2010年5月底-6月初和朋友一起去阿拉斯加自驾游。用国航机票换了北京-旧金山往返机票，在阿拉斯加航空公司网站购买了旧金山-阿拉斯加的往返机票（经停波特兰-免税州，去奥特莱斯购物)， 阿拉斯加也是免税的州
之前读了很多游记，对我非常有帮助的几点：
1。 去阿拉斯加建议购买Alaska Saver's Coupon (会省很多钱，酒店多为买一晚赠一晚，一些游览项目是买一人赠一人，但是要定的早）
2。 我是5月底，6月初去的，赶在阿拉斯加邮轮的旺季开始之前，人不会非常多
3。 如果在非旺季去阿拉斯加，而且选择自驾游览，如果行程中有涉及水路的地方，在制定路线之前关注一下轮船的时间，非旺季时不是天天开船，所以可能驾车行驶会绕路，不过景色还是不错的
4。 去Denali国家森林公园可以考虑提前在网上订票，票和乘坐游览车的出发时间有保证
