  • How do I fly more sustainably from Los Angeles to Seattle?

    Because flying involves more than just traveling on an airplane from place to place, your transportation choice for getting to and from the airport is just as important for eco-friendly travel. For example, in Los Angeles, try choosing one of the LAX FlyAway buses to get you from several locations in Los Angeles to the airport. Once you arrive at the airport in Seattle, hop aboard the Link Light Rail System, which offers service to downtown Seattle. Beyond those choices, think about packing as lightly as possible. The more weight that your flight is carrying, the more fuel that gets burned during your trip. Another important tip is to bring a reusable water bottle on your flight. This will help save countless plastic water bottles you may have otherwise used during your trip that contribute a huge amount of waste to the environment.
