Air Canada has opened its fourth Air Canada Café, bringing the premium grab-and-go concept to Vancouver International Airport (YVR).
Located in the domestic terminal between Gates C46 and C47, the new Café draws inspiration from Vancouver’s natural beauty, cultural diversity, and deep connections to the land.
The 2,142-square-foot (approx.138-square-metre) Air Canada Café blends local flavours with convenient amenities, featuring a selection of quintessential Vancouver cuisine, from Nanaimo bars to Asian-influenced bites, and self-serve beverages.
Eligible customers can enjoy easy entry by scanning their boarding pass at the eGates.
“This new space is all about offering guests a thoughtful blend of modern amenities and cozy vibes, while celebrating the beauty and spirit of Vancouver,” said Jacqueline Harkness, managing director, product and services at Air Canada. “We hope the Air Canada Café becomes a go-to place for our customers to unwind and recharge, making their time at YVR even more enjoyable.”
The menu serves as a “culinary tribute to Vancouver,” reads a press release.
The Café also showcases a series of four original works by Vancouver-based, Chinese-Canadian artist Scott Sueme, whose bold compositions blend abstract shapes, symbols, and text to evoke themes of nature, identity, and belonging.
The series reflects the artist’s history as a street artist and Air Canada’s celebration of the creativity and culture that define the West Coast.
Capacity for 52 customers in a 2,142-square-foot space, guests will also find power at every seat, including USB-C ports with wattage to charge a laptop.
The Air Canada Café at Vancouver International Airport is available to Air Canada customers travelling on a Business Class ticket, Aeroplan 50K, 75K, or Aeroplan Super Elite Status Members, Star Alliance Gold customers, and Aeroplan premium co-brand cardholders.
Air Canada Cafes are also featured at Toronto Pearson, at Toronto’s Billy Bishop in collaboration with Aspire, at Montréal-Trudeau, and now Vancouver International.
Air Canada continues to modernize and expand its lounge network.
By the end of 2025, the airline will have added over 500 additional lounge seats worldwide, delivering more space and amenities for travellers.
The expansion builds on series of recent lounge upgrades that introduce elevated design, modern seating, and improved power access in select locations.
