You’re going to be very disappointed IMO. Anchorage or Juneau are much better options.

Going to Fairbanks / Denali. EDIT: at end of Sept., after 5 days in Anchorage.

Any particular reason you’re going to Fairbanks? There isn’t much there

Really to see Denali. And our flight home leaves from there.

Chances of the seeing the lights this time of year are really low.

I lived there for 4 years and October was when you had a “good” chance

Agreed it’s not prime time, but I’ve seen decent aurora there in August

We spent a night in Talkeetna here and did a Denali flight from there.

I have to admit that Seward and the drive from Anchorage down was our favorite.

Yeah, go to Anchorage instead. (This is 6+ hours away from Fairbanks)

I did that last month. That drive is amazing photos don’t do it justice.

I’d do none in Fairbanks and add 3 to Anchorage/Kenai peninsula
