In Fairbanks right now and not being a d*ck, but I see most people not wearing masks here. It's not surprising they are having high rates of hospitalization here. Feel bad. I wish it was better.

The only problem going there is finding a reasonable car rental.
Paying 4 or 5 times the airfare to rent a car for a week it may not be worth it.
I can confirm that car rentals are crazy expensive right now in AK. I'm not sure if it's always like that or just a right now thing. But the cheapest I could find last week was about $170/day.

sky high rental car prices for sure but i ended up renting a 4x4 so it was going to be a little bit higher anyway. unfortunately this is a problem you cannot avoid unless you plan to take the alaska train in and out of anc to places like seward or denali.
Fares are cheap because they are off season. Either that or you actually live in Fairbanks and don't want to be in Alaska during the winter. Yes, I have been to Alaska.

What about an RV?

If you plan on hiking in the Alaskan wilderness and want to check in a .44/.454/.500 magnum for personal bear defense, remember NYC is a second amendment free zone unless you're rich and famous. Checking in a legal firearm at LaGuardia, Kennedy or Newark WILL get you cuffed and arrested.
I lived in Alaska for 10 years and I assure you that the photo shown is not from Fairbanks! It's a similar trick that the 'advocates' use to show mountains in ANWR, to invoke an emotional connection to an area which is thousands of square miles of mud. In any case this offer is a real good deal... if you can tolerate the cold. Even if you pick the warmest months to travel it will snow. We got snowed on while camping over Memorial Day weekend, and that was 400 miles south of Fairbanks. Be sure to see the museum at the university, and for the love of everything that is Holy you must have Sunday brunch at Pike's Riverfront. Ask for a table by the windows, and try the Crème Brûlée.
Personal experience with FAI car rental June '21… I was the first person off the plane to the car rental counter, and the agent there told me that I got "the only car" in Fairbanks, and everyone else off my plane would have to wait until vehicles were returned and cleaned. I heard about arriving travelers spending the night on the baggage area floor just waiting for a rental car. I had a great trip, but fair warning that until car inventories rise, booking one of those crazy rental rates doesn't actually guarantee you a car once you get there. YMMV, literally…

Everything's great when everything's great. It's the emergencies that are a problem.
Can't imagine your risk of the coof would be that high if your exploring the great outdoors or taking photos of the beautiful scenery.
