very limited and must be arranged in advance. There are no taxi stands at the airport. Services are typically provided by local lodges for their guests or by a small number of local operators. It is essential to book your transportation before you arrive.
Rental Cars
There are no major car rental chains at Yakutat Airport. A local company, Yakutat Auto Rentals, offers a small fleet of vehicles, primarily trucks and SUVs suitable for local road conditions. Some lodges may also have vehicles available for rent to their guests. Due to extremely limited availability, booking a rental car far in advance is critical, especially during the busy summer season.
Public Transportation
There is no public bus or transit system serving Yakutat or its airport. The primary means of getting around without a personal vehicle is through pre-arranged lodge shuttles, a pre-booked taxi, or a rental car.
