You RUclips people who make these kind of detailed public transit walkthroughs are amazing! It gives me so much more confidence while planning any of my trips.
I highly recommend getting the ORCA Card any time someone rides public transportation in Seattle! The card is only $3 and you just load it up with funds. It supports electronic transfers between all modes of public transportation (between Du Pont in the south through Everett in the north) within a 3 hour span and you're only charged the highest fair out of all of the trips that you do. You'll save a ton of money by using this instead of paying for each separate trip.
@@raffinataonline Yes, the ORCA card can be used to transfer onto the monorail as well. You can use it to transfer between any of the below services: All Pierce County Metro services All Kitsap Transit services (including the water taxi/fast ferries) All King County Metro services (including the Seattle Streetcar and Monorail) All Community Transit services (including the Swift BRT) All Everett Transit services All Sound Transit services (Link light rail, Sounder commuter rail, and Express busses) You can also use ORCA to pay for fares for the below services, although transfers aren't supported: All Washington State Ferries from WSDOT (does not accept ORCA regional or monthly passes) Amtrak Cascades between Seattle and Everett (requires ORCA monthly pass)
I'm looking at getting an orca card when I arrive in seattle next month, I'll be there for 5 days but not sure how much I'd need to put on it? do they do set number of days pass or anything?
@@lordteabelly Depending on how often you see yourself riding public transit, you can make $25-30 stretch for a fairly long time because of transfers. Otherwise you can load the ORCA card with the $8 regional day pass which will work on all fares up to $3.50.
I'm going to Seattle this Wednesday with my umbrella. Thanks so much for your video. I took notes. Happy Valentine's Day to you. Greetings from Chicago.
Thank you for the detailed video! It was our first time in Seattle and we needed to get from the airport to our hotel located downtown. Your instructions for getting to the Link Light rail and purchasing tickets made our trip very easy.
@@foodloverasian143 YES!!! Will look for it now. I'm going from SEA to Pan Pacific Hotel, I think SEA to Westlake and walking about 15 minutes from there to the hotel, not sure if there's anything closer. I don't mind walking 15 minutes but will have luggages.
@@TheOriginalMarimoChanHi ! Just another follower here going to Seattle next week. Did you find it challenging taking the light rail with big luggages ? And how was the walk from the station to your hotel? TIA !!
I will be going in July and am a little nervous trying to get to light rail with the stuff I have to carry to Westlake from SEA-TAC. Hope I survive with all the walking and carrying stuff. Great video though!
Just an update . The entry point at the end of the baggage claim is currently closed for renovations. Plenty of other access points though. Also fare for a senior is $1 …Fantastic journey
Excellent video! Made step by step in order to be precise and easy to understand. This will help me save 75 bucks in Uber/Lyft in a safe and sound way. Thanks!
Thank you for explaining this option so clearly. We are 3 seniors traveling to Seattle during the week of Labor Day. We will be buying our Reduced Fare Pass before our trip. I originally was going to rent a car at the airport for the week but as public transportation seems fairly easy and our hotel,is charging $35 a day for parking then we are going to opt for the light rail. We’ll rent a car for a few days versus the whole week so we can travel outside of Seattle.
Great. And just FYI. They are having issue at the Chinatown and downtown location right now. It might be not open this month due to some broken ceilings. I think it is only open from airport to stadium station. But please check the website for further info
I'm coming home in Aug, all the flights land at midnight and I have to figure out how to get to Port Orchard...... This would be great, but I think you said they stop at midnight, also need to catch the ferry so I doubt they run at 2am also, btw When did it get so crazy expensive :(
I love light rail in Seattle I have have orca card I hear make light rail station Lynwood wa and other place bellevue Federal Way stations coming soon I think the one in Lynnwood wa is coming soon in march! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ I have a ❤😎😎😎👍👍👍👍
Unfortunately not. U need to walk blocks or you can Uber to the cruise ship. It’s rather close but I wouldn’t recommend it to walk if you have luggages
thank you for sharing with us this amazing help I'm a brazilian and i'm planning to travel to seattle to visit bruce lee's grave and your video will help me a lot when I get there.
Heading there tomorrow afternoon, my hotel is a few blocks from where he ended up so it's just a walk to the hotel. Thanks for making this! Almost had to take a cab and read some stories about how expensive, long wait, and potentially rude drivers and price gouging (taking the long way on purpose). Now, lets say I need to head back to the airport from Westlake station, could I purchase a one way ticket at the kiosk there?
