first-in-North-America Plaza Premium First. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This upgraded Plaza Premium offers a premium buffet, \u00e0 la carte menu, fine wine, handcrafted cocktails, and more, all in an elegant space that overlooks the departure gates below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To access the Plaza Premium First, you can either pre-book (or walk-in if there&#8217;s space) and pay around $110 for your visit, or you can potentially use one of your credit card&#8217;s complimentary passes and pay an upgrade fee of around $30-50.<\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"component component__image has-text-align-center

Children<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>For travellers looking to bring a guest or child with them when they visit a lounge at Vancouver International Airport, the rules can be a bit confusing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Generally speaking, most lounges allow children under 2 years old to enter for free with an eligible adult, and then children over 2 years old are required to purchase or redeem a guest pass. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, some lounge programs let you use your free passes to bring guests (1 pass = 1 person), whereas others only let you redeem the passes for yourself. You&#8217;ll want to check the rules at the lounge you plan to visit, as well as your card&#8217;s terms and conditions in order to determine what&#8217;s allowed for your specific situation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, if you&#8217;re accessing a lounge using a business class or first class ticket, it&#8217;s worth double-checking the lounge guidelines for guests. In many cases, you&#8217;re allowed to bring a guest or two, but every so often you&#8217;re not (this is mostly the case with especially fancy lounges).<\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"component

familiar with getting ready for a trip knows that a lot of planning can go into our pre-departure preparations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To make sure you&#8217;re set for travel success, make sure that you&#8217;ve considered the following before heading out the door:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"component component__list checkmarks\"><ul class=\"wp-block-list is-style-checkmarks\">\n<li>Confirm that

rules<\/a> so that you&#8217;re not hit with unnecessary fees when you check-in<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If you&#8217;re travelling abroad, we recommend getting a reliable eSIM from a vendor like <a
