点评:Easy to find the SkyTrain -Canada Line YVR Airport Station from domestic Terminal M. We just followed the signs that said "Train to City." I remember we rode the elevator from the baggage carousels and were greeted next by the sight of this huge totem pole. We then saw the Train to City entrance (to overhead walkway) on the right. There were queues at several Compass vending machines when we reached the platform. We decided to tap our credit card at the fare gate rather than buy a single-use ticket or a reloadable Compass card. This meant we got on the first SkyTrain we saw arrive at YVR Airport Station and leave for Waterfront.
Very spacious leg room, perfect for putting luggage out of other riders’ way. Can sit at the front/end and have front-row view of the tracks--train is fully automated so there is no driver. The ride started above ground then eventually went and stayed underground. Train got pretty full halfway along the route. Ride took about 25 mins. Had to tap out at the fare gate to exit Vancouver City Centre Station. The ride was a 2-fare zone but since TransLink has this weekend rate where all travels are 1-zone fare, our fare cost CAD 8.35 per person. Our fare breakdown: YVR Airport AddFare CAD 5.00 + 1-zone contactless credit card fare (same as adult cash fare) CAD 3.35.
Also tapped our credit card for the ride back to YVR Airport from Vancouver City Centre Station. Actually made a stupid mistake and rode the Richmond-Brighouse train. Realized the error, got off at the next station, Yaletown-Roundhouse, and waited for the train heading to YVR Airport which arrived shortly. Return fare to the airport is cheaper (no AddFare), only CAD 3.35 (also a weekend rate).
Would not hesitate to ride Canada Line again if back in Vancouver. Convenient and cheap way to reach downtown Vancouver from the airport and back, even with luggage. Highly recommend.
翻译:从国内M航站楼很容易找到加拿大线的YVR机场站。我们跟着“开往市区的列车”的指示牌走就行了。我记得我们从行李传送带出来乘电梯,映入眼帘的是一个巨大的图腾柱。然后,我们在右侧看到了开往市区的列车入口(通往高架步道)。到达站台时,几台Compass自动售票机前排起了长队。我们决定在检票口刷信用卡,而不是购买一次性车票或可充值的Compass卡。这意味着我们乘坐了第一班到达YVR机场站的天车,前往滨水区。
腿部空间非常宽敞,非常适合放置行李,不会妨碍其他乘客。可以坐在车头/车尾,享受前排视野,欣赏轨道——列车是全自动的,没有司机。列车从地面开始,最终进入地下,并停留在地面上。列车在中途就挤满了人。行程大约25分钟。出温哥华市中心站需要在检票口刷卡。我们乘坐的是双区票价,但由于TransLink周末票价是单区票价,所以我们的票价是每人8.35加元。票价明细:温哥华国际机场附加票价5加元 + 单区非接触式信用卡票价(与成人现金票价相同)3.35加元。
我们还刷了信用卡从温哥华市中心站返回温哥华国际机场。其实我们犯了一个愚蠢的错误,坐上了里士满-布里格豪斯的火车。意识到错误后,我们在下一站耶鲁镇-圆屋站下车,等了一会儿开往温哥华国际机场的火车。返回机场的票价更便宜(无需附加票价),只需3.35加元(也是周末票价)。
如果回温哥华,我会毫不犹豫地再次乘坐加拿大线。这是一种往返温哥华市中心的便捷又便宜的方式,即使带着行李也可以。强烈推荐。
