lol @ 1:39 "We accidentally got on a bus and ended up in Bellevue, and we're like, 'where the hell are we?'" lol Anyway, as of March 23, 2019 (last weekend), buses no longer go through the Seattle transit tunnel; it's exclusively light rail now, so to anyone reading this, you no longer need worry about bus vs rail confusion. ;) Good vid, BTW, Rachel. :)
Pro tip: UW students travel for free on buses, commuter trains and the light rail with their student card (Student U-PASS) after having paid the UW quarterly transportation and activities fee ($84 per quarter) with every quarter they register for classes. Also, remember to tap out once you exit at your destination!
Thank you Rachel for this video honestly it help it me so much. I am new to Seattle with no car and I am planning to use public transportation for while and this so good you did this. Thanks again
Rachel, this is James at the hub. I wanted to meet with you but I didn't know if that. You've been on my mind and my heart forever. We need to meet we really do
To get to the cruise terminal at pier 91 from SeaTac airport, the best way is to take line 1 from the airport station to either University Street/Symphony or Westlake stations, which offer transfers to bus routes 24/33 (only 24 at the former station).
Giiiiirl I’m trying to move to Seattle later this year/early next year & your videos have been super helpful. You seem so chill & down to earth too, be my friend when I move 😭✨
Thank you for the lesson! I’ve never have done this before, but am flying to Seattle in a couple of weeks and was feeling anxious about how to purchase a ticket. I was afraid it would be complicated. Thank you again; I don’t feel as nervous about my lone trip!
AWESOME help :o) were coming in May for Cruise So I see there is a station at SEA airport, so when I purchase ticket what stop is best to stop off near downtown to get off then take cab to cruise port. This will save ALOT of money. Also if I purchase round trip do I need to use the tickets the same day or can I use the following Saturday after cruise back to the airport
Can you park your car at any of these stations? I am headed to Monster Jam on the weekend at Lumen Field, and it will save a lot of money to go by rail.
At 2:39, it says Downtown Seattle (transit tunnel), why is it specifying transit tunnel?? Also had someone tell me when I was over there "there's a underground subway" when I was in international. Maybe they were talking about the train?
If you qualify for Medicaid/Medicare go to the King County Social Security Administration office and fill out the form for subsidy and you can get an ORCA-Lift card and will pay half fare no matter the mode of transport.
Thanks for the info love. I'm traveling to Seattle from England for a week in September and intend on using the light rail from the airport to downtown and vice versa.
Thanks for the video .really helpful for future udub students like me !! Well, can u suggest any app that suggests routes ( like what lines and where to change trains, etc.) when u punch in the source and destination ? Plus I would like to request to make a video on the " Amazon go " seattle store ( the only in the world right now ) :)
Your video was very informative. Thanks for posting it. I will be heading up to Seattle on the 24th of this month to watch the A's take on the Mariners. I was wondering does the stadium destination on the north bound lite rail mean Safeco field. Can you get back to me on this as soon as you can.
Please Help!! 🤓 How will the Connect 2020 work!? We have a trip planned for Valentine's day weekend and we want to use the light rail from Sea-Tac to downtown Seattle. Do you know if that Will that still be available?
laBonita_esparza yes it is still available. You’ll need to make a real easy transfer at Pioneer square. Just exit to left and cross the platform to a waiting train that will continue to Westlake!
Hey Rachel 🙂 I'm planning on moving next month I'd love if u could help know a bit more since I won't be able to take my car 🚗 I'm playing on working for. Microsoft
Two things...To get more intoxicated people home without driving they should run until 3 in the morning to allow time to leave bars and get home. Billions of dollars spent and not a single bathroom anywhere.
You call 3 bucks expensive. Really a cab ride to Seattle after I checked is around 80 to 100 bucks from Seatac. Even an uber is 20 to 30 bucks one way. It would seem to me 3 bucks is dirt cheap.
Can people over 64 ride by themselves? Just a waste of time. I can't find the presented route and time schedule showed in the video (links please). Is there a bunch of these videos or is this it?
1:41 How... Thee... HELL...do u, “accidentally get on a Bus”?? If u can’t tell the difference between a Bus and a Train, u should probably just Stay Home! 🙄

