Thanksgiving Holiday, 2022 -- Fairbanks Alaska -- Part 2 - Sunday, 11/20 - Fairbanks Arrival and first night

Picking up the checked bags.
Took about 10 minutes.
Not too bad.
The terminal looks pretty new and is pretty nice.

It's a small airport so it has all the convenience of a not crowded small city/town airport. 

By the time we got our bags, it was about 12:30 AM (the next day, Sunday).
For the first night, we reserved a Best Western near the airport.
We called them for a shuttle ride & they sent a taxi to pick us up.
Took about 1/2 hour for the taxi.
The Best Western was just a couple of miles away.
Since we knew we'd be getting in so late, we reserved the Air-BnB and the rental car to start on the next day.

Sunday morning sunrise.
The sun was rising at about 9:45 AM & setting about 3:30 PM.





They didn't have anyone to drive the shuttle van so they called a cab for us to get a ride back to the airport (so we can pick up our rental car).
They paid for the cab rides.
We just paid for the tip to the taxi drivers.
