Just a reminder that Monday March 1 will continue to be a very busy day even though the Olympics are over.

Travelling into downtown Vancouver or to Vancouver International Airport (YVR) Mon, March 1—the first day after the Games end—will be extremely busy.

The airport is preparing for record crowds as over 35,000 Olympians, officials, media, visitors and other passengers catch flights home. Passengers are advised to arrive at the airport up to four hours in advance of their flight. Most Games-time road closures will remain in place so commuters should continue to travel smart.

Remember, we will be running special service on the Canada Line to YVR, with the trains continuing overnight from February 28 to March 1 to help with the rush. See this post for the full details. Also, check out YVR’s tips for passengers flying out on March 1.
