    Lil woodys burgers and baggage claim signs.

    Plenty of restaurants to choose from. Avoid Lil woody's as the wait staff and manager were rude after I purchased my food from the kiosk.

    It's a terminal. Everything was there and we got on the plane. There could've been better seating at the gates.

    This place has def improved and love it. I do wish they had more fast food type options but whatever. Also if you have a pet or service animal- the animal bathroom down by the train is awesome and big. It doesn't have any privacy but plenty of room to sniff and pee. You do need a little extra time getting to this terminal. They also have the flights on Alaska to Hawaii out of N gate usually. They have a special spot for Covid paperwork / etc Def a nice new addition to SeaTac

    As a terminal 2 fan was sad to see it go it left whe in my heart flew out on Alaska fir years. Terminal three doesn't have the small family feel but dies have great art work and resteraunts. Ha e not tried them usually leave to early get back to late but I do look forward too. The dog stations so cute!

    (Note: Reposting this review as the previous entry for the North Satellite Terminal was combined with the primary listing for Seattle-Tacoma International Airport.) Did you know that Airport Terminals is now a category on Yelp? Now that this is a category, I am reviewing one of the two satellite terminals at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, the North Satellite terminal. The other terminal is the South Satellite of which most international flights depart from. The North Satellite terminal is completely occupied by Alaska Airlines. To reach the North Satellite, you need to take the people mover system to reach it. Make sure to take the right one as one heads in the other direction towards the South Satellite terminal. From the Central terminal, it is a two stop train ride to the North Satellite. If you need to make a connection from the North Satellite to the South Satellite, this would mean taking one train to the Central terminal and switching to the other train as the people mover trains only go back and forth. The food options at North Satellite is similar to what you would find at South Satellite which is to say that it is limited. There is a Burger King, Starbucks and a couple restaurants here. If you are looking for a bite at the airport, I would recommend finding something at the Central terminal since there are more options there than at this terminal. If you are looking to shop in this terminal, there are just a few options. But there is a duty free store here. While I have flown very little from this terminal, I have flown often out of the South Satellite terminal which has just about the same layout. My suggestions in flying out of this terminal is to bring something to eat or find something in the Central terminal before coming here. And to give yourself some extra time commuting to and from this terminal since you need to take the people mover system to reach it.

    The North Satélite terminal is nice and clean and has shops and restaurants for last-minute needs. To get there, go through terminal D to get to the train. The train in the right hand side when you come down the stairs will take you directly to the N gates. The ride is pretty short and the trains come frequently, so it doesn't add too much time to get to your gate- maybe an additional 10 minutes to get to your gate.

    As other Yelpers have reported the North Satellite (N) Terminal at Seattle-Tacoma Airport is a messy construction area. My rating will be considered temporary since I am expecting great renovations that are necessary for this section of SeaTac. The good news is that the Alaska Air lounge remains a beautiful facility upstairs in the Mezzanine level. They need to upgrade all the restrooms and improve seating in all gate locations. Hoping new restaurants and shops will eventually move in. I like the North Terminal since it's away from the main access and gives a nice isolation from the hustle and bustle away from the C and D Terminals.

It was helpful that there was a directory at the shuttle pickup islands indicating where each destination did pickups. But the signage and maps were initially confusing, and it had not been clear what level lead to hotel shuttles. Departure May 10 $ALK heading back to San Francisco. Arrived via Norwegian $NCLH port to airport shuttle $30, purchased at the port entire bus unloaded near Alaska Airlines, where $ALK $DAL both had luggage tagging available, you could also request mobility assistance but the waiting area on the lower level was jammed on this Sunday morning. this was the start of the Alaska cruising season so numerous ships were loading and unloading guests. Lots Alaska cruisers have mobility assistance needs so Sundays will be significantly impacted during the Alaska cruise season Months I would suggest if able to skip the mobility and bag tagging on the lower level , and just continue to the upper level if able and if you have priority status. Security was not bad but remove laptops, iPads from bags. if your shaving kit has bottles that are large containing liquids pack them into a checked bag. FYI, if flying Alaska $ALK, and you pay for your ticket with the base fee credit card you can check one bag at no cost, 1st class you get 2 checked bags per flight. Bag fees can justify the Credit Card Fee or enhanced Fare Seat Purchase. TSA was on my day painless, I present a passport when flying or cruising. Movement within the terminal was easy via the internal rail. Needed to use the toilet near my gate, and all of the toilets had their rolls of tissue Exhausted, I Pack a roll of tissue in my carry bag in addition to wipes just in case of situations like this. Terminal felt slightly claustrophobic, and gate lounges were full with barely enough seating. The positive was that you walk less, but the spaces feel full. SEA and SFO move near equal number of passengers, but SEA felt far more crowded on my departure days.

Currently it looks and feels pretty run down and beat up. Interestingly they've clearly done a remodel in the past 10 years or so because the bathroom has a totally different vibe than the rest of the place - I wish they had kept the old vibe, the bathroom is bright, clean, and modern - while the rest of the place is going for a "cozy" vibe I think, but it just doesn't hit. I'm looking forward to seeing what the remodel/extension turns out to be and hopefully improving my rating. This time through they did have cookies and chips alongside the small soup bar which was an improvement as last time they only had some odd soups and pastas which I wasn't into.

It's a bummer that Amex has taken away companion option. Since we were already pretty late - there is so much we could eat/drink. Given we had a long red eye flight - we decided to go in. The guy was sweet enough to offer me a free entry. In retrospect that makes sense - what are they gonna do with leftovers anyways. May just earn some positive PR - and they surely did from my end. I took his permission if I can put him on a review. Talking about lounge - pretty good ambience, have been to other Seattle airport lounges and this one is the best. The food on the night was average but loved the carrot-turmeric-shot. The cookie were also pretty freshly baked. I would recommend trying Egg Salad which was probably the best dish this night.

Food was just average. Not impressed with the selection and quality of dishes. I believed the only three great things about this lounge were the "Blue Roast", plane spotting and courteous dining staff. I paid $50 for my wife and I believed it wasn't worth it. Used and paid Delta Sky Lounge twice during our travel for $50 each and both times were worth it and zero wait times! If you have access to different lounge try it first so less stress while traveling!
