University Place ('UP' to locals) is a residential city on the west side of Tacoma along the Puget Sound waterfront — approximately 37 miles from SeaTac and a 45 to 60-minute drive via I-5 south. Home to Chambers Bay Golf Course (2015 U.S. Open venue) and Grandview Drive's waterfront estate neighborhoods. Most UP inbound arrivals are residents, golf visitors, and family visitors to waterfront homes.
University Place stretches along the Puget Sound from Chambers Bay in the north to Titlow Beach adjacent. Grandview Drive holds some of the West Pierce coast's most established residential estates with sound views. The city center is compact along Bridgeport Way, with Curran Apple Orchard as a community landmark. Post-flight arrivals typically head to Grandview waterfront, downtown UP, or Chambers Bay for golf.
Standard curbside is included with every ride. Meet & Greet is a $25 upgrade for those who want a name sign inside the terminal.
After collecting your luggage, walk to the nearest exit door on Arrivals Level 3, call our dispatch line, and read us the door number. Your chauffeur pulls up to your specific door within 5-10 minutes. No walking through skybridges, no elevators to the 3rd-floor garage, no searching parking stalls.
Your chauffeur is inside the terminal at your baggage claim carousel holding a printed name sign when you exit the gate area. They help with luggage and walk you to the vehicle. Ideal for international arrivals, first-time visitors, elderly passengers, and clients you want to impress.
The specific University Place scenarios where our SeaTac inbound service earns its place — and the pieces we handle that rideshare and public transit can't.
Chambers Bay is a Pierce County-operated golf course and 2015 U.S. Open venue — one of the Northwest's premier golf destinations. Direct SeaTac to Chambers Bay clubhouse arrivals for tee times, tournaments, and Pacific Golf Club events.
Grandview Drive's waterfront estate homes bring frequent SeaTac inbound for residents and visiting family. Sedans and SUVs handle standard arrivals; Sprinter for wedding and event groups.
UP's mix of established residents and waterfront estates makes it a common family-arrival destination. Child seats included free; multi-address pickup available.
