One of the best ways of getting between Vancouver and Whistler is by float plane. Planes depart daily from the downtown Vancouver float plane terminal on West Waterfront Road fromĀ May 18 until September 24, 2012.
Float plane service between Vancouver and Whistler is not available during winter because Green Lake in Whistler is frozen so the planes can’t take off or land.
