They don't. But obviously the aircraft are originally manufactured in the US, and parts of the assembly process (like installing the in-flight entertainment) may be subcontracted out and not done in Seattle. I forget the company at MCO who does this work, but they do a lot of it for others as well. I believe all the Jet Blue A320s go there before entry into service for the same reason.
