Downtown / Alberni
YVR Airport to Shangri-La Vancouver
The Shangri-La occupies the lower floors of one of the tallest towers in Vancouver, on West Georgia at the edge of the Alberni Street luxury retail strip. It draws a high share of long-haul arrivals from Asia, which concentrates check-ins in the late afternoon.

Included, Not Extra
What comes with every transfer
1 hour of wait time
Included free on airport pickups. Customs and baggage take as long as they take — you are not paying for that.
Meet and greet
Your chauffeur waits inside with a name sign after baggage claim. No phone calls from the curb, no hunting for a plate number.
Flight tracking
We watch your flight. If you land early or late, the pickup time moves with it — automatically.
Free cancellation up to 24 hours before
Plans change. Cancel inside the window and you are refunded in full, back to the original card.
Cancellations made less than 24 hours before pickup are refunded at 50%, as the chauffeur has already been dispatched.
Who books this ride
Luxury leisure and long-haul business travellers
