The route

Where the Eastside meets the foothills.

Issaquah and Sammamish sit at the eastern edge of the metro area, where I-90 starts to climb toward the Cascades. Most rides from Sea-Tac are to homes in the Issaquah Highlands and Sammamish plateau, or to offices and hotels along the I-90 corridor.

The drive is about 25 miles: east from the airport through Renton, then along I-405 and I-90, or via SR 900 depending on traffic — typically 35–50 minutes. The Sammamish plateau adds a few minutes of climbing residential roads at the end.

Expect roughly $95–120 in a sedan. Because addresses here spread out widely, the exact price is confirmed from your address and time — send the request and you receive a quote, including the airport pickup, tolls and luggage help, before anything is booked.
