About Paine Field
Paine Field Airport (PAE) has played a pivotal role since its establishment in 1936. Paine Field serves as home to over 550 aircraft, including small, single-engine recreational aircraft, corporate jets, vintage warbirds, and brand-new Boeing aircraft. Paine Field’s privately-owned commercial air terminal services a dozen destinations in the western United States, including Hawaii. Historically renowned as Boeing’s manufacturing and testing hub for widebody aircraft, such as the 787, 777, 767, and the now retired 747, it continues to evolve. In January 2023, Boeing announced the opening of an additional 737 assembly line at Paine Field.
The airport is a cornerstone of the Snohomish County economy, wielding substantial influence with an estimated impact of over 158,000 jobs, including more than 46,000 direct positions, and contributing nearly $60 billion annually to the local economy. Located about 30 miles north of downtown Seattle, the airport offers high-quality aviation facilities, including a FAA tower, Cat 1 ILS, Part 139 certification, FBO services and good access to Seattle, Bellevue, and Redmond.
