Transportation Options

• Taxis

Taxis are available at taxi stands located at the International Arrivals area at YVR. There are multiple taxi companies. The taxis use a meter system so the cost will depend on the location of your accommodations. To obtain a taxi, you must proceed to the taxi area and wait in line (please respect physical distancing).

Taxis and wheelchair accessible vehicles can be found outside of the YVR building (level 2) at the taxi stands.

Please note that due to a decrease in the number of taxis during the pandemic - there might be longer than normal wait times for a taxi. An airport employee is usually on location to manage this process and to direct passengers to appropriate taxis. 

• Ride sharing services (Uber or Lyft)

If you prefer to take a ride, Lyft and Uber are both authorized providers of Ride App services at YVR. This page provides key information for Ride App users, including FAQs and links for further information.

• Beatons Meet and Greet

Beaton’s Meet and Greet is a student transportation service. This service has to be booked in advance through their website.
