Route Briefing: Seattle to San Juan
Escaping Seattle for the Caribbean takes 8 hours and 15 minutes across 3,600 miles. Delta, United, and American connect Seattle with Luis Muñoz Marín International Airport (SJU), offering easy flights to Puerto Rico with no passport required for U.S. citizens.
San Juan charms with 500 years of colonial history, vibrant street life, and golden beaches. Explore the massive stone ramparts of El Morro in Old San Juan, stroll along blue cobblestone streets lined with pastel buildings, and savor traditional mofongo with garlic shrimp. Relax on the sands of Condado Beach or take a day trip to hike through the lush rainforest trails and waterfalls of El Yunque National Forest.
Roundtrip economy fares under $240 are a great bargain, with standard fares sitting between $350 to $520. Peak season runs from November through March when winter travelers escape rain and snow. Book 6 to 10 weeks in advance for the best economy pricing.
