Pizza delivery in Alaska is by air

In Nome, Alaska, ordering a pizza is easy. Just call up Airport Pizza, which delivers free of charge, by plane. Population in the western Alaska town is 3,500, but Airport Pizza delivers to almost a dozen sub-arctic villages via Frontier Flying Service, which provides the delivery free of charge, even as far away as 500 miles to a small island in the Bering Sea.

But that doesn't make a pizza meal cheap. A small cheese pizza starts at $16, and can go up to $32 for a large specialty. Fuel costs keep the the cost of getting ingredients like garlic, red and green bell peppers, and sun-dried tomatoes. These are rare ingredients in Nome, Alaska. However, reindeer sausage is not.
