McGrath Airport's 5,936 ft of runway is shorter than most of the 56 jet-capable fields in Alaska, close to sea level, so the published runway figure is close to what an aircraft actually needs here. 21 of the 24 types we broker clear it; the runway rules out 3. The nearest city we publish corridors for is Bozeman, 2,084 miles away.

Access

Getting here

Straight-line distances from the cities we publish, with a typical aircraft's block time including taxi, climb and descent.

From-prices are one way and all-in — operator price, our fee and federal excise tax — for the smallest cabin suited to the distance, indicative rather than quoted.

Runway

What can operate here

Compared against the published balanced field length of every type we broker, with roughly 3% added per 1,000 ft of elevation for density altitude.

This is runway length only. Individual airports also restrict by wingspan, noise curfew, slot availability and special approach certification, and performance moves with temperature, weight and the day. Clearing the runway here means an aircraft is worth asking about — the operator confirms it, and signs for it.
