New Toll-Free Number for Alaska Pilots
New Toll-Free Number for Alaska Pilots A new toll-free number is available for pilots in Alaska. Pilots can now call 1-(833) 252-7433 (AK-Brief) to connect with an Alaska Flight Service hub facility. Previously, some pilots faced difficulties reaching Flight Service when calling 1-800-WX-BRIEF due to network provider issues. The new Alaska-specific number was implemented for easy access and to ensure reliable connectivity. Alaska’s regional hubs — Juneau (JNU), Fairbanks (FAI), and Kenai (ENA) — will continue to operate with their existing toll-free and local numbers.
