• SEA Airport Overview
  Seattle-Tacoma International (SEA) Airport, more commonly known as Sea-Tac Airport, is located between its two namesake cities in Washington’s Puget Sound region. The airport is a hub for Alaska Airlines and is served by over 25 other domestic and international airlines. From Sea-Tac, you can fly nonstop to over 50 destinations in the U.S. and 15 international destinations including Canada, Mexico, Europe and Asia. The busy Seattle airport consists of a main terminal with four concourses and two satellite terminals. The satellite terminals are linked to the main terminal by an efficient underground train system. To accommodate the area’s surging growth, SEA airport is in the midst of a multi-year capital improvement project that’s scheduled for completion in 2010, so be prepared to encounter construction zones until then. As part of this project, a completely renovated Concourse A was opened in the summer of 2004. The formerly old and cramped concourse was expanded from seven to fourteen gates and features an arrivals hall with a stunning 70-foot high wall of glass. Art features prominently in the new concourse and throughout the airport. You can get current exhibit locations from the directional signs on the esplanade behind the ticket counters in the main terminal.

• Baggage Carts / Skycap
  Baggage Carts and Skycap service are available at the entrances and exits near the Baggage Claim areas. Skycap service is also available throughout the airport to persons needing special assistance. "Smarte Cartes" are conveniently placed throughout the terminal and are available to rent for $2. Upon returning it to a "Smart Carte" station, you will receive a $0.25 token good for food and beverage concessions at the airport. Smarte Cartes, however, are not allowed through security checkpoints.

• People With Special Needs / Persons With Disabilities
  The airport is fully equipped with special access facilities to provide all travelers -- as well as meeters, greeters and airport employees -- with a safe, convenient means of getting around.
  
  New security procedures at airports impact everyone. Travelers with special needs - whether it’s a child traveling alone or a traveler with a disability - should do some advance planning and strategizing.
  • Parking for travelers with disabilities is available on both the 3rd (hourly parking) and 4th (general parking) floors of the garage.
  • Lines at security checkpoints can be very long. Travelers who have problems standing for long periods may want to arrange for wheelchair service via their airlines. Rental wheelchairs and baby strollers are also available in the airport from Ken’s Baggage and Frozen Food Storage. Ken’s is located on the baggage claim level under the escalator bank between Carousels 9 and 13. Call them at 206 433-5333 for more information.
  • Only ticketed passengers are allowed past security checkpoints. However, many airlines are issuing special ""companion passes"" to non-travelers assisting travelers with disabilities or children traveling alone that allow them to accompany passengers with special needs to the gates. Travelers should check directly with the airlines they are traveling on to see what options are available.
  • Extra time at the airport is a must. Travelers should take into account the additional time needed to get from the relocated parking areas for travelers with disabilities as well as the longer waits at both ticket counters and security check points.
  • If you have any medical devices, such as syringes or special apparatus that might be questioned at the security checkpoint, you should check with your airline in advance of the flight to confirm requirements. Under FAA regulations, diabetics who need to fly with syringes or insulin delivery systems should carry a vial of insulin with a professional, pharmaceutical preprinted label which clearly identifies the medication. Because of the possibility of forgery, prescriptions and letters of medical necessity will not be accepted.
  
  Curbside Services:
  Curbside check-in is available, but there is no parking or waiting allowed on the airport drives. Vehicles left unattended, even if the driver is nearby, will be ticketed and towed.
