Airport Information
Seattle Paine Field International Pilot Reviews:
Curtis M.
June 24, 2026With the tower closed, the short runway 16L/34R is unlighted and unavailable. Small planes use an east-side pattern for Runway 16R/34L (left traffic for 16R, right traffic for 34L). This detail is frequently overlooked in the Chart Supplement.

March 3, 2026Make a point of checking the hotspots on the airport diagram. Fuel can be found on the Central Ramp beside Regal Air. When you're in the departure sequence for 34L/16R, you can move off to the side of the intersection and do your run-up.
