AD PLACEMENT — CONTEXTUAL
Ravn Alaska flights are frequently delayed or cancelled due to weather, so build in extra buffer regardless of official minimum connection times.
There is no formal jet bridge or security checkpoint separation, so once you're in the terminal you're essentially already at your gate.
Bag transfers are handled manually by ground staff, so confirm your checked luggage will make a tight connection.
Check in early since the small staff and single counter can create bottlenecks during busy morning and afternoon banks.
There are very limited food and restroom facilities, so plan accordingly if your layover is long.

Low risk
Moderate
High risk
Tight connections are safer outside peak hours. Morning rush (6–9a), midday (11a–2p), and evening (4–8p) are highest risk.
There is a single small terminal building with one gate area, so all passengers walk a few steps from the waiting area to the tarmac to board. No trains, shuttles, or inter-terminal transfers exist because there is only one terminal and one apron.
