Choose for the season
Winter travel can involve snow, wet gear and ski equipment. Confirm suitable tires, storage space and the provider’s winter operating plan.
Allow for variable travel time
The Sea to Sky Highway is scenic but conditions and traffic can change. Avoid building a tight arrival schedule around the shortest possible drive time.
Plan stops before departure
Families or international travellers may want a food, washroom or sightseeing stop. Ask whether stops are included or charged as waiting time.
Airport connections
When travelling from YVR to Whistler, share the flight number and discuss arrival delays. For a return flight, leave a generous margin.
