Air Travel Information

NOTE: While there is a PROBABILITY that Todd will compete in this event, keep in mind that in the event of injury, illness or ISU conflicts, Todd may have no choice but to withdraw from this event. You may want to wait until the last possible moment to purchase your tickets if you plan to buy restricted/non-transferable fares. Also, it's a good idea to allow adequate time between connecting flights (2 hours) in the event of a flight delay!

The Airport you will want to fly into is: Vancouver International Airport (YVR).
