In seattle you'll be at Pier 91 which is about 5 miles from downtown. A good half hour drive from the airport.

A taxi to/from the airport will cost about $40-$50 depending on which company you use. flatrateforhire.com or eastsideforhire are usually cheaper since they don't use a meter. Their rates are on-line or call for the fare.

 

p.s. if you look on the West Coast departures forum you may find the info on Vancouver.
