Work and conventions

What brings travelers to Seattle

Visit Seattle describes South Lake Union as the heart of Seattle's tech scene and names Amazon and Google among its employers, along with UWMedicine and Fred Hutch Cancer Center. Microsoft says its global headquarters sits on 500 acres in Redmond, with more than 125 structures. A team visiting for a week may meet in South Lake Union one day and travel to Redmond the next, so it helps to book each trip before anyone arrives. 

A business account keeps a team's rides in one place. Conventions bring a second kind of visitor. The convention center has two buildings, Arch and Summit, which together cover 1.5 million square feet and sit one and a half blocks apart. Summit adds 573,770 square feet of event space, including 62 meeting rooms and a 58,000 square foot column-free ballroom. 

Attendees at a multi-day event often arrive and leave on different schedules, so a ride booked ahead removes one decision. Book each trip to the building your event uses, and book the way home as its own separate trip.
