Methodology: learn how we calculate these charts

The charts “When is the cheapest time to fly?”, “How far in advance should I book?”, “What's the cheapest day of the week to fly?” and “What do round-trip flights from Seattle to Philadelphia cost?” are built from the prices Priceline customers actually paid for flights on this route over the past 12 months or more.

Where a route has too few bookings to fill every point in a chart, we borrow the shape of the curve from a group of routes with similar price behavior and fit it to the fares booked on this route.

Because past fares don’t reflect today’s market, we then adjust the historical prices for current conditions such as inflation and fuel costs, using the round-trip fares found in recent searches on this route.

The chart “When is the best time of day to fly?” is calculated directly from the fares found in recent searches, not from historical bookings.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about flying from Seattle to Philadelphia.

What is the typical flight duration from Seattle to Philadelphia?

Flights from Seattle to Philadelphia cover about 2,370 miles. The typical nonstop flight takes 5 hours 10 minutes eastbound, while the return leg westbound takes 6 hours, making the westbound direction about 50 minutes longer.
Methodology
Flight times and distances come from our flight-schedule database, which combines published airline timetables, U.S. government schedule data from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS), and observed flight operations from the EUROCONTROL/OpenSky Open Performance Data Initiative (OPDI). The typical flight time is the median scheduled block time across all carriers on the route, computed the same way in both directions so the difference reflects prevailing winds rather than any change in method. Distance is the great-circle distance between the two airports, so the actual flown track is typically 2-5% longer.

Are there any direct flights from Seattle to Philadelphia?

American Airlines, Alaska Airlines, and Delta Air Lines all fly nonstop from Seattle to Philadelphia, each operating daily. Together they offer up to 42 nonstop flights per week, with departures spread across the morning, midday, and late evening. All three carriers run the route every day of the week.
Methodology
Airlines and weekly frequencies are compiled from our flight-schedule database, which combines published airline timetables, U.S. government schedule data from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS), and observed flight operations from the EUROCONTROL/OpenSky Open Performance Data Initiative (OPDI). We count each operating carrier's scheduled weekly departures and the days it flies; where there is no nonstop service, connecting carriers are identified by linking scheduled nonstop segments through common hub airports. Where a median fare is shown for a carrier, it reflects the real fares Priceline users found on this route in the last 72 hours.

What are the ground transportation options in Philadelphia?

Philadelphia International Airport sits roughly 7 miles from Center City, with the SEPTA Airport Regional Rail Line providing the fastest and most-used public transit link, running trains every 30 minutes directly to downtown stations including 30th Street, Suburban, and Jefferson. Taxis offer a flat $32 rate to the Center City zone, while rideshare pickups are at Zone 7 and three SEPTA bus routes (37, 108, 115) serve the airport for budget travel. Rental car counters are in a nearby facility with shuttle service, and private car services or hotel shuttles round out the options. The SEPTA train is generally the best choice for speed and cost, while taxis and rideshares offer the most direct door-to-door convenience.

When is the cheapest time to fly from Seattle to Philadelphia?

Fares from Seattle to Philadelphia are lowest in late January, around $365. February is the cheapest month overall, averaging $372, followed by January ($372) and March ($394). July is the most expensive month at about $488, and fares peak in late December at about $519. The yearly average is $427. Fares are adjusted to current market conditions.
Methodology
Seasonal fares come from Priceline's own air booking-summary archive, analysed in-house and refreshed monthly. For each day of the year we take a representative round-trip fare, a blend of the 25th-percentile and average ticket price over the route's bookings, and smooth the series into a seasonal curve; the half-month low and high and the monthly figures quoted here are averages of that curve. Thin and international routes borrow their seasonal shape from the nearest busy routes, with the price level anchored to the route's own bookings.

How far in advance should I book tickets from Seattle to Philadelphia?

Book about 4 weeks before departure for the best fares from Seattle to Philadelphia, around $363. Booking in the final days before the flight costs about $443, $80 more. Booking six months ahead runs about $448. Fares are adjusted to current market conditions.
Methodology
Booking-window guidance comes from the same monthly in-house analysis of Priceline's own air booking-summary archive. We aggregate the route's bookings by how many days before departure they were made, from about 180 days out to the day of travel, smooth the curve, and highlight the stretch of lead times with the lowest average fare. Thin and international routes borrow the curve shape from the nearest busy routes, anchored to the route's own price level. It reflects current fares and is refreshed monthly.

Are overnight (red‑eye) flights available from Seattle to Philadelphia?

Yes, overnight red-eye flights operate nonstop from Seattle to Philadelphia daily, with Delta, Alaska, and American each running one each night. Departures cluster in the late evening, roughly between 9:20 PM and 10:35 PM, landing the next morning between about 5:29 AM and 6:48 AM.
Methodology
Red-eye flights are identified from scheduled local departure and arrival times and block times in our flight-schedule database — built from published airline timetables and official schedule data, including U.S. Department of Transportation records for domestic routes. A flight counts as a red-eye when it departs in the afternoon or evening (3 p.m. or later local time) or in the early hours before 4 a.m., and is in the air at some point between midnight and 4 a.m. local time at both its departure airport and its arrival airport. An evening flight that lands before midnight at its destination is never counted, nor is a morning departure or a daytime long-haul that reaches the next calendar date only because of time zones. Each red-eye is labelled with its timing (for example, overnight and landing the next morning, or late-night and landing after midnight). For connecting itineraries the same rule is applied to the longer leg, from one representative day's flight search.

