Half price parking with connection to light rail available at Sea-Tac Airport for weekend games

Port of Seattle press release:
With the Seattle Mariners about to open their 2012 home season, Seattle-Tacoma International Airport is reminding fans to save money, traffic frustration and emissions with its half-price parking offer for all weekend games.
The 50 percent discount offer also includes all Friday through Sunday Seahawk, Sounder, Husky, and Cougar game days for parking in Terminal Direct to connect with Link Light Rail to the stadium district. [Remember, UW football plays in CenturyLink Field this year during their stadium renovation and WSU hosts Oregon for their annual west-side game.]
Terminal Direct parking at Sea-Tac Airport offers the most convenient access to the airport terminal and quick connection to Link Light Rail. You’ll park on the fourth floor of the airport garage, an easy walk to the pedestrian bridge leading to the SeaTac/Airport Station.
During 2012-13 Mariner, Seahawk, Sounder and University of Washington Husky football home games, customers parking in Terminal Direct will enjoy a $2 per hour rate, 50 percent off the regular rate. The discount period begins three hours before game time and is a way to avoid traffic congestion and the hassle of downtown parking.
Discounted parking is available for up to eight hours and will automatically be credited at the special rate when you exit the airport parking garage. A minimum stay of three hours is required and you must park in Terminal Direct.
Catch Link Light Rail on the Terminal Direct parking level and travel to the Stadium or International District Stations, where you’re an easy walk to CenturyLink or Safeco fields.
The airport’s Terminal Direct parking is a perfect way to make the connection to Link Light Rail. Again, the special parking rate is valid for all Mariner, Seahawk, Sounder and UW Husky football home season games.
And don’t forget the WSU Cougar games versus Oregon this fall at CenturyLink Field. The discount will apply if you arrive to park at Terminal Direct within three hours before game time and stay a minimum of three hours, up to a maximum of eight hours. Fans riding Link to the game can skip any post-game ticket lines by purchasing a round-trip ticket ahead of time or by using an ORCA card from any ticket vending machine before boarding.
The round- trip fare from SeaTac/Airport station on Link Light Rail to the Stadium Station is $5.
