Sea-Tac Airport parking garage rates are going up by more than 30% to $8 an hour starting Thursday, June 1.

Weekly parking jumped from $169 to $222. Airport managers claimed inflation and tax increases are part of the reason for the price increases.

Some of the money will be used for upgrades, including more EV charging stations and extra digital help for drivers looking for a parking spot. Previous funds have been used for a major electrical project doubling electric vehicle charging stations in the garage, the installation of new LED lighting, and a smart camera parking guidance system with digital way-finding signage.

The system鈥痠ndicates鈥痶he availability of parking stalls, including specific color indicators for dedicated stalls like ADA-accessible鈥痑nd electric vehicles.
