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 Salt Lake City to Seattle 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 Salt Lake City to Seattle.
What is the typical flight duration from Salt Lake City to Seattle?
The flight from Salt Lake City to Seattle is about 690 miles and typically takes 2 hours and 16 minutes. The return flight to Salt Lake City runs about 2 hours and 5 minutes, so the westbound leg is only slightly 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 Salt Lake City to Seattle?
Delta Air Lines and Alaska Airlines both fly non-stop from Salt Lake City to Seattle, with service every day of the week. Delta operates 48 weekly non-stop flights and Alaska Airlines 46 weekly (including one flown by SkyWest under the Alaska brand), so there are roughly 90 to 94 non-stops each week. Both carriers run multiple daily departures, so you have plenty of non-stop options throughout the day.
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 Seattle?
Getting from Sea-Tac into downtown Seattle is straightforward, with the Link light rail the most-used option — it runs every 8–10 minutes and reaches Westlake Station in about 38 minutes for just $3. Taxis and ride-shares like Uber and Lyft pick up on level 3 of the parking garage and take 20–30 minutes depending on traffic, with metered taxi fares starting at a $20 minimum. Rental cars are available at an off-site facility via shuttle, and some hotels also offer their own shuttle service.

When is the cheapest time to fly from Salt Lake City to Seattle?
Fares from Salt Lake City to Seattle are lowest in late January, around $317. January is the cheapest month overall, averaging $319, followed by February ($326) and November ($341). July is the most expensive month at about $476, and fares peak in early July at about $482. The yearly average is $375. 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 Salt Lake City to Seattle?
Book about 7 weeks before departure for the best fares from Salt Lake City to Seattle, around $301. Booking in the final days before the flight costs about $463, $162 more. Booking six months ahead runs about $486. 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 Salt Lake City to Seattle?
There are no nonstop red-eye flights from Salt Lake City to Seattle, but connecting itineraries with an overnight long leg do operate, all arriving in the early hours after midnight. Southwest runs red-eyes into Seattle via Phoenix (departing 10:30 PM, arriving 1:40 AM), Las Vegas (departing 10:15 PM, arriving 1:00 AM), and Chicago Midway (departing 10:05 PM, arriving 12:40 AM), while United runs one via San Francisco (departing 10:45 PM, arriving 1:15 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 airport should I use in Seattle?
Seattle-Tacoma International Airport is the primary commercial airport for Seattle, located about 14 miles south of downtown. It serves all major airlines and alliances, including Alaska, Delta, and United, and is the main gateway for both business and leisure travel to the region. Paine Field in Everett offers limited commercial flights, mostly on Alaska Airlines, and is farther from downtown Seattle, making it a niche option for travellers near the northern suburbs.
How do I get to Salt Lake City Intl Airport from the city center?
Getting to Salt Lake City International Airport from downtown is quick and easy, with the airport just 10 minutes by car. The TRAX Green Line light rail is the most popular and affordable option, running every 15 minutes and taking about 20-25 minutes for a flat fare of $2.50. Taxis and ride-share services like Uber and Lyft are the fastest at 10-15 minutes but cost more, while hotel shuttles and driving yourself with onsite parking are also available. For most travelers, TRAX is the best balance of cost and convenience, though a taxi or ride-share is the quickest door-to-door choice.

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.
