76 CONCESSIONS May | June 2026 AirportImprovement.com SEA two-pronged strategy: requiring reusable dishware in restaurants with dishwashing capacity, and compostable packaging for all takeout orders. “This allowed us to shift the waste material being captured to composting and reduce single-use plastics and the overall waste we generate,” Webb explains. “It also allowed us to simplify sorting for passengers to capture more food scraps, which supports our overall climate action plans.” The program applies only to food prepared and packaged on site, not to items prepackaged elsewhere and distributed at the airport.
