They are expecting record passengers in 2018\, we recommend giving yourself extra time to get to the airport and to find parking. \nParking Directions: \n1. Follow Grant McConachie way to YVR. After passing the gas station on your left\, the road will fork left. Follow the dark blue “parkade / stationnement étagé” signage until you see the ramp. Head into P1 International terminal parking. . \n2. Upon entry\, the machine will give you a green token. Please keep your token to exit the lot. The tour guides will supply you with a paper pass that you scan to exit the lot free of charge. Scan this pass upon inserting your token at the exit gates and the lever will open. \n3. Inside the parking\, follow the signage and arrows directing to ‘International and US flight’. \n4. As you exit the parking lot\, you will walk through a corridor with escalators to your left-hand side and elevators to your right-hand side. Take the escalator or elevator to P3/Level 3. Now\, on this level\, take the subsequent set of escalators to reach level 4. \nNOTE: If you find yourself in P1 by the domestic terminal\, follow these directions… \nInside the parking lot\, look for and follow the signage for “domestic flights’. \nAs you exit the parking lot\, you will walk through a corridor with a set of elevators on your right-hand side. \nTake the elevator to P3. As you exit the elevator\, turn right to head toward P3 parkade. You will see the Canada Line across the parkade. \nWalk across the parkade and take the stairs\, escalator or elevators to the Canada Line platform (level 4). There is an open area beside the elevators and stairwell\, this is where we will be meeting your group to hand out parking passes and start the tour. \nThere is a 4-hour parking time limit for P1. So\, P1 will likely have the most available parking. \nPlease note: While the YVR School Tour is free of charge\, you are responsible for transportation to the airport. If you are arriving via Canada Line\, it is recommended that you purchase return tickets in advance in the form of FareSavers to avoid paying the $5 surcharge you will incur if you buy tickets from a YVR or Sea Island station. \nWhere: 3211 Grant McConachie Way\, Richmond\, BC V7B 0A4\nCost: FREE\nContact Person/Information: Julie Chetty\, jchetty@schoolathome.ca\, 604-220-1456 \n  \n
