Flights from Vancouver to Los Angeles: the best tips from KAYAK users' own experiences

Insights shared by verified travellers who flew the route from Vancouver to Los Angeles 
Verified travelerFlew with Air Canada-Aug 2026
I really enjoyed the Air Canada flight. Boarding was smooth, comfortable and spacious. Plane was on schedule. Tips I recommended bringing a water bottle and ear phones so you can watch a movie. Also activate your AC Aéroplan before checking in online for free wifi.
Verified travelerFlew with WestJet-Jun 2026
I think it is important to compare the baggage fees and the rules between paying online and at the airport. It is important to ask if there are different fees for luggage fees weighing less than 50 lbs other than 50 lbs.
Verified travelerFlew with Air Canada-Jun 2025
Vancouver - allow for enough time to get through the process. Numerous restaurants at Vancouver airport, very good waiting areas and space. Reasonably efficient international customs processing.
Verified travelerFlew with United Airlines-Apr 2024
If your going to Dominican, you need to apply for a e eticket which takes about 10 mins
