Airport Pick-Up Waiting Lot

It seems that half of Seattle still doesn't know about the 'cell phone waiting lot.' It's where citizens, and non-citizens alike, can wait for their passengers to call for pick up.

Too many people still park (or try to) at the curbside of Arrivals. It clogs up the lanes so badly that sometimes no one can get into, or out of, the area.

Do yourself (and us) a favor and park in the waiting lot on Air Cargo Rd. It's your civic duty & it's FREE. Thank you for Flying Sea-Tac. Buh-Bye.

Welcome, Seattle & world travelers.
