Some suggestions for local travel at YVR.

--- This message came from the IEEE 802.11 Working Group Reflector ---

As was learned during last August's IETF meeting at the same venue, if 
you're going to use the SkyTrain for more than just getting to the 
hotel, it's advantageous and relatively easy to buy a book of tickets 
that saves you a whole lot of money including not having to pay the 
airport surcharge. Details can be found in this message:

http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/84attendees/current/msg00076.html

The book of tickets can be shared (it's not a single 10-ride ticket).

If I recall correctly, on weekends, a one-zone ticket suffices to get to 
the hotel instead of the usual two-zone ticket.  Unless it's miserably 
cold or snowing outside, you don't really have to transfer either.  It's 
3 short blocks from City Centre station to the Hyatt.

There is an easy access "Sky Train" (subway style) service, from YVR to 
the Hyatt Regency Vancouver.

Details are as follows:

Vancouver International Airport (YVR) Transportation


Canada Line: The Canada Line connects Vancouver International Airport to
downtown Vancouver in under 30 minutes. Cost is $3.75 CAD for adults and
$2.50 CAD for children each way, plus a $5.00 CAD surcharge for all 
trips originating at the airport. Hyatt Regency Vancouver is located at 
the Burrard Street Station and will require a transfer at either 
Granville Station or Waterfront Station. Please visit
