Airport marks 75th Anniversary
on Friday and Saturday

The King County International Airport (Boeing Field) will celebrate its 75th Anniversary by officially re-opening its newly renovated passenger terminal building on Friday, Sept. 26th at 10 a.m.

The terminal building, which originally opened in 1930, has undergone extensive remodeling in recent months, blending new technology and materials, while still maintaining the building’s historic charm.

Following the re-opening ceremony, the airport will hold an open house allowing the general public to tour the new terminal until 4 p.m. The open house will continue on Saturday, Sept. 27th from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Vintage aircraft including a Boeing 247D, one of only four in the world and considered the first modern airliner will be on display, along with historical memorabilia and photos.

The airport is located at 7277 Perimeter Road, just off Airport Way in Seattle.
