The Port is also involved in moving people, whether it is traveling for business or for pleasure. Sea-Tac Airport serves 76 domestic and 20 international destinations and over 31 million passengers annually, one in 10 of them on an international flight. The convention center itself boasts a free public art gallery that provides an opportunity for people of different cultures to enjoy a common experience.
