🌿 LPA UPDATE 🌾
At Lake & Pen Air, serving Alaska’s communities is more than our business—it’s our commitment. As operating costs continue to change across the state, we want to be transparent about unexpected adjustments and the reasons behind them. 📢
LPA is committed to providing safe, reliable air transportation throughout Alaska while maintaining the high standards of service our customers expect. Over the past several months aviation fuel costs have increased substantially across the state, reaching levels that are significantly higher than forecasts and historical averages. ⛽️
To continue providing dependable service without compromising safety, maintenance or scheduling reliability we will be implementing a temporary fuel surcharge effective July 15, 2026. This surcharge will be reviewed regularly and adjusted accordingly. The surcharge will be removed when fuel prices return to a more typical level. ⚖️
We understand that cost increases are never welcome, and we appreciate your understanding as we work to maintain the safe and dependable air service that our communities, businesses, and travelers rely upon. 🤝
We are grateful for the honor to continue serving communities and people we deeply care for and who have supported us over the years. We are excited to keep Unlocking Alaska with the safety, reliability, and care you and your loved ones deserve. 🔓
