Flight

Seattle-Tacoma (SeaTac) International Airport

SeaTac is the closest and most convenient international airport to Tacoma. It is conveniently located half way between Seattle and Tacoma, about a 35 minute drive to either downtown area. There are rental car agencies on site and Uber/Lyft are readily available in this area for transportation. When flying home, use the SeaTac SPOTsaver to save yourself a place in the security line for shorter wait times as SeaTac is a very busy airport with long security line wait times.
