Arriving in Seattle

The airport has a Central Terminal as well as a North Satellite and a South Satellite, and flights from New York City land in all three zones. If you arrive at one of the satellite terminals, hop on the free train to the Central Terminal, where you will be able to claim your luggage.

It takes about forty minutes to travel from the airport to downtown Seattle.

  • New York City experiences colder winters and warmer summers than Seattle. On the other hand, Seattle sees a much higher number of rainy days (so make sure you pack an umbrella!).

For example, it costs $54 USD ($72 CAD) to ascend New York City's Empire State Building, while a morning or evening ticket to the top of Seattle's iconic Space Needle is only $19 USD ($25 CAD).
