[Air-L] SEATAC to the Hotel

[Jean Burgess]

It's true that the Renaissance doesn't have its own shuttle, but according
to the Internet it seems that the Downtown Airporter ($15 one way) does
drop off there:

Doubt it would be quicker than the train but if you have unwieldy
luggage/enormous jetlag/limited mobility this could be a good option...

Cheers from Vancouver, where we are eagerly waiting to get on our last
flight...
