Ride the Rail to Sea-Tac Airport - Direct Service Begins on Saturday, December 18


Road Construction Updates

Link light Rail Service to the Airport Starts Saturday, December 19

Until then a free shuttle is operating between the Airport and the Tukwila station.

Sound Transit’s Link light rail to Tukwila is open with a free shuttle running from the Tukwila Station to Sea-Tac Airport. The connector buses from Tukwila will continue running until the station at Sea-Tac opens on December 19. The connector buses meet most train arrivals during normal hours of operation, and drop off and pick up passengers on the lower drive (arrivals level) at the public transit area on the far south end of baggage claim, outside door number 2. More information on schedules and service is available on the Sound Transit Web site.

The pedestrian bridge that will link Sound Transit's SeaTac/Airport Station to the Airport is now in place. When service begins later this year it will be just a four-minute walk from station to the Main Terminal.

Sound Transit and the Port of Seattle are bringing Link light rail to Sea-Tac Airport. The combined construction efforts includes the Port's roadway improvement and construction projects and Sound Transit's Airport Link project. The connection between downtown Seattle and Sea-Tac Airport will offer offering a speedy and convenient way for both travelers and employees to get to and from the Airport.

Here's what's coming:

  • A new SeaTac/Airport Station linked to the Airport Garage by a pedestrian bridge
  • Trains that run to and from Sea-Tac every 6-10 minutes
  • A 33-minute ride between Sea-Tac and downtown Seattle
