Starting on Oct. 24, 2021, the FCC has mandated all phone calls will require dialing the full 10-digit phone number, including area code. This means all Alaskans, regardless of their service provider, will need to dial 907 before seven-digit phone numbers, even when making a local phone call.
Be sure to update your contacts, and reprogram any call forwarding to lead with “907” before Oct. 24.
