You could also fly from Anchorage to Valdez or Cordova. For more flexibility, consider renting a car and driving from Anchorage to Whittier, and putting your car on the ferry so you can drive when you reach your destination.. Keep in mind that Cordova is only accessible by air or sea, as there are no roads leading to the town.
