Vancouver airport/s which is the closest?

[robertmartha]

Looking at an alaskan cruise for next year leaving out of Vancouver. This is a first time for us - is the Vancouver airport (YVR) the closest to the port? Since I'll be booking our air - trying to get the most conveinent airport for the port as well as doing a little sightseeing since we would fly in a day or two before.

Thanks all - this site always provides such great info!

Vancouver only has one main International airport. It's about 30-45 mins. from the port which is in downtown Vancouver at Canada Place.

Yes only YVR, cab to Canada Place is about $28+++ca. Priceline is excellent in this location for great hotel deals, consistantly.
