Service Information

Get to the airport at the right time!

Our goal is to get you to the Vancouver Airport (YVR) with enough time that you are not rushing to catch your flight but also not so early that you end up an expert on Vancouver Airport architecture. The service is extremely agile and adjusts on the fly to handle flight delays, cancellations, and missed connections!

Key Whistler Shuttle Advantages:

  1. The Most Frequent Shuttle Service from Whistler - Our flexible schedule usually means that you can spend more time in Whistler before heading to the airport!
  2. The Most Departures from Whistler - We've got you covered no matter when you depart.
  3. The Shuttle Adjusts on the Fly - Airport representatives monitor your flight status and adjust to flight delays and changes. Our staff is available in the airport if you need help getting to your flight.
  4. Never Get Lost! - Meet & greet service reps are available to you upon departure if you require their help.
  5. Convenient - Pick-up and drop-off service to all major hotels and condos in Whistler.
  6. Flexible - Serving Vancouver Airport, Vancouver Downtown hotels, and all of Whistler.

Shuttle Hours of Operation:

Vancouver Airport (YVR) -> Whistler: The first shuttle leaves at 08:30 and then operates until 23:00 (11:00PM) in Winter and 20:00 (08:00PM) in Spring / Summer.

Whistler -> Vancouver Airport (YVR):
Winter: The first shuttle bound for Vancouver International Airport leaves Whistler at 02:30 and then operates approximately every hour until 18:30 (6:30 PM).
Spring / Summer:The first shuttle bound for Vancouver International Airport leaves Whistler at 04:30/05:00 and then operates approximately every two hours until 17:00 (5:00 PM).

How The Shuttle Works: The shuttle schedule is a combination of a number of our south bound vehicles to provide the most daily departures from Whistler to Vancouver and the Vancouver International Airport (YVR). The result is a lot less waiting around at the airport. The shuttle operates on a combination of late model charter vans, mini-buses, and highway coaches in order to achieve this schedule flexibility. We won't guarantee what type of vehicle you'll be in, but we can guarantee that you'll get away from the airport quickly, and ride to Whistler in comfort!

Child Seats: Please note the age of any "tot" in the "special instructions" field. Some of our vehicles do not have seatbelts so we do not guarantee child seats. As with our schedule bus service...if you are on a large coach (without seatbelts) you will be asked to hold your child as we can not secure a child seat.

Questions? Ask away! We're online most of the day and available by online web chat, email, or phone.

Do I need to tip the driver?

Bookings for bus and shuttle services do not include gratuity. 15% gratuity is standard in North America. Please do consider tipping for good service.

For private charter services, gratuity is paid at the time of booking. We choose our partners very carefully and incidents of poor service are extremely rare. However, if an incident of poor service were to occur then we will gladly issue a gratuity refund and take up the matter with our transportation partner

Is my pet allowed to travel with me?

No, on our shared transfers pets are not allowed to travel. This excludes service dogs who have been trained to carry out specific work. Please contact us first if you wish to travel with an animal and we will be able to advise on the options available.

What if I need to change my booking?

Contact us if you need to make changes to your booking. Changes made within 72 hours of travel are subject to availability. Additional fees may apply to adding passengers, sports equipment and other services.

Can I book a one-way trip only?

Yes, if you are using our online booking system, select 'One Way' and you will not be asked for your return trip date.

Can I pay cash?

No. We only accept payment by credit card (Visa, Mastercard or Amex). Full payment is required to secure your reservation at the time of booking.

Do I have to book in advance?

We can often find something for you within that time but our services can sell out - especially during busy periods (school breaks, holidays, game days, etc), so book early to avoid disappointment. If you are booking within 72 hours of travel always call us to check availability before you book - payment does not guarantee availability.

Is my booking guaranteed once I have made payment?

No, your booking is not guaranteed until you receive your confirmation email. This is a separate email from your payment receipt. This is because some bookings have special requests that must be manually reviewed before the booking can be confirmed.

What happens if you do not have any seats/vehicles available for the trip I have booked?

We will always strive to honour every booking made with us. On the rare occasion that we can find no availability however, this is not possible. Rest assured that if we are not able to confirm your trip then you will be refunded in full - though this may take 3 - 5 working days to be processed by the bank.

Why haven't I received my confirmation email yet?

Confirmations are typically emailed within 24 hours of your transaction. If you do not receive your confirmation email within 24 hours, please check your email spam folder. If you still need help, please contact us.
