Fuel is a major portion of the carrier's cost of doing business
and they are susceptible to fluctuating fuel prices, which they
monitor closely, to keep the impact minimized to the shipping
public. You can view the current fuel by viewing our news page. The
fuel surcharge will be shown as a separate entry on the freight
bill and will be applied to all freight charges.&nbsp;

Fuel Surcharge will be adjusted on Monday of each week based on
the Department of Energy Western Region Average Diesel Fuel Index
of last week.

The current Western Region Average Diesel Fuel Index may be
obtained by calling the U.S. Department of Energy @ (202) 586-6966

Alaska is divided into three primary shipping areas: Western
Alaska, Central Alaska and Southeast Alaska.

The largest populated area and major commerce area of Alaska is
Central Alaska commonly referred to as the "railbelt area". Major
cities and commercial areas are Anchorage, Fairbanks, Prudhoe Bay,
Valdez, Wasilla, Kenai, Soldotna, Homer and Seward. Steamship
service from the Port of Tacoma to Anchorage is provided twice per
week for all LTL and TL moving into these markets. From Anchorage,
these markets are all serviceable by road however rail beyond
Anchorage especially to Fairbanks is also available and used on a
regularly scheduled basis.

Western Alaska is served primarily by Barge five months of the
year and by Air beyond Anchorage the remaining seven months of the
year when the Bering Sea is frozen. Primary cities in Western
Alaska are Bethel, Dillingham, Nome, Naknek and Kotzebue. Nome is
also the destination of the famous Iditarod Race held annually from
Anchorage to Nome.

Southeast Alaska, commonly referred to as the Panhandle is
accessible only by water or air. There are no coastal highways so
this area is served weekly by Barge service from Seattle. Primary
cities in addition to the Capital of Juneau, are Ketchikan, Sitka,
Wrangell, Petersburg, Skagway and Haines.

The Island of Kodiak is serviced twice weekly by Steamship and
also has regularly scheduled barge service available.

In addition to Water service to much of Alaska, TL Service over
the road is available on the Alcan Highway to many of Alaska's
major cities in Central Alaska.

Barge Service

Slower, More Economical Service

With proper advance planning, Barge service is available to
Anchorage and Valdez, Alaska. This usually takes 8 to 10 days.
While this service is slower than motor vessel, it may be a cost
effective service alternative for you and your customer. In
addition, weekly Barge service to Southeast Alaska, Juneau and
Ketchikan moves every Thursday, with some summer schedules of twice
per week. Transit time is 4 to 5 days and the only water service
available to Southeast Alaska. There is also supplemental Ferry
service to some points. The Yukon River is also serviced in the
summer months by barge. For more information about Barge service to
Alaska destinations, contact us on the Internet at <a
href="mailto:info@pafak.com">info@pafak.com</a> or Call PAF at
1-800-426-9940.

Equipment

20', 40' and 53' containers and 20', 24' and 40' platforms are
available for moving a variety of cargo to Alaska.

Rates

For Barge service rates, you can submit a rate request on this
Web Site, email our traffic department shown on our <a
href="/for-clients/contacts.aspx" title="Contacts">Web Contacts</a> page, or
call us at 1-800-426-9940.

Rail Service

Rail Barge Service to Alaska is a viable service alternative if
your cargo dimensions or quantity of cargo warrant this service.
Call 1-800-426-9940 if rail service is a transportation mode you
need to move your cargo to Alaska.

Road Service

Another alternative to moving freight on water or by air is to
move it over the road. Because the Steamship Service is 3 to 4 days
to Anchorage and sails Wednesdays and Fridays, early in the week
road departures may be a service alternative you need. More costly
than water, based on day of departure is faster than steamship
service. Pacific Alaska Freightways can meet your service
requirement. Call us at 1-800-426-9940 for transit times and
pricing information.

Air Service

Some shipments must be expedited to meet your service demands.
Pacific Alaska Freightways partners with several air carriers to
provide quality service at a competitive price. Many points in
Alaska are served by air beyond Anchorage. During the winter months
in Alaska, generally November through mid - May, many Alaska points
are only accessible by air beyond Anchorage. Use our <a
href="/for-clients/contacts.aspx" title="Contacts">Contacts</a> Page to
communicate your needs via email or call us toll free at
1-800-426-9940.
