Airport Transportation
There are several options for transportation to and from SeaTac airport. Choose the one that suites you best!
Shuttle Express is a van service that will bring you to our door and is convenient for the price. They can be contacted on arrival at 206-622-1424. Follow the signs in the airport to shuttles and buses. $16-23 per person/$21-29 for two people depending on where you are dropped off.
If you have a large group arriving together, ask them about group rates. It is a very inexpensive option; the more people you have with you, the cheaper it is per person.

Public Transportation (the bus)
Public transportation is the cheapest route, but a little more inconvenient depending on where you are staying. If you are staying downtown, then you can take the bus directly there. If you are staying in another area of Seattle (Capitol Hill, Ballard, Queen Anne), then you will need to transfer to the appropriate bus line.
The following public transportation services are available to and from Seattle-Tacoma International Airport. Public transit bus routes serve the Airport outside Door 6 by baggage carousel #1, on the Baggage Claim (lower) level. Metro Transit
1-800-542-7876

$1.25-$2.00 One Way / Single Fare / 1 or 2 Zone(s)

The King County Metro website has a great tool called trip planner. Once you insert where you are coming and from and where you want to go, it will let you know the best routes to take with the bus.

If you want to have your own transportation to and from the weekends events, here are some rental car companies to choose from. Again, I recommend booking your rental car through www.expedia.com, www.orbitz.com or www.travelocity.com for the most competitive rates.
Nine rental car companies have information counters in the Baggage Claim area, and five have car pick-up and drop-off at the airport on the first floor of the garage across from the Main Terminal. In addition, off-airport rental car companies provide courtesy van service to the airport.
