British Airways flights to Seattle land at Seatac Airport, 13 miles south of Seattle city centre. After your Seattle flight, soak up views of snowy Mount Rainier from your taxi. Then look out for the iconic Space Needle, which heralds your arrival in the modern metropolis of Seattle. Grab a coffee from one of Seattle's waterside cafes. Then stretch your legs after your flight by exploring Seattle's street markets and fashionable boutiques.
When your flight to Seattle lands, hail a taxi from outside Seattle airport's Flight Arrivals. The journey into Seattle city centre usually takes around half an hour, depending on traffic. You can opt for the city buses, which are frequent and reliable, but will give you a longer journey after your flight. Ask your Seattle hotel if they organise shuttle buses to meet Seattle flights. Alternatively, hire a car to make the most of the countryside and attractions around Seattle.
After your flight to Seattle, head into Seattle's busy city centre to ride the lift up to the Space Needle's observation deck, for panoramic Seattle vistas. See Pacific octopus at Seattle Aquarium. Or take a ferry across Puget Sound for views of Seattle from the water and snow-capped Mount Rainier.