Hope you are enjoying and having a good time in seattle. Yes. You can buy a one way ticket back to the airport. Also the kiosk provides an all day ticket as well for the options
If your destination is westlake center. There are many hotel options such as Sheraton and Weston and even great Hyatt. Super close and convenient by walking
There is no station for Seattle Center unfortunately. U need to get off at westlake station. Then you will need to take mono rail for additional cost or you need to take a bus or taxi/Uber
Thank you so much for watching. Depends on where your hotel is. If you are staying downtown. It is super convenient to use this train to your destination and the best value

Hello. Thanks for the video. Google maps says we need to take the 1 line to University St, walk to 3rd Ave & Seneca St and catch the E Line at Aurora Village Transit Center. What tickets do we buy for that?
There's generally enough space in the train, and the train is typically empty when you embark at Seatac. Depending on the size of your back you can stick it under your seat.
I visited Seattle a few months ago, I took the train from airport to Westlake and i waited over hour. At least 3 trains going in opposite direction went by. Due to the delay I missed the last monorail to Climate Pledge, had to take uber from westlake to climate pledge. Prior to this while paying for my ticket a local told me no ones ever pays since there they don't take your ticket. I don't understand how their transportation system stays in business.
I'm staying at the Renaissance on Madison...would the closest stop be the University Street station? I'm debating if I should get off there and Uber to the hotel or walk. Whatever is safest. Any insight is much appreciated!
With the location of the hotel. I think university or westlake is probably about the same distance. Depending on the time of day, you may need to consider how you want to get to the hotel from the station
Flown to airports all over the world Sea Tac twice now. Worst experience both times. Under construction. Absolutely no help for handicap. Helped an elderly man locate a restroom after he urinated himself. No sitting or standing room for early arrivals. I'm guessing Seattle wanted everyone to have that full homeless experience. The airport is modeled after Seattle.
Hi thanx for the tips..are you indonesian? Because u said Sampai Jumpa lagi… Can you give me comparisona how much did it cost for taxi from Airport into downtown? Because i’m family with 3 kids, and of course with 4 big luggages. Terima Kasih
Hallo halllo. Iya saya orang indo juga. Thank you yah atas support nya. If you want to take a taxi, right now the cost is about $45 one way flat fee plus tips. I think it is such a deal also. Even though, train will be every economical. If if you don’t mind, taxi is also a great deal with you have family and luggages. Uber is definitely way more expensive than taxi. Hope that helps but please ask any questions. Seneng sekali kali bisa membantu
@@foodloverasian143 Hi again bro, if we use light train and stop at westlake station, assume if we landing at 18.00, all the immigration & luggage things, then 1 hour ride with the train, we will arrived at westlake around 8 PM..it is safe if we (parents with 3 kids) walk with big luggages to the hotel nearby? thank you
Salam Kenal. Saya baru pindahan ke Newcastle dari San Diego! Boleh kenalan and be your friend ? Where I can find Indonesian community in nearby Seattle ?
U just make sure to keep your ticket incase the train police come and request to show them your ticket. If you have orca card, then you need to tap it before you enter the train
@@mikaylamartin6367 idk if it's too late, but there's absolutely no need to take an Uber from Westlake to Belltown. It's like a 5 minute walk. Not dangerous at all as long you aren't hanging around in the middle of the night. Basically, just use common sense as you would when navigating any city.
No. It is not free. Depending. There is a shuttle for some distance that included on the train ticket cost. But it’s not to travel too far. Depending on your destination
There are two stations. Depending on where you wanna go. For university campus there is the stadium station which is university of Washington station. Or if you need to go in the heart of uw which is the restaurant and shopping area, you need to take u district station
Visitors shouldn't stay in downtown either due to higher crime and blight. There are plenty of decent and less expensive places to stay around the airport in SeaTac and Tukwila. Even before SHTF visitors have been staying near the airport in SeaTac and taking public transportation into town as a day trip.
I was looking for an in-depth video to show how you get to the light rail from the airport as we fly in on Saturday and I have never been to Seattle. However, to deem something as “lazy” is really unfortunate. I specifically needed to see this route because my mom can’t walk. She has a rollator which I will be carrying along with all of our luggage. We hope to have a wheelchair waiting for us as requested, but one never knows. But this looks like it is not going to work for us. Just a note though, if you want to appeal to all travelers, maybe dont ostracize people.
@@ScorpioMissBrenda I didn’t ask for your opinion. This comment was meant for the person posting the video and a friendly suggestion to remember not all people have the same abilities.
This is nonsense. Perfectly safe as long as you aren't hanging around looking for trouble in the middle of the night. On any given day you'll find thousands of tourists and ordinary people walking around in that area.
