SEA airport says “pay attention, gentle readers”
Have you been watching Bridgerton? Evidently the social media team at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (SEA) has. Their feed is currently full of Bridgerton-themed travel tips. And they’re very charming.

Our completed Upgrade SEA projects are dazzling indeed. This author reminds you that construction is evident, πΆππΉ ππππππΎπππ ππΆππ½ππ πΉπΎππππΆπΈππΎππ, at SEA. Do promenade to the south end skybridges & doors/exits to steer clear of crowded thoroughfares. pic.twitter.com/0mkBQnuLDl

Surely you did not think you could arrive late and still make your voyage on time. You must make haste and arrive two hours before your flight. pic.twitter.com/vNmH0FTRj4

We do hope you will consider alternatives for arriving at the airport. We hear good things about πππππππππ, public transit, Link light rail, taxi, ride share options, shuttles, and airporters. pic.twitter.com/3Q9PIQ0zv6

It is no laughing matter. Must we remind you to switch it up in order to speed it up. During the most bustling hours, one should utilize the Lower Arrivals Drive for all drop-offs and the Upper Departures Drive to pick up. pic.twitter.com/FR8u02FnhO

Finding out your traveling companions are not in fact members of an expedited travel program such as TSA PreCheck or CLEAR. Do make haste and secure a booking through SEA Spot Saver. pic.twitter.com/1lK7K2EUAg

Tag along and then be sure to take in a few of the great exhibits at SFO Airport next time you’re there. We’ve arranged a long layover at SFO this week just so we can see the Airplane Model exhibit in the International Terminal.
So many new things are popping up at airports for the holiday season. Here are just some of the items we spotted over the weekend.
Toy Planes at St. Louis Lambert Int’l Airport
Toys Take Flight is a new exhibit by the Field House Museum now in the Lambert Gallery at St. Louis Lambert International Airport (STL). In addition to toy airplanes and model plane kits, the exhibit includes some great photographs.
Avatar at Sinagpore Changi Airport
The Light & Sound show inspired by 'Avatar: The Way of Water' (in cinemas 15 December 2022) plays exclusively at the HSBC Rain Vortex twice nightly till 2 Jan. Catch it at either 8.30pm or 10.30pm when you're at #JewelChangiAirport! #ChangiFestiveVillagepic.twitter.com/x6ifwYmAoY
Little Free Libraries Filling Up at Seattle-Tacoma Int’l Airport
You may have noticed Little Free Libraries in your neighborhood encouraging people to leave books and take books. Some airports around the country host Little Free Libraries too, and Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (SEA) is the newest addition. Look for two artist-painted Little Free Libraries at SEA. One is at the top of the escalator leading down to the SEA Underground train at Concourse A and the other is in front of the Children’s Play Area in Concourse A.
Last time we passed through the airport we were pleased to see that the Free Little Library by the play area was chock full of kids books.
In a ‘normal’ year, we’d be going to airports all the time. And in many of those airports, there would be local musicians playing for us while we wait for our flights.
The pandemic means that in most airports, live music isn’t happening. And it also means the musicians who would have been playing at airports have lost those gigs. And the income from those gigs.
While we wait for that programming to come back, SEA is doing what it can for the musicians. And for passengers who miss the music.
The airport has just installed a new 12X7-foot, high-resolution digital LED music wall on Concourse C that is showing a two-hour program highlighting more than 30 musicians who played at the airport before the pandemic.
Enjoy it here or in the airport. And tip the musicians if you can.