Omg amazing advice! And I had no idea!!! Thank you!!
I guess I'm pretty randomly asking but does anybody know a good website to stream new movies online ?
Since I do not know how to speak English, I also use your videos to learn. Thanks again. A hug from your Brazilian friend.
Identify with being lost on the bus in Bellevue thank you for the video much-needed
This video struck me has a how to Basic. I think I've spent too much time in New York City
@Milan Dillon wut

Thank you Rachel for this video honestly it help it me so much. I am new to Seattle with no car and I am planning to use public transportation for while and this so good you did this. Thanks again
Thanks for the tips used this train to get to the baseball games and saved on not having to pay to park downtown
I’ve found if your just traveling within the city buying a day pass is ALWAYS cheaper it’s less than a round trip ♥️
I commute with the light rail but it was kind of interesting hearing somebody else explain it out thoroughly!
The background music is funky 🙂
Rachel, this is James at the hub. I wanted to meet with you but I didn't know if that. You've been on my mind and my heart forever. We need to meet we really do

Reminds me of the MUNI transit system in San Francisco. Nice!
Good information, thanks for posting this video

Your channel has been indispensable in helping me prepare for my move this summer, thanks so much!
Thanks so much for your kind comments!!
love the lightrail train, especially travel to the airport and back. very clean and convenient
You should do a video about using King County Metro buses, especially Rapid Ride buses!
thank you for this!! visiting seattle soon! very helpful 😊
Thank you for the lesson! I’ve never have done this before, but am flying to Seattle in a couple of weeks and was feeling anxious about how to purchase a ticket. I was afraid it would be complicated. Thank you again; I don’t feel as nervous about my lone trip!
You're so welcome. You got this!!!
Another pro tip: buses will be leaving the tunnel stops within a year
i live there and they did its so much better
Moving up to Seattle in like 10 days eeeeeeeek! Thanks for videos like this! We will be in greenwood
There's a Dicks Drive In, near Greenwood on Holman road best fast food in Seattle.
Awesome! I've only taken the Lightrail to Westlake station once from the airport, but it was so awesome! I love using public transit!
Just used it on Friday, as a tourist, worked well!
Yay!!! It’s really not too tricky!!
If you are interested in taking your webseries more mainstream, let's chat!
Thank you

This is a great guide. Keep it up! 👍
2:00. Thank you very helpful. 🐈🐕🐖🦙
For the late viewers, the Metro has ceased the bus operations inside the tunnel, and you must take the buses on the streets.
This helps sm plz post more stuff like this

Hello New GUS in my life Very Cool Thanks for Doing a Report on the Mass Transit. have a Star Bucks Coffee Some Time. Hi I am Robert.
I liked this informative video! I liked the mix of vlogging type tips coupled with the screencast voiceover. Awesome job! :D
Aw thank you so much Evie!
I lived in WA my entire life... I never knew Seattle had an underground light rail..
wHAT LOL
That train ding at 1:00 always gives me PTSD. I am always running to make the lightrail trying to get to international to make the sounder train.
Can you park your car at any of these stations? I am headed to Monster Jam on the weekend at Lumen Field, and it will save a lot of money to go by rail.
Thank You Seattle Seahawks and the Light Rail Way
Thanx
Northgate to stadium station? does it stops there or non stop.
At 2:39, it says Downtown Seattle (transit tunnel), why is it specifying transit tunnel?? Also had someone tell me when I was over there "there's a underground subway" when I was in international. Maybe they were talking about the train?
The transit tunnel was originally built for buses.
Great video! Thanks for posting. Any reccomednation on which Seattle neighborhood is best for not having a car? Im legally blind and don't drive.
If you qualify for Medicaid/Medicare go to the King County Social Security Administration office and fill out the form for subsidy and you can get an ORCA-Lift card and will pay half fare no matter the mode of transport.
McCall oh sweet! I was wondering about that! Does that apply to disability passes too?
@@Roma_eterna Yes, of course!
good video!!!!!!
Thanks for the info love. I'm traveling to Seattle from England for a week in September and intend on using the light rail from the airport to downtown and vice versa.
This thumbnail is everything girl! 😍

Thanks for the video .really helpful for future udub students like me !!

