2 Boaters Posted November 1, 2022 #1 Share Posted November 1, 2022 We're staying at the Sheraton Wall Center the night before and after our Alaskan cruise and are wondering what options you would recommend for transfers from the airport to the hotel and to/from the cruise terminal.

Rare Mary229 Posted November 1, 2022 #2 Share Posted November 1, 2022 (edited) Most will say the train but I spent a few days recently in Vancouver and had very good Uber drivers for the whole stay and the prices were reasonable. And yes the Uber experience seems to vary city to city. Edited November 1, 2022 by Mary229 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xlxo Posted November 2, 2022 #3 Share Posted November 2, 2022 I would taxi or uber from airport to hotel for door to door convenience. Depending on how much luggage.... Some may choose to walk 17 minutes or 3/4 miles to the cruise terminal. Otherwise taxi/uber it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare martincath Posted November 2, 2022 #4 Share Posted November 2, 2022 Depending how many are included in your 'we' OP, the train might save a few bucks or not since it's priced per person, whereas cabs and Uber are per vehicle. The Wall isn't the most convenient hotel for it - almost a half-mile on foot from the nearest Canada Line stop (City Centre) - but if you travel light or fancy the exercise enough to consider walking to the pier, it's definitely feasible to walk with your bags from SkyTrain... whether you feel it's worthwhile though depends on you. Taxis are fixed rate - so cheaper than Uber if any kind of Surge is in play - of $34 leaving the airport. Metered on the way back, but usually a very similar price. Hotel to pier - metered, ballpark $10, but if it's busy day you could easily add another two or three bucks waiting to get inside as it's single lane, one-out-one-in. Uber on short trips is less of a deal due to surcharges that don't apply to cabs - so I'd assume the same price as a cab on short hops like this of a mile or less. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
