In a previous article, I commented on the benefits of using Seattle Tacoma airport (SEA) as an alternative airport for both Vancouver (YVR) and Victoria (YYJ). In this article, Ill discuss the best ways to get from the Vancouver area to SEA by car

In this series, I will talk about how to use Seattle as an alternate airport for those in the Vancouver…

Both Victoria and Vancouver are beautiful cities on Canada’s west coast. Vancouver’s airport serves certain markets very well but some markets are not served very well. For the times when flights are expensive or inconvenient out of YVR or YYJ, it is good to know that Seattle – Tacoma Airport (SEA) makes a good alternative.

The ability to use stopovers on award flights can save you significant amounts of money. There area few cases when the stopover feature can be used to your advantage:

Making a trip with the intention of visiting 2 places (natural stopover)
Reducing taxes and fees
Circumventing routing rules to open up award availability
Combining 2 disjointed trips with your home airport as a stopover (creative stopover)
