Cheap Flights To Seattle, WA

Visit Seattle

Nick-named the "Emerald City", this Pacific Northwest metropolis sits on the Puget Sound surrounded by mountains and evergreens; its pop-culture image famously includes rain, coffee, and grunge-rock, but Seattle is so much more.

Recreation opportunities in the city (and surrounding areas) are unsurpassed: mountain climbing, white water rafting, fishing and whale watching are just a few of the activities favored by locals and visitors.

Seattle also offers a sophisticated nightlife scene featuring blues, hip-hop, rock and plenty of dance clubs - not to mention exquisite dining venues, dynamic museum exhibits and much more.

Oh, and about that reputation for rain? Seattle's annual precipitation is less than New York's, Atlanta's, Miami's, Boston's and...well, you'll just have to see for yourself.
