Four Enquiries - About Seatac Airport
1. I am traveling to Europe on vacation and want to know
how many bags I can take as checked luggage. Also, is there a weight
limit?
Luggage policies vary from airline to airline; so check directly with
your carrier.
2. I know my Hummer is
too high for the airport garage. Is there any area at the airport
where I can park it?
Yes, there is a parking area for over-height
vehicles. To access this parking area, use Highway 99 / International
Blvd. from the north or south.
- Enter the airport from South 182nd
St. off of Highway 99 / International Blvd. and make your way
into the left lane (following general parking signs).
- As you pass construction, stay in the left
lane and curve to the left, then follow the signs to over-height
parking (which at this point should be in front of you and to
the right).
- At the entry plaza, use the open lane on
the far right and take a ticket from the machine.
- After the gate opens, drive in and park in
any of the 60-plus stalls in the outdoor area. It is within walking
distance to the terminal.
- Take your ticket with you, because you will
pay for parking at one of the exitxpress machines located
on the 4th floor of the garage before returning to your vehicle.
- General parking rates apply.
- Take your paid ticket back to your car and
use it to exit.
3.
I'm arriving at the South Satellite and connecting to
a flight on Concourse D. Can I get from one gate area to another without
clearing security?
Yes, all concourses now linked by walkways. The route is a bit of a maze,
but you can get from the South Satellite by first taking the transit
train and then walking north to the D Concourse.
4. I am bringing my elderly
mother to the airport for a flight. Will I be able to accompany her
to the gate?
Only passengers with boarding passes are allowed past security checkpoints.
However, many airlines issue 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.
Check directly with your mother's airline to see what options are
available.
