Tips for Cheap New York to Seattle Flights

1Book morning flights to avoid weather delays. Seattle's notorious rain and fog cause afternoon delays and cancellations. Early JFK or Newark departures land by lunchtime Pacific, beating most weather disruptions and giving you a full day.
2Alaska Airlines offers the best Seattle experience. As the dominant carrier in the Pacific Northwest, Alaska has more flight times, better award availability, and knows how to handle Seattle weather delays better than East Coast airlines.
3Pack rain gear year-round. Seattle's reputation is earned with 150+ rainy days annually. Bring a waterproof jacket even in summer, though June through September sees the driest weather and highest flight prices.
4Avoid summer peak season for savings. June through August brings sunshine, tourists, and $450+ fares. Fly in May or September for similar weather at $200-300 less, with fewer crowds at Pike Place Market and the Space Needle.
5Use the light rail from the airport. Seattle's Link light rail connects Sea-Tac Airport to downtown in 40 minutes for $3, beating $50+ Uber rides. Saves money for coffee at the original Starbucks and fresh fish at Pike Place.

💡Savings tip: Book 6-8 weeks ahead for the best New York to Seattle fares. Flexibility with dates can save you 20-30%.
