- Keri GarelJuly 26, 2015Music lovers will enjoy the Sub Pop store at the entrance to Concourse C, with CDs, records, and airport-exclusive apparel and prints.
Ernesto DuterteMay 25, 2013If it's your first time here, then you'd better ask someone knowledgeable how to get to your destination! Have a safe flight.
John SchnipkoweitApril 15, 2014If you plan to take the train to the city, note that you can only buy a day pass for the current day - do not try to buy two at once for today and tomorrow, you may get stopped and warned, nicely tho
Pray for nice weather and a window seat on the plane to get an awesome view of Mt Rainier.
Don ElliottFebruary 24, 2013Breakfast tacos at Anthonys. Don't wait in line, go directly into bar and sit facing planes. Great view, fast service.
Try the new Lucky Louie in the food court. The teriyaki salmon is well presented and delicious.
Jet AirwaysAugust 4, 2014Seattle-Tacoma International Airport: There's not much chance you'll miss glimpsing the Seattle Public Library, but it is worth going inside for a closer look
Grab a seat in a rocking chair in the big food court area by the windows & watch the planes take off
The kids' playroom is awesome! I wish every airport had one! Also love the great 3D mobile sculpture in the main terminal!
Arrive early! Long lines abound. Long walks too... Especially if your flight leaves from the S-gates.
MohammedFebruary 12, 2015Nice airport.. When you get a taxi notice that u may get a bore luxury ride with just extra 2$!!
Tina EinkaufOctober 7, 2012Coming from the link light rail, no need to walk all the way to the airline skybridge if you ate already checked in. It's faster to get to the less busy security checkpoint then get to your terminal.
Apparently you don't have to empty your pockets, take out your laptop, or take off your shoes anymore here!
Taxis are super rude. Nearest Uber pickup spot is across the street from the light rail station on 176th. http://lifehacker.com/at-seatac-uberx-is-geofenced-not-to-pick-up-west-of-pa-1653791106
Sea-Tac typically has longer lines and can be troublesome to connect through because of the 5+ concourses. Pretty clean though.
The regular screening lines are quite long, give it enough time. However, you can tell they're making an effort to get you through fast.
Anthony's chowder is awesome... If you have a beer with it I suggest something dark and Large! Cheers
Follow the fish on the floor in gates B. Press the water fountains for sound effects! Keeps young and old entertained!
Mark EmmonsAugust 23, 2013Love that you take a little walk and can catch the train to downtown. Much faster and better views than riding the bus.
Michael RomoSeptember 26, 2010If the food choices don't rock your boat at the terminal you fly into take the train to the Central Terminal for better food! Anthony's has seafood, beer, drinks and comfortable seating!
Luz GRSeptember 26, 2017This is a cute airport, it has several restaurants and stores for you to have fun while you wait for your plane
Theresa 💜August 22, 2014Great airport with a wonderful selection of eateries. They also have free wifi 😊
Great, clean airport. Southwest security lines are usually short and quick. Food selection is not bad, considering it's airport food.
Awesome food to take on flights. Copper river salmon salads, Dungeness crab brekkie sandwiches, and many more Seattle favs
Invest in TSA Pre ✅ for $85. You'll speed through the security line in 5 minutes, get to leave your shoes on and your laptop in your bag- When moving from S-gates to B-gates, for B1 and B3 only it's quicker to walk from the A-gates stop on the train.
Sandy Weaver CarmanSeptember 5, 2013This is an easy airport to navigate, plus has some great shopping. Shoot for a long layover here! :)- NabeelJuly 8, 2011There's nobody at the JetBlue counter from 530p-745p. If you're on a redeye to JFK and come super early, try bag dropoff at 530p, even though check-in is 4 hrs max prior. Or just cruise the free wifi!
Goutham GaneshApril 25, 2016Pretty much roamed around every corner of the airport.. Beautiful shops and awesome food!! And the home of Starbucks :) Leaving with so much memories!!
Lovely clean and quiet-ish (Gate N) airport... I enjoyed that. 😁
ElizabethOctober 18, 2015Super clean and easy airport. Bathrooms are well maintained and people are so nice
The restaurant selection in Terminal S is the pits!
Katy Stanley (Schwenker)August 2, 2013The bathrooms by baggage claim are the BEST ones! Lots of room and very clean
RexOctober 25, 2017All terminals are connected post security. The north and south satellites require a train, but are still quite easy to get to
Gordon HughesJune 19, 2017For Delta Crown Club members skip the restaurants and enjoy dinner in the remodeled club. Food is catered in from the better airport eateries.
Jason NietoJune 20, 2013Like others have stated, the line to get thru security is ridiculous. I arrived early and it still took me 45 minutes to get thru. Plan accordingly or plan on missing your flight.
Check the food court area. It's just like being in a brand new high school and you don't know anybody; you're just searching for an empty spot. Make a friend if you got the time.
Kitty McGowanAugust 17, 2014The crab cocktail is amazing and the halibut fish and chips is to die for! In an Airport!!!!
The Clear TSA Pre-check line is ridiculous. Likely quicker to use the regular pre-check line.Upvoted Mar 21
There are shelves at eye level above the urinals. One in ten passengers will bang their head into them before or after relieving themselves. Don't be one of them.
JennApril 27, 2011Great airport. Lots to do after security. Try the turkey & cheddar w/ cucumber sandwich from Starbucks...its the perfect snack before a flight.
The free Wifi is insanely fast. I got 30 Mbps down and 50 Mbps up. This has to be a mistake by whoever manages the network but enjoy while it lasts.
Candace ChildersAugust 8, 2013If you have a dog they can be in the airport without a crate which is great for pet lovers :-)
Flight delayed? Get a mani, pedi or massage at butter (near gate 7) or get some polish in one of their great colors.
The cheapest way to get out of here is to take the skybridge to the light rail. If you will be here for a week and take any transit, buy an orca card at the station.
Mary GirifalcoSeptember 3, 2013There are a few trains here. You should leave some time and pay close attention . Very kind people!
Arian FlandersMarch 23, 2013Children's Play Area is legit. Its perfect for a small children to let out energy in between flights.
A pretty good place to have a layover. International gates are a little sparse for food or shopping, though.
Robert HendersonJanuary 1, 2019Virgin Atlantic’s Airport Manager named Mary is an absolute star. A valuable asset to Virgin Atlantics Seattle base.
If you rent a car at SeaTac plan for an extra 30+ minutes because the rental car facility has now been moved offsite and a shuttle bus will transport you to and from the terminals, similar to LAX.

"One of the beat things our city has done in recent memory. Ah, transit!"
Guy That- 7.0
"Gorgeous new facility!! Love the fact that even away from the terminal, it only takes 10 mins to get to. The return area is convenient too!"
Richard Olivas 
"One thing SeaTac does right is art. Obvious gallery displays, but also hidden gems. Look at the details around the restroom entrance, for instance."
