This was perfect information. Thank you for taking the time to do a video for those of us who have never been to Seattle!
Colleen, you are so welcome! I hope you enjoy your time here in Seattle!
Thanks! This is awesome information for my upcoming trip to Seattle!
Your're welcome! I hope you have a great time!!
Thank you! I’ve been renting cars as I usually travel all over WA and hike. This trip I’m just staying around downtown so I’m skipping a rental to save money. I was worried about how to find the Light Rail but I feel very confident now.
Lovely! Enjoy your visit!

This is a great informative video, you should deserve more viewers and subscribers ... I subscribed to your channel ... Thank you.
You're so kind. I'm glad you enjoyed it and found it useful!
@@robinholliday2193 there are too many people out there wanted to know ... And, I know that ,because, I live just 5 minutes away from SeaTac airport and doing Lyft & Uber and people asked me question how easily to get to downtown, honestly, I will tell them about the link light rail, even while they are in my car after requesting UBER or Lyft, they thanked me but say "you are honest, I am already in your car and take me to downtown, but when I get back, I will try the public transportation like the Link rail...", it's funny, but yesterday, I put the same video on my TH-cam channel ... The point is it's not informative as yours but I think it helps too, again, thanks.
Coming for SakuraCon2022 in April!
Fantastic! April is a great time to visit!
Thank you for information, I Will be there in Seattle 29th november
Have a great trip!
This is exactly what I needed. Thank you!
Have a great time!
👍
Thank you for this...it is going to be very helpful when I arrive this July. A quick question please. Do you know if bicycles are allowed on the tran from the airport to downtown?
Yes they are allowed! Sometimes the trains can fill up if it's busy at the airport so when it arrives to the station, head to the last train as it is usually less full. There are hooks for bikes near some of the doors but some people just hold there bike and stay of to the side. Have fun in July!
informative and to the point. 👍
I heard there is a app you can use to buy the tickets for the light rail instead of the kiosk is that true?
Thanks for the feedback! Check out kingcounty.gov/depts/transportation/metro/fares-orca/transit-go-ticket.aspx for that app. It's fairly new and could be handy for multiple rides during a visit. If you are new to the area and aren't just visiting, getting an Orca card will be the way to go. If you try the app, let me know how it works out.
Far more useful than all the printed nonsense.
Short, use full! Thanks
Glad you found it useful! Have fun visiting.
I’ll be there as a travel nurse , do these trains accept orca cards? And does the airport have a station I can purchase an orca card? Would the card be usable immediately after? Also have you heard of VIA public transit ?
You can use an orca card but I do not recall a place to purchase them at the airport. If you have some time before traveling, you could order one online and have it delivered before your trip. There used to be a place at Westlake station but I'm not sure if it's still a thing with the pandemic and everything. I have not heard of VIA.
Once you purchase the tickets, is there a scanner around to scan your ticket to prove you paid or deduct your fare from the balance?
Yes. Those scanners will be located at the entrances of the light rail stations and also down in the tunnels. You don't need to scan tickets, just cards if those are purchases for longer stays.
Thank you so much. Because we have no clue, does this head towards Tacoma, near Matson? Sorry, we really have no idea what we're doing.
Unfortunately, it does not. Hopefully in the future!
@@robinholliday2193 aww sugar snaps. Thank you so much!
Question 1:25 is it possible to use an ORCA card here instead of buying a paper ticket? Is there a device to "tap" an ORCA card at the Airport light rail station? A friend of mine is going to snail mail me her physical ORCA card since she exclusively uses her phone app now.
Yes! If you have an orca card, you'll swipe it before and after your trip. Have fun during your visit!
Just flew out of Sea Tac. It was an absolute nightmare!😩
Oh wow. So what they are saying on the news is actually true? Sorry you had a bad experience!
Were going to take train from seattle to eugene oregon. But i dont know how to take train from seattle airport to king street station. Please advice me
Hi there! No worries. You'll ride the lightrail for 9 stops and get off at the Int'l Dist/Chinatown Station and then walk a block to King Street Station. I recommend using Google maps for specifics but if you say that you are starting at SeaTac and ending at King Street Station, it will give you everything you need. I hope this helps!
Will the rail take you from the airport to the cruise port?
Unfortunately no. You'll have to get off downtown and catch a bus or Uber/Lyft the rest of the way.
@@robinsrambles6634 Bummer! Thanks for replying.
ORCA card! Always use an ORCA card so you can transfer to buses without paying extra money. If the train won’t get you there, the bus would
Yes! If you live here and are not visiting, orca card is the way to go.
@@robinholliday2193 I visit at least once a year. Even visitors I recommend ORCA card vs buying individual tickets each time. This way you have access to the buses too.
If I’m only going to be in Seattle for 3 days should I get an ORCA card? We plan to only do public transportation to get around.
@@hiimlisax Yes. A PugetPass for $8 loaded on an ORCA card gets you on all of the transit without thinking about it. Hop on a bus, light rail, monorail, water taxi, it doesn’t matter, just tap the card.
@@CityLifeinAmerica thanks so much! I appreciate the help!
