40-Mile Air FAQs
Find quick answers to the most common questions about flying with 40-Mile Air.
What baggage allowance applies to 40-Mile Air scheduled flights?
The scheduled-service page lists 30 lb. This differs from the hunting charter’s 50 lb gear limit. Confirm arrangements when reserving; schedules and prices can change.
Can 40-Mile Air stop at Eagle or Boundary?
The Chicken flight offers flag stops at Eagle and Boundary. Arrange and confirm the specific service with the airline rather than assuming every flight stops.
Does 40-Mile Air’s hunting-gear limit include my backpack and tent?
Yes. The 50 lb total includes backpacks, sleeping bags, tents and waist packs. Waist packs cannot be worn because they interfere with the seat belt.
Can I arrive with excess gear for a 40-Mile Air hunting charter?
Clear excess gear before arrival; otherwise transport may be delayed or unavailable. An extra load is limited to 200 lb and must fit the Super Cub; smaller bags are preferable.
When must I report in Tok for a 40-Mile Air hunting charter?
Be in Tok and checked in the night before the scheduled hunt. Arrange any different arrival time well in advance.
How do I request early pickup from a 40-Mile Air hunting trip?
Agree communications beforehand: InReach is preferred; satellite phone, VHF or an early-out signal are alternatives. Request pickup only when finished and ready when the aircraft arrives.
Why may a 40-Mile Air hunting transfer involve a wait or aircraft change?
Larger aircraft may take you to a staging point before a Super Cub transfer, with waits of several hours. Weather and landing conditions can change order; allow for delays in and out.
Does a phone reservation alone secure my 40-Mile Air hunting dates?
No. The 2026 letter requires deposit and signed contracts within 21 days of the phone reservation, or dates reopen. Confirm final deposit, refund and transfer terms separately.
Should I book the flight or cabin first for a 40-Mile Air lake trip?
Reserve cabin time first through Tetlin Wildlife Refuge, then arrange the flight with 40-Mile Air. A flight booking does not itself reserve the cabin.
Can I bring a wall tent on a 40-Mile Air hunting charter?
No. The 2026 preparation letter asks for self-supporting tents and says wall tents will not be transported. Include the tent within your total gear weight.
