Flying into and out of Vancouver British Columbia is a pleasure because the Vancouver International Airport (YVR) is such a great airport. It has been named the best medium sized airport in North America, the second best airport on the continent, and the tenth best in the world. Business travelers have rated it #3 in the world.
The airport has the Fairmont Vancouver Airport Hotel, a four-diamond luxury hotel with soundproof rooms, free internet access, day use rooms, conference facilities, and a full sized health club including a pool. The hotel’s main entrance is located at International Departures, so you can go from your room to your flight.
With the completion of the Canada Line, light rail transportation between YVR and downtown Vancouver is now available. Trains depart every 7 minutes from early morning until late at night and the fare is under $5.00, depending on how far you’re going. The trip between the airport and the terminus at Waterfront Station takes just 26 minutes.
This new transportation option makes getting between the airport and downtown easy and inexpensive. For those who prefer more conventional means of travel, taxis and limousines are also available just outside the terminal doors.
You may also want to arrange transportation in advance with meet and greet convenience and enjoyment. To make transportation arrangements in advance, contact Luxury Transport in Vancouver at 1-877-511-88484 or 604-522-8484.
