A very nice airport seems new and spacious. I came in from an international flight, and the passport control is the worst I've seen in all my airports and travels. I waited almost an hour to get through customs to get to my next flight. The workers were confused on where to start the lines at. Then passport control asks a long list of questions that have nothing to do with your trip holding the line longer.

Had a layover here, we were in terminal A. Very busy and not much seating. We had to stand for a good 40 min. We also wish there was more food options available without walking to other end of airport. There were only 2 places near an African place and a pizza sandwich shop. We went with sandwich and it was okay but overpriced. Which is a airport standard but you Know what I mean.. the biggest reason for the 3 stars is due to no seating.. c’mon get a few more seating options. Thanks for reading!!

Clean airport. Easy to navigate. To check my Spirit Airlines bag took like 30 minutes, but I was there early enough that it did not matter. The tram took me to gate S, so pay attention what gate you are at.

What a beautifully put together airport. Tons and tons of eateries and so spacious with lots of seating. But the BEST thing ever is the kids zone across from A1. I mean, talk about brilliant!! I’ve seen kid play areas in a few airports but this one is by far the biggest
When you book your ticket, you can request wheel chair services and other assistance at that time, even when you check in for the flight the request can be made then.

I would think because of covid they are probably a bit understaffed. I have seen a lot of TSA job opportunities available, so I would say that is most likely the reason.
2 hours is plenty of time, unless it's an international flight onward for some on board and or it is busy at the airport. Sea-Tac can be a mess at times with traffic and waiting lines.
Nope. However, you may get there by other public transportation, if you don't want to use Uber or cab. From Sea Tac, take Link light rail to Tukwila International Blvd Station. Then transfer to route #124 Downtown Seattle Georgetown. Get off #124 at East Marginal Way S & S 94th Pl. One way trip by this route is approx 40 min.
Which hotel is nearest to the airport please? And is there a bus that we can use to get from the airport to the hotel, drop off our luggage and then take a bus to downtown Seattle?

I used Red Lion Renton. They will pick you up and take you back. Its was a great place to stay, with The Yankee restaurant. Walmart across the street.
The International Air Transport Association (IATA) sets guidelines for cabin luggage/hand luggage/carry-on luggage size. As of 2022, the IATA recommends a maximum size of 56cm x 45cm x 25cm (22in x 18in x 10in), including protuberances like wheels, handles, and pockets. This can differ depending on the airline and aircraft model being used.
Parking in the airport garage is $6/hour, $34/day or $169/ week. There are a lot of offsite options available for cheaper but of course you have to take a shuttle to and from the airport so plan on extra time
Alaska uses this airport as a hub so I would imagine plenty of jobs. But try others as well. Its an international airport that receives a lot of far eastern airlines as well.
If you're arriving on a domestic flight, you should have enough time. If you're coming from abroad, immigration and customs normally delay you, so you should get more time.
How much are shuttles from airport to carnival ports
Linda Chant | Aug 10, 2022
Mark Bodine | Aug 11, 2022
Their is no shuttle to the ports from the air port. Uber, or taxi is the only way. It's about 50-165 bucks depends on how many people you have with you.
You need to contact your Airline, not ask Google. Cancelations happen there regularly right now because of "covid-19" and weather. Try using their app or website. Good luck!
Is there a direct flight from Manila in the Philippines to Seattle?
Charles Ernst | Aug 10, 2022

Currently, the only nonstop flights to the Philippines depart from Los Angeles and San Francisco. All of the nonstop flights from these two cities arrive in the Philippines' busiest international airline hub: Manila.
Are there any direct flights from Manila in the Philippines to Seattle

