Sacramento International Airport (SMF) serves as the primary gateway for California’s capital region, functioning mainly as a domestic and some international connection point rather than a major global hub. It typically hosts a mix of legacy and low-cost carriers, so fares can be competitive compared with larger Bay Area airports. The airport lies about 10–15 miles northwest of downtown Sacramento; drive times usually run 15–25 minutes by car depending on traffic, or roughly 20–30 minutes by taxi or rideshare with fares often falling in a moderate range. Public transit options include regional buses and light rail connections via shuttle or short bus link, taking 30–50 minutes. Pros: compact terminals, shorter security lines and convenient parking; cons: fewer nonstop long-haul options and potentially higher weekend demand during holiday periods.
Seattle–Tacoma International Airport (SEA) serves as the region’s main international and domestic gateway, handling a mix of full-service and low-cost carriers—Delta and Alaska Airlines have a strong presence while several budget airlines also operate. Located about 14 miles (22 km) south of downtown Seattle, travel time by Link light rail is roughly 35–45 minutes with fares typically in the low single digits; rideshare or taxi can take 20–40 minutes depending on traffic and cost more. The airport is well-equipped with lounges, dining, and transit links, making it convenient for connections; during peak hours congestion and parking costs can be less comfortable for budget travelers.
