Location insights

Where Seattle Airport moves

SEA fans four concourses, A through D, off one central terminal, with the North and South Satellites reached by the SEA Underground. Alaska Airlines and Delta anchor the banks. Mornings push early departures across the concourses, midday holds steady connecting dwell with about a quarter of traffic transferring, and evenings fill arrivals and the International Arrivals Facility. The people mover repeats exposure between satellites. Buy the banks, not the dead hours.

Location intelligence summary

One city, several audiences a day

Seattle Airport doesn't have a rush hour; it has flight banks. Departures peak in the morning, long-haul arrivals land in waves, and between them travelers dwell for 60–90 minutes with phones often stowed. The buying model that matches that is hourly: pay for the banks when your audience is captive, skip the dead hours.

Match the tide, not the calendar

A month-long 24/7 rotation pays for 3 AM plays nobody sees. Hourly booking concentrates the same budget into Seattle Airport’s proven peak windows, and typically saves 30%+ versus a flat four-week flight.

Creative by daypart

Morning commuters read in 2 seconds; evening crowds dwell for minutes. Run different creative by hour on the same screens, even trigger swaps on weather or live data.