Plus I would like to request to make a video on the " Amazon go " seattle store ( the only in the world right now ) :)
I’ve made a video on it :)
Your video was very informative. Thanks for posting it. I will be heading up to Seattle on the 24th of this month to watch the A's take on the Mariners. I was wondering does the stadium destination on the north bound lite rail mean Safeco field. Can you get back to me on this as soon as you can.
It does, the stadium station is CenturyLink and Safeco.
I’m coming in September and planning to use the light rail. One question I assuming it runs 24hrs ?
Rachel this is really helpful thank you, love :)
Please Help!! 🤓 How will the Connect 2020 work!? We have a trip planned for Valentine's day weekend and we want to use the light rail from Sea-Tac to downtown Seattle. Do you know if that Will that still be available?

Hey Rachel 🙂 I'm planning on moving next month I'd love if u could help know a bit more since I won't be able to take my car 🚗 I'm playing on working for. Microsoft
Definitely try and live somewhere near Redmond :) I believe that’s where Microsoft is! Bellevue and Issaquah are also great options!
@@RachelWaldorf thank you so much 🙏 I can't wait to be there ,hope the weathers not to bad next for may lol
Have you tried parking your car on the train station (Tukwila station), then come back? Is that safe? Is it free or do you pay for that? Thanks
I haven’t in a while but when I lived there it was free and I never had issues with it not being safe
And it’s the same process from downtown back to the airport ?
Great videos. I got your channel today. I'm already with you on Instagram too.
Have you seen anyone do transit train with a stroller? We are coming with a baby
Have question
Is there a free transfer from the rail to the monorail
I don’t believe so
The monorail is its own thing and only in the downtown area
@@RachelWaldorf thank you
Don’t stand on the left side of an escalator!
And TIp the Waldorf please bird is the Word.

next video: best ice cream in seattle?
Funnest video ever!!
hehe...dont forget to include Bottega Italliana:)
Nutty Squirrel in Greenwood
You do not show the process of actually paying with an Orca card. Tried to use my orca card at light rail kiosk and got no where.
The only thing you have to know when using public transportation in Seattle is: Do not ever get on the bus number 7 past 8 pm.
Steelyournaim oh? Is that when the homeless/sketchy people ride?
i have yet to get on public transit here in my almost two years lol ... im always in uber lol
Not a terrible place to be! If you can afford to Uber or Lyft why not do it 🤗
Rachel Waldorf uh uh that’s to much money and I’m in debt lol 😝 so I need to start doing transit
Thank you for the video my Queen. 😋👨👨👧👄💖💋
You look beautiful 😍
Eres linda!
A one way trip is $3? That's quite expensive...
It’s $3 from end to end. If you go a shorter distance it’s cheaper!!
You call 3 bucks expensive. Really a cab ride to Seattle after I checked is around 80 to 100 bucks from Seatac. Even an uber is 20 to 30 bucks one way. It would seem to me 3 bucks is dirt cheap.
Rachel Waldorf can you get an unlimited pass?
when u mistake a bus for a train? lol
Major tip to using a train: get on a train
Hahahaha
I was thinking the same thing LMAO
Can people over 64 ride by themselves? Just a waste of time. I can't find the presented route and time schedule showed in the video (links please). Is there a bunch of these videos or is this it?
Awww she has cute eyes!
Buses going to go through there
And you have to wear your
Mask
1:41 How... Thee... HELL...do u, “accidentally get on a Bus”??
If u can’t tell the difference between a Bus and a Train, u should probably just Stay Home! 🙄
I want a car.
