Doess anyone here know the Seattle area? I need 9 hours from my flight at 7am until 4pm ( it has to be 4) for check in. I will be with 3 others with our luggage and will need to kill time for that long. Is there a place we can go to secure our luggage and wonder around or some other thing?
Anyone live in Seattle? I need to kill 9 hours after my flight

You can ride the light rail from Seatac airport to downtown Seattle. There you can enjoy the waterfront, check out Pike Place Market, go to the aquarium, and eat things. From there you can ride the Seattle Center monorail to the Seattle Center where you can visit the Space Needle and stroll around the Seattle Center itself and visit the fountain and the various museums they have there and also eat things
Most tourists will probably want to try Ivar's clam chowder at least once. The "crab pot" restaurants on the waterfront are grossly overpriced because you know tourists but they can be really good so if you don't care because you're on vacation then go for it. There are some good places to eat in and around Pike Place Market, and obviously while you're there check out tHe FIrSt sTArBuCKs, it's impossible to miss because of the mile long line to get inside and also the original Starbucks logo where the mermaid is less shy about showing off her best assets
Have fun!

One thing to note about Seatac. I have been to many airports and Seatc is the slowest I've been to. If you are flying international, you'll be using the N Gate which is also on the other side of the airport. I've been there with my family 2 1/2 hours early and got to my gate as 1st class was boarding...plan accordingly.
I just took a look at the light rail schedule and it looks like it takes 45 to 48 minutes (at this time at night) to go from Seatac to Seattle via light rail. I have taken the light rail only once to go see the Kraken play in downtown Seattle. While the ride there was good, on the way back it broke down and caused a 1/2 hour delay. I am not sure if the schedule is the same during the day (I live over an hour away from Seattle and only go into Seattle nowadays to renew passports at the Japanese Consulate.)

You can pick up some takeout breakfast at Biscuit Bitch. Worth it just to have someone hand you your food saying "here you go bitch." Tasty as well.
