Airline Travel:
Wenatchee is served by Alaska Air with service from Seattle. Horizon/ Alaska has added another flight from Seattle so now there are two flights per day from Seattle to Wenatchee. Another option to get from Seattle when not driving is the Wenatchee Valley Shuttle. They run 5 trips per day to and from SeaTac, and while slower, they are very reliable and drop off/ pick up at the Amtrak station which is about a 10 minute walk to the Coast and Hilton. Both hotels both have a shuttle you can call. Their web site is at https://www.wenatcheevalleyshuttle.com/schedules
