Getting to Work at the Airport
The Vancouver International Airport Authority recognizes the contribution that vehicle traffic makes to air pollution in the Lower Fraser Valley. As such, we support the expansion of commuting choices such as the Richmond-Airport-Vancouver (RAV) rapid transit line and improvements to cycling facilities on Sea Island. As an employee working at YVR or on Sea Island, there are several transportation options available to you.

Public Transit
Translink operates public buses and rapid transit in the Greater Vancouver Regional District. Translink offers a discount to employers that sign up under its Employer Pass program committing 15 or more employees to buy monthly passes for one year.

Carpool/Rideshare
The Jack Bell Rideshare has a matching service to connect commuters to form rideshares and carpools. Jack Bell also provides cars and vans for carpooling groups for a fee.

Carpool.ca connects commuters who are interested in ride sharing to specific destinations, including Vancouver International Airport.

Cycling Facilities
The Airport Authority maintains a locked bicycle storage and change room facility on the first floor of the Domestic Terminal building for employees working at YVR. Access to this facility can be gained through the Airport Authority's Environment Department:

Translink publishes a cycling map and guide, available where transit tickets are sold and also online at:

Car Sharing
The Cooperative Auto Network provides joint access to a fleet of vehicles without the costs of owning one yourself. Consider membership in this program if you need only limited use of a vehicle.
