A perfect time to update all your Angry Birds games on your phone and tablet before your flight.
If you are renting a car leave an extra 20-30 minutes into your schedule, it is offsite and a pain.
For ride shares like Lyft or Uber, head to level 3 of the parking garage past the taxi pickup area.
If u take light trail, don't forget to pay first before get into the train. :)
Best airport to fly out of! Quick and friendly security!
Matt ParrishJune 13, 2013Had a beer at The Big Foot Bar and my waitress was big foot's love slave....#thatjusthappened
Don't worry if you're running low on energy! There's a Starbucks every 5 gates.
Chef Julius RussellAugust 21, 2012I'm still in the damn place! 1hr & 15min early for your flight is evidently NOT early enough on "cruise day" Now waiting ALL day on "stand-by" GRRRRRR
The plan for screening passengers is amazingly cumbersome and inefficient. Give yourself plenty of time outbound.
You can find Downtown Airporter and Shuttle Express on the 3rd floor parking garage. Cross Skybridge 3 or 4 and down one floor!
Locals know how to spot a tourist. They just look for the umbrellas.
Security lines are longer than most US airports here. Lack of good well-known food options. Centurion lounge always crowded or full. Annoying train system to get to terminals.
Chad KneubuhlNovember 26, 2011If you ever fly Alaskan air go through this airport... very nice. If you have a long lay over stay in the board room or the sea hawks bar and grill.
Kerry Lynn BohenMarch 17, 2013Love this airport - just becaue when I land here I'm in Seattle. Virginia America flies here now too.
KAYAKJuly 9, 2012make sure you check out Ivar's Clam, located in the central terminal. delicious chowder.
John GraukeFebruary 20, 2017Take the sting out of your yearly American Express Card dues at the hospitality club
Flight delay? Get a manicure or pedicure at Butter in C concourse; they are very speedy!
Clear, direct signage. Didn't have a problem finding our way around our first time in the city.
Get dropped off at Arrivals and picked up at Departures.... Randomly neither are busy if you do the opposite
Joseph SumiJuly 1, 2013Buy your food in the main concourse thru the main security checkpoint. Food is limited the further out you go.
Go to Discover Puget and buy a $20 bottle of Washington wine w/ a screw top and save on your flight.
Felita ShenAugust 22, 2012Hire a town car for $40 flat rate. Way more comfy than a taxi. Taxis are $35 to downtown then they add some fees, so it's practically the same price.
Find a family that will let you go with them through family line to bypass long security lines.
if you are here everyweek like I am, you can rent a parking space on Tue 4th floor for less than the aggregate of your parking by day. Easy in and out.
When you come out of customs walk right past the baggage people and onto the train. Saves a lot of time.
Kristin HillJune 6, 2012Must take trains to C/D/N gates and B/S gates AFTER security. Give yourself plenty of time!
Park in cell phone lot until flight lands. The park in direct access parking for easy in and put.
Kevin EnglishSeptember 10, 2012Try Anthony's Seafood in the Main Terminal for excellent fish tacos and fish and chips.
The Wi-Fi is free, the restaurants are actually quite good (if you have the time) and security is a breeze if you're prepared.
Not the most exciting airport but functional. Plenty of Starbucks available. Sign up to CLEAR if you wish to proceed through customs quickly.
It doesn't matter where I come from, I'm always happy to come home here!
TSA Checkpoint 1 is for Pre-Check and has Clear, so it’s the fastest usually
- Douglas HawksMay 14, 2012Several seating areas now have outlets for every chair. Find these and no need to sit on the floor for power
United's mobile phone boarding pass may just make up for all the annoying upgrade attempts. Quick and easy for bag checks and security!
Brent MJanuary 30, 2011The food at Dish D'lish in the airport is really good! Great tasting iced tea and panini sandwiches. So fresh.
Rob LojekMay 7, 2013Great eats past security -- but they're not on the map by the ticketing counters.
The Daily SipDecember 2, 2010Vino Volo is a great place to grab a glass (or a bottle) and have a snack before a flight
United Airline's mobile boarding pass doesn't work well here. Be sure to get a printed pass at the check-in counter before going to the security gates.

"First time back since it opened and all the shuttle drivers are super friendly. I also felt like the process was super streamlined making for a good experience. However, it's a bit out of the way."
