Question

Is UBER or LYFT available in Anchorage as landing around 11PM, wanna avoid Taxi cabs

Answer

Yes, both Uber and Lyft operate in Anchorage, including late-night rides around 11 PM, so you can use them to get from Anchorage Airport (ANC) to downtown or other parts of town without relying on taxis.

Here are some details and tips:

Availability: Anchorage is smaller than many major cities, so while Uber and Lyft are available, there may be slightly longer wait times late at night. Typically, you can expect 5–15 minutes if there are drivers nearby.
Pick-up location: At ANC, Uber and Lyft pick up passengers on the Ground Transportation Level outside baggage claim. Follow signs for rideshare pick-up or check the app for the exact location.
Fare estimate: Depending on your destination in Anchorage, fares are usually in the $15–$30 range to downtown, and slightly higher if surge pricing is in effect.
Alternatives: If for some reason Uber/Lyft is slow, you can also consider local shuttle services or pre-arranged private car services. Some hotels offer late-night shuttle service if requested in advance.

Additional tips:

Have the app ready and your payment method set up before landing to reduce wait time.
Check for surge pricing late at night; if it’s high, waiting a few minutes or splitting rides could save money.
Confirm driver details carefully — Alaska’s snowy winter conditions can affect driver availability and travel time.

In summary, you can rely on Uber or Lyft for a late-night ride from ANC airport to town, and they are typically the easiest way to avoid taxis, especially if you want a cashless, app-based option.
