Alaska Visitors Statistics Program (AVSP) VII
The most comprehensive research about Alaska’s visitors is now available. The survey conducted in summer 2016 shows a 4% growth in visitation resulting in $1.97 billion in visitor spending. A large portion of the bump can be attributed to an increase in air volume, which went up by 6 percent. Those arriving by cruise ship accounted for 55 percent of visitors, totaling 1,025,900 people in summer 2016. The highway/ferry market saw the biggest jump, going up 10 percent over the past year and now accounting for 5 percent of total summer visitor volume.
