What is the best way to get from the Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (SEA) and the Sheraton Grand Seattle?

Taxi/Rideshare is the quickest and most efficient way to get to the venue. Alternatively, if you do not want to take a Taxi/Rideshare, you can take the Light Link Rail. Rail service runs from the airport to downtown Seattle from 5:00 AM - 2:00 AM Monday-Saturday every 6-15 minutes. From the airport, board the rail at the SEATAC-Airport Station and take it to Westlake Station (approx. 45 min.). Westlake Station is a 4-minute walk from the Sheraton Grand Seattle. Find detailed instructions HERE.
