February fares as low as USD 89 tell you everything about Sea-Tac's rhythm: rain keeps prices honest, sunshine makes them reckless. San Francisco to Seattle runs a mere 2h 20m for USD 79, which is less than most people spend on brunch in this town. Alaska Airlines practically owns the place, and Affirm, Afterpay, Klarna and Zip all clear at checkout, so spreading a summer fare into instalments makes real sense when July prices jump 40-60%. Just budget for the coffee and the Pike Place lunch separately, because the flight was never going to be the expensive part.
西雅圖-塔科馬國際機場（Seattle-Tacoma International Airport，簡稱Sea-Tac）負責所有飛往該市的主要國內和國際航班。機場只有一個主航站樓和一個衛星航站樓（S航站樓），兩者之間透過地下旅客捷運系統連接。阿拉斯加航空是機場的主要營運商，但聯合航空、達美航空、美國航空、西南航空以及多家國際航空公司也都在此擁有強大的業務。國際旅客在主航廈辦理入境手續；夏季尖峰時段下午請預留充足的時間。
