Mascots.

Sports teams have them. Schools have them. Theme parks have them. And airports have them too.

The Stuck at the Airport team has encountered cute mascots at airports nationwide and around the world and is delighted that our home airport, Seattle Tacoma International Airport (SEA) now has one too.

Just in time for the busy holiday travel season, Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (SEA) debuted Jett the SEA Otter, which airport officials say is pronounced S-E-A like the airport code.

Multiple regional mascots rolled out the red carpet for Jett during the mascot’s debut in SEA’s Central Terminal.

We’re looking forward to meeting Jett and getting a selfie.
