FCVB Tourism Director Colin Lawrence was recently on a joint mission with Alaska Travel Industry Association representative Jesse Carlstrom promoting Alaska travel in China. New regulations will make it easier and less expensive for the Chinese to travel in the United States, and Alaska is already preparing to receive them. Jesse can be seen in this report from CCVT in China explaining how tourism companies in our state are equipped to meet the demand.

Welcome: Fairbanks International Airport

The Fairbanks Convention and Visitors Bureau has a new and more prominent place to welcome visitors at the recently renovated Fairbanks International Airport terminal. Our “Welcome to Fairbanks” kiosk will be one of the first things you see as you get off your flight. Friendly Golden Heart Greeters or Visitor Information Specialists will often be on hand to give a word of welcome, answer a question, or direct you to the brochure, map or other piece of material you need to make your visit more comfortable and fun.
