360Flex how to get to the Red Lion

When you land at Sea-Tac, you've got two main choices for getting to the Red Lion. When Tom and I came for our on-site meeting, we took the Gray Line Airporter. Round Trip it's like $17.00 a person, and get's you to within a block or so of the Red Lion. You can spend $5.00 more and they'll go right to the Red Lion, but save the dough, you can get off at the Sheraton stop or The Crown Plaza stop, walk a block and be five bucks richer, and a smidge more healthy feeling.

Taxi's are the second option, and according to the gal at the airport a taxi ride to the Red Lion will run you a cool $45.00 dollars or so, give or take the route the cabby takes, and how crooked he or she might be. :)

If you got some friends, maybe you're a team who is coming, the taxi might be a good option, but otherwise, we recommend the Gray Line, it's pretty quick and comfy, and much less creepy than most cabs.

Also in light of the traffic advisory, a cab will have the added benefit of taking longer, and running the fare up while enjoying the lovely smell of cherry poppit.

if you're really thrifty, you can also get equally close to the hotel from the airport using the regular metro bus. The #194 is reasonable fast, and will drop you off at 4th and University, right near the hotel. The #174 is the non-express version of the bus, and takes a lot longer (and smells worse) so look for the 194 if you can.