While it depends on who you're flying with, you want to pack the firearm(s) in a locked hard case, and declare them at a designated location. From there, the airport security and the airline will help.
Assuming you booked your flight from Philadelphia to Medford and didn't book them as two separate trips... your bags will automatically transfer... if you actually booked the trips separately, you might need to re- check your bag in Seattle. As for how far apart the gates are... that can vary a lot... but SeaTac isn't really that big and it's fairly easy to get from one concourse to another
I think we're a fair size port and I would think there would be at least 1 that would fly there .let me check into that and I'll post the information that I get immediately for you to use and others if needed. This is definitely one question that needs answered and posted in bold font for all to see .thank you for asking.
Can you book a PCR test for travel at the airport and then book a flight right when you get the results?
ratha chan | Aug 10, 2022
James Clevenger | Aug 11, 2022
Unless it has changed in the last week, NO. There are many locations in WA to get the test but also a lot of those locations require a provider referral if you don't have symptoms and haven't been in contact with confirmed positive case.
My friend has an I.D. that says federal limits apply can he fly within the U.S.?
I think i read something about real ID being delayed till october 2021.
First think. Do you know someone that would send you that kind of money and first spoke about it or some context.
Usually if that amount of money is given from say an inheritance it is handled by an attorney. This has scam all over it.
No idea. Call the Mexican Consolate and your airline for information. There might be exemptions for Mexican citizens returning home, if that is your situation.
There is not a Seahawks Store, that I know of, but various stores sell their merchandise. Good luck.
My Husband to be is stuck in Accura, Ghana Africa. He wants to come home but I don't know the Restrictions are in place here at Seattle International in order to get him home. Can anyone please advise me what or how to get him home?

I think it depends if international flights are coming from Accura Ghana Africa to Seattle or not, as I know most of countries have paused their international flights and only special flights operations are running only for Citizens who are stuck in different country.
If your husband is US. Citizen stuck in Ghana then He should contact US embassy and they will be able to assist him in timely manner.

Good afternoon, the flights that are only leaving are numbered and under strict control. I suggest you go to the airport to see if you can find a place. I have departure for April 2 and I have no cancellation x part of the airline or any communication x part of the airport.
BEFORE October 1, government issued ID.
AFTER October 1, you need a RealID. To find out what qualifies as REALID your can Google 'RealID + whatever state you reside in' ie RealID + California. Hope this helps!
Before October 1
Domestic: Passport, Drivers Licence, Green Card, Global Entry Card, Military ID (active)
International: Passport
After October 1:
Domestic: Passport, Drivers Licence (Must be REAL ID compliant*), Green Card, Global Entry Card, Military ID (active)
International: Passport
* Google 'Real ID' for tons of information on how to get a RealID drivers licence!

How early should we arrive to catch a domestic flight?
Janis Daubenspeck | Aug 10, 2022
Brian O | Aug 11, 2022
At busy departure times, I suggest arriving at the TSA line, no less than, 100-120 minutes before your scheduled departure time. Add 12 minutes per child, per elderly or handicapped traveler. Happy travels! 😁
Is there a TSA office at SeaTac?
Joseph Francis Argazzi | Aug 10, 2022
Brian O | Aug 11, 2022
Per google search... Airport location is one of six permanent application sites in Puget Sound region. ... SEA is one of 46 airports where TSA Pre✓ ® enrollment is offered. The application site is located near the Alaska Airlines ticketing area, near security checkpoint 4. It is pre-security and no boarding pass is required to visit.Aug 9, 2016
Is there a Jamba Juice?
Sharalyn Ball | Aug 10, 2022
Dale Eagar | Aug 11, 2022
There is, yes. But rather than just give you that here is the URL for the webpage with all dining options at SeaTac... https://www.portseattle.org/page/airport-dining-options
You should check the airport website for security wait times to help you plan. As in the previous answer for domestic travel an hour and a half is a good rule of thumb, with a minimum of two hours when traveling internationally. SeaTac, at times, has long waits at security check points, and even the clear and pre-check are sometimes limited to a single point which can negate some of the speed benefit of the service.
Based on your route, sounds like Horizon/Alaska Airlines. You will be OK. And as mentioned in previous reply, gates are easy to maneuver. Horizon has most of their gates in one general area. They have covered tarmac pedestrian walkways leading you directly to your plane..very simple. Safe travels!
Yes, you have to clear the customs, recheck the bags and get on the airport train. You might need help to cut the line(ask the airline host) at the immigration and customs if you want to make it in time.
They DO impact air travel while the show is going on. Flights from the north cannot come in, they have to go way east or west, then approach from the south.

