Hello ABL family,
Sea-Tac traffic is getting really hectic with holiday travel, so please plan extra time. During peak hours this weekend, the average time just to get into the airport area was about 37 minutes because of traffic.
Quick favor. Please take advice from your dispatchers and follow their guidance. They’re watching conditions in real time and can help you avoid delays.
A few tips that can really help:
• Download the FLYSEA app for live airport updates
• You can also check live checkpoint wait times here:

• Garage drop-off is recommended right now since the curb gets congested fast
• Tip: Checkpoint 1 (baggage claim level, in front of International) is available for TSA PreCheck and CLEAR
• If you’re heading to the airport, leave earlier than normal, especially morning and late afternoon
Please share this with your friends and family who are flying this week. It can save them a lot of stress.
Safe travels and happy holidays.
Estimated checkpoint wait times Traveler Alert: We're working to restore live estimated checkpoint wait times on the flySEA App and website. Please see other advice on security screening in the meantime to best prepare for your trip.
