Ranked among the world’s top ten airports, Vancouver International Airport (YVR) is Canada’s second busiest passenger gateway. In addition to being the major West Coast airport closest to Asia, YVR is ideally situated on the Great Circle Routes, with infrastructure and services to handle the largest aircraft in the world under extreme weather conditions.

Passengers at YVR enjoy leading-edge technology and more than 160 shops, services and restaurants. The airport provides direct service to some 130 destinations in Canada, the United States and around the world, keeping B.C. at the crossroads of international travel, tourism and trade.

Vancouver Airport Authority, the community-based, not-for-profit organization that operates YVR, is undertaking a $1-billion construction program that will ensure the airport meets the growing demand for air travel and continues to be developed as a premier global gateway and economic generator for British Columbia.

While the airport’s reach is global, the Airport Authority remains firmly rooted in the local community and is pleased to be a founding partner of Spirit of Vancouver.
