 Seattle-Tacoma International Airport - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Seattle-Tacoma Airport was constructed by the Port of Seattle in 1944 to serve civilians of the region, after the U.S. military took control of Boeing Field for use in World War II.
However, denizens of Tacoma interpreted the name change as an insult to their community--the second time in the airport's history that the port authorities had attempted to "erase" Tacoma from the map.
"Welcome to Sea-Tac!" is said in an automated announcement in the airport's parking garage and skyways, as a reference to it's nickname dubbed by locals of the Seattle metropolitan area.
