Vancouver to/from Whistler

Due to the virus, no float planes are flying to or from Whistler in 2020

One of the best ways of getting between Vancouver and Whistler is by float plane (seaplane). Planes depart daily from the downtown Vancouver float plane terminal in front of the Vancouver Convention Centre between late April and the end of September 2020.

One Way Fares: Total per person: $201 including all fees and tax. Children 2-11 $107.88. All fares are in Canadian dollars.

Float plane service between Vancouver and Whistler is not available in winter because Green Lake, the location of the seaplane dock in Whistler, is frozen so planes can’t take off or land.
