General #

  1. ANC area arrivals on arrivals with crossing restrictions should be instructed to descend via the arrival, all other restrictions are noted in the A11 Gates section
  2. When high area is closed, 68 is merged with sector 8

Sector 5 #

  1. No special procedures

Sector 6 #

  1. FAI arrivals should be at or below FL320 appropriate for the direction of flight prior to handoff with sector 15
  2. ENA arrivals should be at or below FL250 appropriate for the direction of flight prior to handoff with sector 5

Sector 7 #

  1. CDV arrivals: routed along V319 or T269 crossing with a pilot’s discretion descent to 16000
  2. YAK arrivals: routed to YAK VOR along V440 or T269 with a pilot’s discretion descent to 15000

Sector 8 #

  1. CDV arrivals: route along V440 or T269 crossing the boundary at or above 16000
  2. CYXY arrivals via MEMLI (LOA): cross boundary descending to FL230
  3. JNU arrivals
    1. Aircraft communications must be transferred at or prior to LYNNS, FUNTR, MARMN, or no later than 15 NM from the airport

Sector 14 #

  1. CDV arrivals
    1. ILS Runway 27:
      1. Via FORAT:
        1. V319.FORAT with a 10000 crossing restriction
        2. DCT FORAT with a 15000 crossing restriction
    2. RNAV Runway 27:
      1. Via KATAT: V319.KATAT or T269.KATAT with an at or above 6000 at KATAT crossing restriction
    3. RNAV-B:
      1. Via CASEL: V319.CASEL or T269.CASEL with an at or above 6000 at CASEL crossing restriction
      2. Via JOH: any airway to JOH at or above 5000 at JOH crossing restriction
  2. YAK arrivals
    1. Aircraft on the YAK Arrival:
      1. Descend via the MEAs along the arrival with a full procedure clearance from the YAK VOR, or using TAAs for RNAV approaches
    2. Not on YAK Arrival:
      1. RNAV Runway 2:
        1. You’ll need to utilize TAAs to get them low enough to commence the approach, or
        2. Issue holding instructions at FACAD and descend them in the hold before issuing the approach
      2. Utilize airways to get them low enough to commence approach from the VOR or TAAs, V440 eastbound is 2000, T269 is 2400, V440 westbound is 2000, V319 and T259 is 2400 westbound
  3. VDZ arrivals: routed to JOH VOR along airways

1 These restrictions only apply to aircraft arriving at an airport within A11 and not filed on an arrival that supports “Descend Via” restrictions. Aircraft arriving on a STAR with published crossing restrictions shall be assigned “Descend Via” by ZAN. 2 During ELLAM/WITTI arrivals (ANC landing 15), YESKA and SEWAR combine into a single departure-only gate.

When A11 implements light traffic procedures, sector 5 and 6 may negate arrival gate and altitude restrictions. Sector 7 may negate altitude restrictions. Light traffic procedures is assumed to be in effect at all times outside of events unless otherwise coordinated.

Aircraft arriving ENA may exit Kenai gate at 2000, 4000, or 6000. SXQ 4000 or 6000 (any gate).
