Southwest Airlines, SkyWest Airlines, and Frontier Airlines are the winners of Port of Seattle's Fly Quiet Awards, which recognize those airlines doing the best job minimizing noise impacts on local communities for operations at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport in the last calendar year. Airlines are judged using three award criteria: the sound levels of their operations (utilizing four of the Port's noise monitors); success at flying within the noise abatement flight procedures; and adhering to the airport's ground maintenance engine run-up regulations. 1. Southwest Airlines received the award for being the quietest jet airline among the five busiest airlines operationally at Sea-Tac Airport. 2. SkyWest Airlines received the award for operating as the quietest regional jet airline. 3. Frontier Airlines received the award for operating as the quietest jet airline with at least 1,000 annual operations.
