Langley Regional Airport (YNJ) Transfers
Private chauffeur transfers at Langley Regional, Vancouver.
Langley Regional is operated by the Township of Langley and describes itself, fairly, as a progressive community-owned airport. It provides non-scheduled flight operations for commercial and private aircraft operators, and it has been flying since 1945, when it was a Royal Canadian Air Force airport; the Township leased and then bought it in 1967.
It is one of the busiest general aviation airports in the country, handling up to 100,000 fixed-wing and rotary movements a year, and 55 aviation businesses are based on the site - chartered helicopter and fixed-wing flights, aerospace innovation, parts manufacturing and maintenance among them. The field is certified for public day and night VFR operation seven days a week, with two runways up to 836 metres and three helicopter pads.

How pickup works at Langley Regional
The two runways here are short by commercial standards, at up to 836 metres, so the traffic is light aircraft and helicopters rather than jets. That is worth knowing before you plan an arrival around it.
Your chauffeur meets you at the operator you are arriving with. Give us the operator, the registration and the expected time when you book, and dispatch confirms the meeting point - with three helicopter pads and 55 businesses on the field, saying which one you are coming into is the difference between a car waiting beside you and a car waiting at the wrong gate.
Sixty minutes of complimentary waiting from arrival are included, and meet and greet applies: the chauffeur comes into the FBO or private terminal lounge where your aircraft is handled and meets you inside. On a field carrying this many separate operators, saying which one is handling you is what makes that work.
Trips within British Columbia are arranged by quote.
The included waiting period and the per-minute rate after it are set out in clause 4 of our Terms.

Questions about Langley Regional
Can a jet land at Langley?
The longest runway here is 836 metres, which puts jets out of the question for practical purposes. If you are arriving on one, Vancouver International or Abbotsford are the fields to look at, and both have pages here.
Do you cover charter and helicopter arrivals?
Yes. Charter and helicopter operators make up a good part of the 55 aviation businesses on the field. Tell us which operator and which pad or gate, and dispatch puts the car there.
Is the airport open at night?
It is certified for public day and night VFR operation seven days a week, so an evening arrival is normal. Give us the expected time and we will have a car waiting for it.
How is a pickup booked?
By quote, because a trip with both ends in British Columbia falls outside the online booking rule, which needs an Ontario end. Call or request a quote, and you get a fixed fare in Canadian dollars before anything is confirmed.
