The Vancouver International Airport is a beautiful, and probably one of the best in the world  airport is about a 40 minute ride from the Alaska Cruise/Vancouver Ship Terminal.

As the time is going by cruise lines are getting more flexible and aim to make passengers life much more easy then before now many of the cruise lines offer transfers to and from the airport they usually charge you some fee for that but my tip for you is to always check if transfers has been included in your package or not.
