TMLAalum Posted February 9 #1 Share Posted February 9 YVR EXPRESS | YVR We have Global Entry. Does signing up for a time slot via YVR Express give us any advantage in getting thru US Customs/Border Control? The website doesn't address passengers who have GE, just suggests using the Mobile Passport app. Our Air Canada flight to PDX departs at 1:30pm and we were planning on getting to the airport @11am.

cruiseryyc Posted February 10 #2 Share Posted February 10 I believe the YVR Express only gets you through security not US Border. 2.5 hours ahead of your flight should be plenty of time to get through Security and Border Control. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare martincath Posted February 12 #3 Share Posted February 12 GE gets you into the short queue without an appointment for both Security and CBP Precreening; YVR Express is thus pointless for you, as it only gets you into the Security short queue you are already entitled to! Even if it's a very busy cruise day, if you make use of free WiFi (all over the city these days, even on transit) or aboard ship to check yourself in for your flight you can walk right over to the bag drop and then go join the short Security queue with GE, so there's a good chance you'll find arriving 2.5hrs early means killing 2 hours at the gate... but since it sounds like this is your first time at YVR so you won't be familiar with the layout, giving yourself 2+ hours is sensible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
