Big Changes Coming to YVR
Christopher Richards, YVR Stories
As Canada’s second busiest airport, YVR is experiencing incredible growth. In 2016, we welcomed a record 22.3 million passengers, a 9.7 per cent increase over the previous year. We are well positioned to meet and exceed our goal of 25 million passengers by 2020, and Flight Plan 2037 estimates 35 million passengers will travel through YVR annually by 2037.
This growth will provide tremendous economic benefits to the province, the region and the country. It will also require significant changes to our airport.
