Aircraft Disinsection in Seattle

Seattle flight departments fly the North Pacific to Asia and the South Pacific to Australia and New Zealand, and the Philippines, Australia, New Zealand and the Cook Islands all require disinsection on arrival. We perform pre-embarkation disinsection at Boeing Field, Sea-Tac and Paine Field, on the empty aircraft before boarding.

Why Seattle departures need a disinsection plan

Boeing Field carries most of the corporate long-range traffic and is the last port for non-stop Pacific departures, where the treatment happens at the ramp. Itineraries that stage through Honolulu are treated there instead; send the routing and we confirm where the treatment belongs.

From the West Coast the routes that most often trigger a disinsection requirement are Pacific: Australia and New Zealand first, then the Cook Islands and the Philippines, plus South America to Chile.
