One-Way Service
One-Way Service covers one journey between two addresses: the YXX terminal to a home in Chilliwack, the airport to an office in Surrey, the terminal to a hotel in Bellingham across the border. For an airport pickup, your chauffeur checks the flight status and times the pickup to when you actually land, and your booking confirmation shows where to meet the chauffeur; the exact spot follows the airport's own pickup rules.
Round-Trip Service
Round-Trip Service books both directions in one reservation: from YXX to a hotel near Tradex when the crew lands, then back to the terminal after the show is packed up. With the airport this close to the halls, the return is mostly about the time the last box is loaded. With both directions in one booking, the return is secured from the start; you set both pickup times yourself, and the confirmation lists them.
Hourly Service
Some arrival days do not end at one address. With hourly service from YXX you choose at booking where the day starts, where it ends and how many hours you need, and the same chauffeur and vehicle remain with you for that whole period. Send the day's program with the booking, so the chauffeur has it before you land. It suits a day built around appointments rather than a single destination.

Sprinter Van Service at Abbotsford International Airport (YXX)

Exhibitor crews make up a typical van group here. Tradex, the Fraser Valley Trade and Exhibition Centre, sits right beside the runways, with two halls of 60,000 sq ft that can be used apart or as one, and a crew usually flies in with stand panels and sample boxes. A Sprinter van carries up to 12 passengers with their luggage. Tell support how many boxes come along, and the vehicle is matched to the load. If the crew lands on several flights, every arrival gets a transfer of its own, and when you book for other people, all their transfers can be kept in one account, each with its own booking and confirmation.

Long-haul trips from the region often start at the larger airport instead. Vancouver International (YVR) is about 74 km from YXX, 1 hour 5 minutes to 1 hour 30 minutes, so check which airport each traveller's ticket shows before you book.

Charter Bus Service at Abbotsford International Airport (YXX)

Each August the Abbotsford International Airshow takes over the airfield for a weekend, and spectators, crews and volunteers arrive from across the province. Coaches come in several sizes with up to 56 seats, and the luggage travels in the hold, which also suits sports teams and school groups. Harrison Hot Springs, at the foot of the mountains, is about 67 km away, 50 minutes to 1 hour 10 minutes. Whistler is 188 km, 2 hours 25 minutes to 3 hours 15 minutes.

The US is close. The Huntingdon crossing to Sumas, open 24 hours, is about 12 km from the terminal; Bellingham, in Washington State, is about 43 km, and Seattle about 187 km, 2 hours 10 minutes to 2 hours 55 minutes. The trip runs with the same chauffeur and car from start to finish, with no change of vehicle at the border. Visitors who need an ESTA must have it approved before they cross into the US by land, and they receive their I-94 record at the land port. Carry the travel documents your nationality and itinerary require.

During airshow weekend, local vehicles and drivers are booked up early. If your plans go beyond a standard booking, write to support with the dates, addresses, number of passengers, flights and luggage, and the team will arrange it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know before booking your airport transfer with Bookinglane.

How do I get from Abbotsford airport to Vancouver?

By car, downtown Vancouver is 67 km from YXX, 55 minutes to 1 hour 15 minutes, with more time at rush hour on Highway 1. Scheduled intercity coaches also call at the terminal. Book with your flight number, and the pickup follows the time you land.

Does Abbotsford airport have US customs preclearance?

No. YXX does not appear on the US list of preclearance airports. For a flight to the US with preclearance, the nearest option is Vancouver International (YVR), about 74 km away.

How far is Bellingham airport from Abbotsford airport?

Bellingham International (BLI), across the border in Washington State, is about 44 km from YXX, 40–55 minutes plus the time at the crossing. Over a 12-year period, Canadians made up about 65% of its customers.

Our group arrives on different flights — can that be arranged?

Yes. An exhibitor crew or a sports team often comes in on more than one plane, and when it arrives on several flights, every arrival gets a transfer of its own. Before you book, tell support how many cases, boxes or sports bags travel with the party, not only the number of passengers.

What do passengers need to know about Abbotsford International Airport (YXX) in 2026 and 2027?

Highway 1 is being widened through the area: the section from 264 Street to Mount Lehman Road is due in 2029, and the section east of Mount Lehman Road to Highway 11 in 2031, so allow for roadwork. The airshow returns to the airport each August.
