Flights are available to Vancouver International Airport from a number of carriers from as little as £120 each way with both Zoom Airlines and Canadian Affair.
It is also relatively easy to fly with some airlines to Seattle Airport and catch a bus to Vancouver from there. To be honest, the saving that you make doesnt justify the additional travel time.

Last minute flight deals are always available - See if we can accomodate you!


We do have a 5% discount scheme with Zoom, ask us if you are booking flights and we will tell you how to make use of this discount on web reservations.

British Airways Safety Services have determined that it is not necessary from a safety perspective to deflate typical tyres found on bikes and wheelchairs for carriage in the hold. However, to eliminate the small risk of them being damaged by bursting, you may wish to deflate the tyres. Understandably this decision may be influenced by how easily the tyres could be inflated upon arrival.
Your bicycle (single seat, non-motorised) will be weighed with other checked baggage and included in your checked baggage allowance when the weight allowance is used. Excess charges will apply if the checked baggage allowance is exceeded.*
Bicycles may be counted as one (1) piece of baggage when the piece allowance applies. Excess charges will apply if the checked baggage allowance is exceeded.*
N.B. If traveling with a bicycle please check with your local British Airways office when traveling on a regional service using small aircraft (CRJ, ERJ, DH8, ATR) as some aircraft may not accommodate them.
