Sheldon Air Service

"I've flown with Sheldon Air Services several times now, and every single flight has been absolutely amazing. The pilots are top-notch, the staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming, and the whole experience—from the moment you step into the hangar—is something special." -N.F.H

Private Charters and Air Taxi Services

Our private charter and air taxi flights are customized, point-to-point journeys designed to get you—and your gear—exactly where you need to go. Whether it’s a remote cabin, lodge, hunting camp, Denali basecamp (for your climbing or skiing expedition), or Iditarod checkpoint, we fly you there safely and efficiently.

These flights are more “mission-oriented” rather than guided, offering a direct, practical way to reach Alaska’s most remote destinations. We dedicate the same level of care and professionalism as we do on our scenic flights, ensuring every charter reflects our commitment to excellence. The best way to arrange a custom route or quote is to give us a call—our team will help tailor the flight to your needs.

For travelers looking to go beyond the road system, air taxi flights open the door to a wide range of possibilities—from drop-offs for backcountry hiking, photography, fishing, or rafting adventures, to picnic landings at remote lakes or gravel bars. With our versatile aircraft and experienced bush pilots, you can design a trip that’s as simple or adventurous as you’d like—always within the bounds of weather, weight, and landing-site conditions.
If you have a destination in mind or want to explore what’s possible, give us a call. Our team will help you tailor a route, confirm feasibility, and ensure your flight fits both your goals and Alaska’s unique flying environment.


Private Charters & Air Taxi From $800

We are the number one option for clients who value comfort over hustle and a personal approach over crowds, our private charters keep things simple, small, and safe. From Talkeetna, we fly direct to remote properties and lodges, provide hunter drop-offs and big game transport, and handle air-taxi point-to-point runs across the Alaska Range—on a timetable that respects your plan and the weather.

Iditarod Flight Tours

Our Iditarod flight tours are the best way to see this great race. We offer personalized trips for small groups following the race from the air, from the ceremonial start in Anchorage, the race restart in Willow to the first checkpoints at Yentna station, Finger and Puntilla Lake, and beyond all the way to Nome.
