    Change into running shoes if you need to get to the next gate, for some reason everything seems farther than normal

    I've been to many airports around the world, yet YVR always comes out on top in terms of a clean, organized and comfortable airport. There's free WIFI, outlets for charging, decent shopping & food.

    Oh and double check the automated machines before inserting your declarations card. It makes customs so much easier, just make sure no one forgot to log out before using the terminal!

    If you use the global entry machine then you don't need to fill out the blue US departure form.

    I arrive late at night and leave early morning when it’s still dark, so nothing is open when I’m there. :(

    Nexus security is on the top floor. They are doing construction down below at main security and you will get priority line but not nexus security…
