YVR is expecting over 75,000 travellers to come and go on Friday, with 65,000 on Christmas Day and 68,000 on Boxing Day.
Last year, the airport was hit with a snowstorm that left many passengers stranded resulting in chaos inside the terminals.
The airport’s president and CEO, Tamara Vrooman, says to help avoid that from repeating, they have invested $40 million into staffing and operational enhancements.
