Insights shared by verified travellers who flew the route from Auckland to Vancouver 
LindaFlew with Air New Zealand-Dec 2025
Take good head phones: noise cancelling Air NZ have an excellent entertainment system
BrianFlew with Air Canada-Dec 2024
You will walk or take shuttle between domestic and international terminals, so ensure you have enough time to make your connection.
JulieFlew with Air New Zealand-May 2024
Don’t pay for seats from a third party ticket seller. Air NZ doesn’t recognize them. I spent $70 for no reason to choose a seat and got a completely different spot. The people who worked for airNZ apologized but said they can’t help. So don’t pay to choose your seat! It will not be honoured! And you will have a choice to pay for seats upon check in.
Verified travelerFlew with Air Canada-Feb 2024
YVR is a well thought out and an easy airport to fly in and out of. Park N’Fly on Miller Road near the airport is simply amazing. I’ve used them multiple times with out issue.
