This article is from The Richmond News:
For the ninth year in a row, Vancouver International Airport has been voted best airport in North America at the Skytrax World Airport Awards.
Results from the annual Skytrax World Airport Awards are taken from an independent customer satisfaction survey. For the 2018 awards, 13.73 million airport questionnaires were completed and covered 550 airports around the world. The survey was available in English, Spanish and Chinese. Globally, YVR ranked 14th this year, while the number one airport was Singapore Changi.

I worked at YVR during the 80's. It was a much smaller airport but quite a community. I remember when you parked underground where customs and immigration is now located. The growth of this airport is incredible. If anyone is planning on parking at YVR during the next few months, they are adding to the terminal and the three story parking lot is being demolished. Parking is getting more difficult so take a taxi, skytrain or use Park N Fly valet parking. I have discount coupons for Park N Fly so email me if you want one.On September 11, 2001, I was working at the end of runway 08 in Richmond with a clear view of the runway. I watched as all the planes that couldn't land in the US, diverted to YVR.