Crystal Barrientos | Aug 10, 2022
thomas rodrian | Aug 11, 2022
In the breezeway they will have you transfer into an aisle chair. from the breezeway they will take your chair down to the tarmac and load your chair onto plane.
They will take you there, and it will be extremely expensive. You will either loop down around the Puget Sound via Olympia or drive to Seattle and have to pay the ferry to get you and the taxi across to Bremerton. Alternatively, there are commercial shuttle services that make the run regularly and might be easier to deal with. Good luck.

I'm sorry I don't understand your question completely. International flights require at least 3-4 hours to check in luggage, but your transit time is inconsequential if checked in online for carry-on and have direct route for luggage from Sacramento (Airport if checked-in). Security checks are quick at SETAC unless you are carrying lot of contraband and wearing lot of clothes. Check flight departure and wait times

She needs a passport card if not use passport for domestic travel. You can call the airlines for specific id requirements for minors. A student id might not suffice and Driver license/non-driver Id may be allowed, but call the airlines and airport security prior to her travel date.
What points do I have to use after using Expedia for my trip how can I use my points with my trip
Sandy Schaerrer St Jeor | Aug 10, 2022
Caden Koehn | Aug 11, 2022
It can depend on what airline you fly. Some airlines may let you use your points to book another flight, but since you booked your trip off of a third party website like, Expedia, for example and not off of the airline's website, directly - you may have to call the airline that you are flying on and seek their advice or assistance with your points program. Some airlines have a strict policy on how to use points or flying miles that aren't part of their travel program.
The TSA officer you speak with at the airport about your lost ID will likely ask you to fill out a form which includes your name and current address. They will likely follow this up by asking you additional questions to hopefully confirm your identity. If your identity is confirmed, you will be allowed to fly.Dec 9, 2018
There are restaurants before and after security checkpoints. Some of the better restaurants in the or after security. Security is very easy to go through, as long as you don't mind taking off your shoes.

Jaylene Hebert | Aug 10, 2022
C Boss | Aug 11, 2022
Go to the website of the airline you are interested in. Look for the career tab. You can filter the job search to see if there is any opening. The job posting will describe the requirements, and how/ where to apply. Different airlines may have different standards and requirements, even though there may be some that are standard to all. Best to check with each airline. All the best.
I've had pretty bad luck with SeaTac lately, the runway construction has created a lot of variability. If your flight is on time, you should be fine. Check the gate assignments when they are available and see how far away they are from each other, you might want to move your seat forward to get off quicker.

You might be able to but you might want to check with your airline
There should be a sign that tells you which way to go and get you to an area where you can either park or somewhere you can pull off to a shoulder and pick them up
Yes I believe there is a lost and found there the depends on what flight you took you should also check with that Airline because because they might have their own lost and found
I bought two separate tickets for my son, one from portland to seattle on Alaska and one from Seattle to Dublin on Aer Lingus. My question: he is not checking baggage,will he have to check in and come back through security or check in at gate?
Si Steinberg | Aug 10, 2022
Alex Cooke | Aug 11, 2022
If you are flying intercontinental you do not need to check back through security. Once he gets to Seattle he should fine to just head to his gate for Dublin. However once he lands in Dublin he will have to go through customs which could take a while if it's his first time into that country. So make sure he has his passport and a visa if need be.
You definitely want to call and contact the airport or wherever you choose to leave your car you need to contact that business because hours can change on the weekdays and weekends
Staff was very professional. You have to be on time, in advance to get good service for one. After that, there's time to relax. Lots of noise however they are going under renovation, so expected. As you pass thru a city, enjoy what you can, allow them to fix it, and if you are a customer who passed thru frequently, go to the city and make a valid complaint so things can hopefully get done and hopefully change will be affected. It helps to post here and other sites as well. No complaints for this one
Alaska will allow the child to fly alone and they charge an extra 25.00 to escort the child to gates if there is a gate change. They take the child to the person waiting and I watched this first hand. They had the person taking the child to sign a paper. From my recent flight , I sat beside a 10 year old. They get an iPad to watch movies and on the food cart, they can pick a food item. I'd feel safe knowing that they do have a flight attendant escorting them.
