Flights depart Seattle for spots around the globe, no layover required.
Forget Making connections. Seattle’s airports have direct flights to more than a hundred destinations, served by more than 30 airlines. Travel as close as San Juan Island (35 minutes of scenic cruising) or as far-off as Singapore (more than 16 hours in an airliner) and never suffer the indignity of a layover.
We catalogued all the direct flights from Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (otherwise known as SEA), plus our other, smaller runways. Note that some flights are seasonal, and as is always the case with an international hub, the flight maps (like Sea-Tac’s domestic and international ones) are ever-evolving. We’re including new routes that have been announced even if they haven’t yet begun, as long as tickets are already for sale.
Before your flight, make sure you snag a spot to skip the security line. Bon voyage!
