Seattle-Tacoma International Airport and partners are reaching a major milestone for the International Arrivals Facility (IAF) late this evening. The center span of the elevated pedestrian walkway will be moved down the closed center runway overnight, followed by a complex lift and installation sequence outside of the South Satellite.
To keep you informed on what’s happening outside your airport window, we’ve rounded up resources specific to the IAF pedestrian walkway, links to our social media channels, and areas around SEA Airport with amazing views of this modern marvel in the making.
