Boston–Seattle Flights

Flying Boston to Seattle covers about 2,490 miles, linking Boston Logan International Airport (BOS) with Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (SEA); a nonstop takes roughly 5h30, with winds moving it either way.

Nonstops are just about 7% of the total.

Best Ways to Book With Points & Miles

On a domestic run like Boston–Seattle, award prices go head to head with cash fares. The cheapest economy seat connects once; skipping the connection means an economy nonstop on Delta at a higher price. Taxes and fees on the economy floor run about $6, in line with the route's typical economy taxes. Run the miles-or-cash math each time: a cheap fare usually beats spending points. Transfers out of bank programs can't be reversed, so confirm the exact flight is bookable first.

Best Points & Miles Programs

Alaska Atmos Rewards wins economy at 12,500 points. American AAdvantage takes business class at 38,000 points and first class at 25,000. Of the other five, United MileagePlus, Delta SkyMiles, and Qatar Airways Privilege Club are worth a look too. Decide the cabin first: Alaska Atmos Rewards wins economy, and from business class up, American AAdvantage does.

Airlines & Routing Options

On points, Boston–Seattle has nonstop seats from Delta (SkyTeam) and Alaska Airlines (oneworld), which puts partner programs from both alliances in play for a nonstop. The cheaper connecting awards in the data change planes in New York and Chicago.

Alternative Airports & Routes

The return, Seattle to Boston, has its own page, since award pricing can differ by direction. If the destination is open, Boston to Atlanta prices from 11,000 points at last check. Seattle awards can also land at Everett's Paine Field (PAE), so check the arrival code before transferring points.

Booking tips

  1. 1Search flexible dates first, since saver award seats can appear on scattered days.
  2. 2Compare partner programs before transferring points, since the same seat can price very differently.
  3. 3Check both direct and connecting options when direct award seats are limited.
  4. 4Book early for peak travel periods, when saver space disappears fastest.
  5. 5Recheck availability often, since airlines may release more award seats closer to departure.
