I see no case for a PAE-SEA flight either, but I defy you to get from south Snohomish County to SEA on public transport in less than 90 minutes. From my house it's a car ride to the nearest bus stop, then two buses plus one light rall ride. Adding dwell times it takes well over two hours - longer than many of my SEA-XXX flights. Forget it. I'll drive to SEA but would prefer to drive to PAE which is < 20 from home.
