2026 SEA Airport Luncheon
One of the Pacific Northwest's largest economic engines is evolving. Will your business be ready?

Join the Seattle Southside Chamber for an exclusive conversation with the leaders shaping the future of Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (SEA Airport)—the gateway that connects our region to the world and drives billions of dollars in economic activity throughout Washington.

Whether your business depends directly on aviation or simply benefits from a strong regional economy, the decisions being made today at SEA Airport will influence transportation, tourism, workforce development, infrastructure, and economic opportunity for years to come.

This year's keynote features Wendy Reiter, Managing Director of Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, who will provide an insider's look at recently completed and current airport projects, future investments designed to meet growing traveler demand, and what those developments mean for businesses and communities across our region. Following her presentation, attendees will have the opportunity to ask questions during an exclusive live Q&A.

​We're also excited to welcome Khalia Moore, Airport Dining & Retail Program at the Port of Seattle, who will present on the Airport Dining & Retail Program. Learn how the program supports local and diverse businesses, enhances the traveler experience, and creates opportunities for entrepreneurs to be part of one of the nation's busiest airports.
 
We're also proud to welcome Ben Brookman, Vice President of Real Estate & Airport Affairs at Alaska Airlines, who will share Alaska Airlines' perspective on the future of aviation, regional connectivity, and the partnerships helping shape the next generation of air travel.

This isn't just another luncheon.
