Known as the salmon capital of the world, Ketchikan draws visitors for fishing, sightseeing, and access to the scenic Inside Passage. Helicopters make it possible to reach remote fishing grounds, explore rugged wilderness from above, and provide safe, efficient transport when ground access is limited.

Beyond tourism, helicopters serve vital roles in Ketchikan’s daily operations. They assist with cruise ship evacuations, deliver rapid response during storms, and support logging operations with standing stem methods that reduce environmental impact. Helicopters are also relied upon for utility surveys, power line installation, and critical rescue missions in the surrounding forests and mountains.

Fair Lifts partners with trusted operators in Southeast Alaska to deliver these services with precision, safety, and reliability. Whatever the task may be, from outdoor recreation to emergency support, our team ensures you have access to the right helicopter solution when you need it most.
