Fourth of July weekend is projected to break several travel records, both locally and nationwide.
projects 200,000 people will likely travel through the airport for the day -- that’s more than the population of Bellevue. It would be the highest volume of passengers in SEA’s history, but the final count could be lower depending on cancellations, delays, and other factors, according to spokesperson Perry Cooper.
Meanwhile, travelers have continued to be hampered by cancellations and delays thanks to poor weather across the country. “Flights have been grounded -- the lady next to me had major delays,” a traveler from Texas at Sea-Tac told KIRO 7. “They were trying to catch a cruise, they’ve been three days delayed to try to get on the boat. She’s rushing to it right now, so I think delays are happening across the board. But we’re here!”Driving won’t be any easier for Fourth of July holiday plans, with Washington still boasting the highest gas prices in the country.
