What is the best airport for visiting Vancouver?

Vancouver International Airport (YVR) is the primary gateway to the city, located just 13 km from downtown. YVR is consistently ranked among the best airports in North America for efficiency and amenities. It offers extensive ground transport options including the Canada Line SkyTrain for quick access to central Vancouver.

Are flights cheaper if I use a nearby airport?

Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (SEA) sometimes offers lower fares, especially on certain US domestic and international routes.
