The Alaska Lounge at Seattle-Tacoma airport Concourse D is located in the main terminal, steps away from a security checkpoint. The club welcomes Alaska Lounge members, as well Alaska First Class passengers departing on flights longer than 2,100 miles, and eligible oneworld premium and elite customers.
Given Alaska Airline’s vast footprint at SEA, the carriers also operates a lounge in Concourse C, as well as a sumptuous flagship club in Satellite N.
Alaska Lounge SEA design
The bright and airy Alaska Lounge stretches across two levels, with floors to ceiling windows that reveal panoramic views of the tarmac.
The club was refurbished early 2023. Alaska Airlines shied away from a full remodel, choosing to focus instead on improving the layout, augmenting capacity, and refreshing furniture. As such, the Alaska Lounge in Concourse D feels fresh and functional, but doesn’t have the cachet of the custom-built flagship club in Satellite N. Many artifacts of the airline’s legacy design have been left intact, including the fireplace on the ground floor.
Most amenities are located on the ground floor, including a buffet, bar, and a new barista station with grab-and-go options. On the upper floor, guests will find a quieter area with comfortable loungers overlooking the tarmac, as well as highly-private cube chairs.
All seats feature power outlets and USB ports. The lounge boasts artwork by the Coast Salish artist Louie Gong (Nooksack.)
Alaska Lounge SEA amenities
The Alaska Lounge at Seattle-Tacoma airport Concourse D offers a set of essential amenities for domestic travelers, along with a few luxurious touches.
The highlight of breakfast is the fresh pancakes made at the touch of a button by a “pancake printer.”, accompanied by hard broiled eggs, and various pastries. Throughout the day patrons will find a selection of light snacks and salads.
The staffed bar offers a selection of complimentary beverages and cocktails, including Champagne. On the lower level, patrons will find a barista station where they can order handcrafted espresso drinks, which can be consumed on site or served in a to-go cup.
Unfortunately, even though Seattle-Tacoma is Alaska’s hub, the airline does not offer showers, unlike Delta.

Overall ratings
Old space, well maintained. Small spaces for seating, reasonably comfortable but not special. No view. Little food, but good coffee.
I like that there are multiple areas (upstairs, downstairs,etc). Chairs are comfy, especially the loungers. Great mimosa before an early morning flight!
Lounge needs a remodel. Food was average and the bar has a poor selection of alcohol.
It’s not the most physically attractive space, and it can be pretty busy, but the full breakfast in itself justifies a four star rating!
