Great experience! Thanks Michael. - Thankyou Michael for being such a kind and helpful bus driver. I was travelling with a bike in a box, a suitcase and I was on crutches and I was looked after really well. I received help putting the bike box and bag on the bus and the front seat was reserved for me to cater to my injury. Not to mention assistance getting an airport trolly once we arrived at the airport. Really appreciated the extra lengths that Michael went to for me, it made travelling solo and with alot of equipment so much easier. The booking system was easy and the trip was beautiful along the Sea to Sky on the 4:30pm trip to the international airport from Squamish. Thankyou for a great experience.

Organized - Just a very well run service that made my travel smooth and simple. There is a kiosk right in the airport so it made it very easy to check in and find the bus. I was worried that I would be lost but was helped right away by the kiosk tenant. He was cute too 🤣

Great transportation to the airport - What a quality driver we had. Friendly, helpful, a cheerful mood and - not to neglect - calm driving in very rainy weather. Left as scheduled from centre of Whistler. Bus was clean and comfortable. Would Skylynx absolutely use again. Booking was easy and affordable.

Excellent Value! - When planning a visit to Whistler you may wonder, do I really need a rental car after landing in Vancouver? Other than running up your hotel bill with daily parking fees and leaving you to question whether or not you have international car insurance, what good does it do you? Fortunately during this trip we discovered “YVR Skylynx.” Their buses provide service to connect Vancouver International and Whistler Village or Downtown Vancouver and Whistler Village. The buses are air conditioned, offer free Wi-Fi, each seat provides outlets to power your devices, and there is a restroom onboard. We found the seats comfortable and they offer the ability to recline. There are multiple daily routes that offer gorgeous views along the Sea to Sky Highway (and have a minimum of stops). Most passengers will find the ride to be a smooth one, but those who suffer from motion sickness should be able to endure the limited twisty sections with a little help from a motion sickness supplement. Your first two luggage items are complimentary and you can transport your bike, skis, snowboard, golf clubs, and/or additional luggage for an additional fee (and overhead storage is available for your carry-on items). If you’re looking for an inexpensive and convenient option to transport you between Vancouver and Whistler, we found this to be an excellent choice. And that’s…Henry’s Take. #vancouvertowhistler

Great experience - but to much cologne of another passenger made the first leg challenging - You should apply a no scent policy. There was a gentleman which applied way too much cologne and the drive from Squamish to Vancouver DT was horrible and I got a headache thanks to the fumes from the seat in front of me. Dave your driver is a class guy and the drive from Vancouver DT to the airport was a very pleasant experience. Thanks to Dave and his way of making me comfortable with a conversation and his driving skills the ride from DT to the airport was very informative, fun and an insight in the drivers perspective.

Difficult journey due to an annual cycle race - On time excellent service from Whistler, delays were unavoidable due to an annual cycle race from Vancouver, originally booked an 11am departure time - perhaps could have been a cancelled service time as the race would have meant I would have missed my flight. Family advised me to go on an earlier schedule. Skylynx please do not book people for the portion of the day that you cannot move people especially if there are international flights involved. We definitely would have missed our flight. Please take this into account and do not offer travel that cannot be assured. Driver was informative, comforting and all round a great driver under difficult circumstances; side note the poor guy had to do it all himself (baggage management, checkins, informing passengers, driving with care and attention) Hats off to our driver.

Viiator who? - No record of my purchase with the vendor for the bus trip, allowed me to go in any case. Checked his reservations and no record of mine. Waited until all were boarded before I was permitted on. Very courteous driver & quality bus.
