New site launched for Alaska Marine Highway System

Published Monday, December 1, 2008

JUNEAU, Alaska (AP) _ The state has launched a revamped Web site for the Alaska Marine Highway System.

Officials say the Web site will assist visitors in finding information about the ferries, reservations and communities.

One of the new features is a community map page that allows visitors to scroll the mouse over a dot representing a city. Then the site displays that community's population, longitude and latitude and detailed information about it.

Also new is a travel quick search page, which allows users to check departing ports, arriving ports and departure dates.

The web site can be found at: www.ferryalaska.com.
