Airport terminal was selected as one of top
ten small airports in the nation as part of 2024 Newsweek's
Reader's Choice Award
SEATTLE, July 1, 2024
/PRNewswire/ -- Propeller Airports is pleased to announce that the
Seattle Paine Field Passenger Terminal has received Newsweek's
Reader's Choice Award for Best Small Airport in the U.S. Seattle
Paine Field took third place among a long list of exceptional
airports around the country. This award is added to Seattle Paine
Field's portfolio of accolades acknowledging the terminal's
exceptional customer service, serene environment, and upscale
amenities.
"We are honored to receive this award acknowledging Seattle
Paine Field as one of the best small airports in the nation,"
said Brett Smith, CEO of
Propeller Airports. "Since the terminal's inception, we have
worked hard to ensure that Seattle Paine Field offers the best
possible service and experience for our customers, and it is
gratifying to see industry leaders continue to recognize our
work."
Nominees for this award are carefully selected by a panel of
travel experts including writers whose work has appeared in
Condé Nast Traveler, Business Insider, and Modern
Luxury. Seattle Paine Field is among long-established airports
like Missoula Montana Airport and Lexington Kentucky's Blue Grass Airport in
receiving this reader-based recognition.
In granting the award, Newsweek highlighted the terminal's
"sleek and modern" design and its "customer-centric experience for
air passengers with a lounge-like atmosphere and locally sourced
food options."
While Paine Field's Passenger Terminal is relatively young with
just over five years of commercial passenger service operations,
the airport is changing the landscape for airports in the U.S. with
its unparalleled passenger experience, state-of-the-art facility,
and tranquil environment. The terminal features floor-to-ceiling
glass windows, fireplaces, lounge-style seating, and glass
jet-bridges.
Propeller's public-private partnership with Snohomish County is still a rarity in
the United States but is a very
common and successful practice abroad. In addition to providing
residents with a close, convenient option for air travel, the
partnership with Snohomish County
has resulted in tremendous economic success for the region,
creating new jobs, supporting local businesses, and saving
taxpayer's dollars.
