We are celebrating another amazing ATIA Convention sponsor.
What can we say... Alaska Airlines ✈️has been a mainstay in it's support of our association and we are tremendously grateful.
FUN FACT: Alaska Airlines before it was named Alaska Airlines, was a humble Alaska rural air service starting in 1934! That means Alaska Airlines has a 92-year, single continuous corporate identity. They have grown from a frontier bush plane service to an international airline with 342 aircraft serving 128 destinations. AMAZING! 🌠

⏰It's THANK-A-SPONSOR time! Credit Union 1 comes aboard to help us execute our annual tourism convention in October, and for that, we're thankful.
Fun Fact: Credit Union 1 was founded in 1952! That means the credit union is older than the State of Alaska! They only serve Alaska and are committed to our communities! Yay!

We stand in solidarity with the thriving, living native cultures of our vast and beautiful state. Let's all remember that Alaska Native artwork throughout Alaska is an extension of vibrant cultures and cherished ancestors and are to be respected.

Traveling with respect creates space for authentic connections, deeper understanding and more meaningful experiences. 💙

While visiting Alaska, we encourage travelers to learn about and honor the histories, cultures, traditions and artwork of Alaska Native peoples. Thoughtful travel helps protect the places we love and shows respect for the people who have called Alaska home since time immemorial.
