AKP009: The Real Frozen Tundra One could easily argue that football is the most popular high school sport and it is the same in Alaska. Barrow, AK is home to the northernmost football field in the world. Named ‘The Real Frozen Tundra’ by ESPN, Barrow is home to the Whalers. Barrow has contracted WWAK for air service for their football program. WWAK is responsible for bringing the visiting teams in and getting the Whalers to their away games. A team size is about 50 people (players, coaches, support personnel), so a Dash 8-300 or Dash 8-Q400 is required for transporting the teams. If there is a group of fans wanting to travel, a smaller prop aircraft can be used to transport them. The Barrow hub will have the information about possible fan transportation. Since the Barrow football program was featured on ESPN, diehard football fans from around the US have come to Barrow to experience football in its most primitive means. Each week of Barrow home games, fans fly into Anchorage and need transportation to Barrow. Barrow HS has contracted WWAK to provide this transportation also. Since these fans are well off financially, we provide jet service from PANC to Barrow. Any charter jet, CRJ-200 or smaller, can be used. The number of passengers will determine which aircraft you use. This contract only covers the Barrow home games. The ESPN story on Barrow football can be found here Aircraft: Team transport: Dash 8-300 or Q400 Local fan transport: any Cat II executive prop plane Outside fans: any CRJ-200 or smaller executive jet aircraft Schedule: 8/11 Barrow @ Monroe Catholic - Fly team to Fairbanks Intl Airport 9/01 Valdez @ Barrow - Pick up team at Valdez Airport 9/08 Seward @ Barrow - Pick up team at Seward Airport 9/15 Sitka @ Barrow - Fly team to Sitka Airport 9/22 Barrow @ Eielson - Fly team to Eielson AFB (special arrangements have been made for permission to land on Eielson AFB), arrive by 1030 local time 9/30 Barrow @ Nikiski - Fly team to Kenai Municiple, arrive by 1400 local time The games in Barrow are played early afternoon, so visiting team must be on the ground by 1030 local time.
