Seattle Tacoma International Airport Departures (SEA)

Seattle Tacoma International Airport is found between the cities of Seattle and Tacoma, and is a large North American Airport handling in excess of 30 million passengers every year. It is also a hub for a few airline companies, and an important international gateway for the country. It can also be referred to as the Sea-Tac Airport, due to its location in the area of SeaTac, and it has been allocated the official airport code of SEA. Passengers on Seattle Tacoma International Airport departure flights will find all the facilities they require within the terminal buildings. Passengers also have a wide choice of airline companies and destinations.

The airport of Seattle and Tacoma can be reached by private transport, public buses, private shuttles, taxi or train. Passengers driving to the airport will use the Interstate 5 from Seattle or Tacoma, and then the State Road 518 for access to the airport roads, which include Highway 99, or the International Boulevard. The State Roads 509 and 599 are also considered as main access roads from the north or south, while the Interstate 405 is a road used from the east. From areas further east, the Interstate 90 leads to Seattle. The airport is located in the state of Washington, which is to the south of Vancouver, Canada, and is nearby to Renton and Kent. It is also south-west of Lake Washington and north of Angle Lake, a smaller body of water. Alongside the airport on its western side is the Puget Sound and Vashon Island. Departing passengers can park their vehicles in the airport parking garage. The fourth floor is mainly used for short-term stays, while the third, fifth and eighth floors are less expensive for longer-term stays. There is also an overheight vehicle parking area, and spaces on the fourth and fifth floors for handicapped travellers.

Passengers on departure flights can also travel to the airport by taxi, from any area, and by the public buses operated by King County Metro. Many private shuttles serve the airport from all areas as well, such as the Airporter Shuttle, Capital Aeroporter, the Bremerton-Kitsap Airporter, Downtown Airporter, the Island Airporter, Olympic Bus Lines, Shuttle Express, Quick Shuttle and the Vashon Shuttle. The trains that run to the airport are perhaps the most convenient and cost efficient way to travel. They leave from the Westlake Station in downtown Seattle, and arrive at the airport approximately thirty to forty minutes later. The trains are frequently available, and can be taken from one of eleven stations between the airport and the city. They are also operated by the King County Metro.