Which airlines usually operate this route from Seattle to Philadelphia?

American Airlines, Alaska Airlines, and Delta Air Lines operate nonstop from Seattle to Philadelphia. American flies 21 times weekly with departures at 08:20, 12:40, and 22:35; Alaska operates 14 weekly flights departing at 08:28 and 22:02; Delta flies daily at 21:20. All three carriers operate daily service on the route.
Methodology
Airlines and weekly frequencies come from our flight-schedule database, which combines published airline timetables, U.S. government schedule data from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS), and observed flight operations from the EUROCONTROL/OpenSky Open Performance Data Initiative (OPDI). We count each operating carrier's scheduled weekly departures and the days it flies; where there is no nonstop service, connecting carriers are identified by linking scheduled nonstop segments through common hub airports. Where a typical fare is shown for a carrier, it is the median of the real fares Priceline users found on this route in the last 72 hours.

How reliable are on‑time arrivals on this route from Seattle to Philadelphia?

American Airlines lands within 15 minutes of schedule 78.9% of the time with a 1.0% cancellation rate, making it the most reliable carrier on the Seattle to Philadelphia route. Alaska Airlines follows with 73.1% on-time arrivals and a 1.1% cancellation rate.
Methodology
On-time arrival and cancellation rates come from the U.S. Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) Airline On-Time Performance dataset, which covers U.S. domestic routes only; a flight counts as on time when it arrives within 15 minutes of schedule. Carriers are ranked by arrival on-time rate on this route, and the carrier list itself comes from our flight-schedule database, which combines published airline timetables, U.S. government schedule data from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS), and observed flight operations from the EUROCONTROL/OpenSky Open Performance Data Initiative (OPDI).

Which airport should I use in Philadelphia?

Philadelphia International Airport is the only commercial airport serving Philadelphia and is located about 7 miles southwest of downtown. It offers direct access to central Philadelphia and is the primary choice for all flights to the city.

How do I get to Seattle-Tacoma Intl Airport from the city center?

From downtown Seattle, the Link light rail is the most popular and economical way to reach Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, taking about 38 minutes with trains running every 8–10 minutes and fares around $3. Ride-share services like Uber and Lyft, along with taxis, offer a faster door-to-door trip of roughly 20–30 minutes (traffic permitting) and pick up on level 3 of the parking garage, though they cost considerably more. Several shuttle services, including shared hotel shuttles and the Gray Line Airport Express, also connect downtown hotels to the airport at moderate prices. Driving yourself takes about 30 minutes without traffic on I-5 but can stretch to 90 minutes at peak times, and airport parking adds significant cost compared with transit.

Are there hotels or sleeping facilities at Philadelphia airport?

Philadelphia International Airport has a micro-hotel called Minute Suites located on the airside of the Terminal A-B connector, offering private suites with daybeds for sleeping during layovers or overnight stays. The Philadelphia Airport Marriott is connected directly to Terminal B by a skybridge, so you can walk from the terminal to the hotel without leaving the airport. Several other nearby hotels, including Sonesta Select, Hampton Inn, Sheraton Suites, and Aloft, are within about a mile of the airport and provide free shuttle service.

What aircraft are typically used on flights from Seattle to Philadelphia?

American Airlines operates the most flights from Seattle to Philadelphia, using Airbus A321 aircraft. Alaska Airlines flies Boeing 737 family jets on the route, while Delta Air Lines does not have a specific aircraft type listed.
Methodology
Aircraft types come from our flight-schedule database, which combines published airline timetables, U.S. government schedule data from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS), and observed flight operations from the EUROCONTROL/OpenSky Open Performance Data Initiative (OPDI). For U.S. routes the type is grounded in the tail number that actually operated the flight; elsewhere it comes from the airline's filed equipment code. Where the source does not commit to a specific variant we name the aircraft family (for example Airbus A320 family) rather than guess, and where no reliable type is on file the aircraft is omitted rather than estimated. Types describe typical scheduled equipment and can vary with seasonal or day-of-week assignments and last-minute swaps.

Which airline alliances serve flights from Seattle to Philadelphia?

American Airlines (oneworld), Alaska Airlines (oneworld), and Delta Air Lines (SkyTeam) fly nonstop from Seattle to Philadelphia. Oneworld is thus represented by two member carriers, while SkyTeam is represented by Delta; no unaligned major carriers operate the route nonstop, though other alliances may serve it via connections.
Methodology

Where a median fare is shown for a carrier, it reflects the real fares Priceline users found on this route in the last 72 hours.

What are the best airport lounge options when departing from Seattle?

When departing from Seattle, the American Express Centurion Lounge in the Central Terminal offers a great space for Delta and Alaska passengers, though anyone can access it after security within three hours of their flight. The Club at SEA has two locations, one in Concourse A near gate A12 and another in Concourse S, with complimentary snacks, beverages, bar service, and views of the airfield and mountains.
