    Going downtown or anywhere near Granville St? Skip the cab and take Canada Line. Mobile connection all the way - even underground.

    Day Pass. $9 a day but if you ride out of the airport, and then use the bus and/or the train at least once more, you've made up the cost.

    Also, trains empty and depart immediately. Don't dawdle, or that door may close in your face!

    You can tap a credit/debit card at the ticket gate, however this is more expensive. At time of writing, paying by cash or credit/debit card cost $4.65, a loaded compass card $3.85. + $5 airport access

    $7.75 is a bit pricey going one zone.

    The Free WiFi at YVR is fantastic. A model for the rest of Canada's airports and the world!

    Canada Line charges a horrendous $5 extra if you buy tickets at the station. Instead buy a pass or tickets elsewhere.

    If you plan on coming to Vancouver a few times, it's worth buying a few Skytrain tickets for next time. Otherwise the pass is $7.75. Yikes!

    Want a convient way from the Airport to Richmond or Vancouver? Try the Canadline just steps away from the airport! Or come visit us in the Domestic and International arrivals for more transportation

    Correction: the Skytrain from Templeton to YVR is only free to employees @ YVR. I got a ticket because I had left my ID pass at home. :(

    Get a single zone ticket book from 7-11 at lower lvl of domestic arrival. You can upgrade without paying the 5$ airport fee. After 6pm you get back to YVR without upgrading.

    Fare from YVR to downtown costs $9. But if you go to Pharmasave or 7-11 at Domestic Terminal, get a FareSaver pass and it's only under $3.

    Selbstfahrende Train, einfach mit der Kreditkarte durch das Gate gehen, dann braucht man nicht am Automaten anstehen. Very Easy
