Walking into the Plaza Premium Lounge, I had pretty realistic expectations -- especially coming…read morefrom frequent visits to lounges like the American Express Centurion Lounge and Delta Sky Club. Unfortunately, this one didn't quite measure up. The overall experience felt a bit underwhelming. The space itself could definitely use some TLC -- the furniture looked worn and dated, and it gave off more of a tired, well-used vibe rather than a relaxing pre-flight retreat. One of the bigger misses for me was the lack of accessible power outlets, which is something you really come to rely on when traveling. That said, it wasn't a terrible stop -- just not quite what I've come to expect from premium lounge experiences (as its name would imply). With a refresh and a few updates, it could easily be brought back up to par. For now, it's serviceable, but not somewhere I'd go out of my way to revisit.

Once the rental car was turned…read morein we walked to the hotel, checked in, dropped bags and headed to Jetside Lounge for a light lunch. Wow, the views are awesome overlooking the airport and watching planes come and go. Our server was really friendly, we explored the menu and made our decision on lunch. I chose the spring rolls and Mr. B went with Fish and Chips. There were four spring rolls on the plate with a nice plum dipping sauce. They were fried to perfection and were nice and brown, crispy and crunchy and the veggies on the inside were hot and tender. They were seasoned on the inside and had the perfect level of salt to bring out the veggie flavors. Mr. B's Fish was huge, it also was perfectly fried, crispy and crunchy and the fish was flaky and tender on the inside. The fries were hot and crispy too. There was a small bowl of crunchy coleslaw on the side. We were thrilled with our lunch. If you ever find yourself staying at the Fairmont at YVR, you need to give this spot a try.

After navigating the maze to customs (typical), while absorbing a bit of the cultureI arrived to a surprisingly calm, low stress process to baggage. I walked right up to a customs kiosk, chose my preferred language, answered the typical questions, snapped a pic and received a slip of paper. That paper went to an officer and I was on my way. No fuzz, no language barriers, no targeted "intimidation intending"!interrogation, no stare downs...can you tell I've recently been to Germany? Just peace, and honesty, it looked to be that way for most everyone who passed through. Our return trip to Houston I was reminded that as a country, we've pissed Canada off. My husband was randomly selected for additional screening...okay, but then my bag was super searched. The same one with the same items I've carried to 6+ other countries in the last couple of years

I do appreciate that trams are not needed to transfer you to the different airlines , just a LOT of walking between the four levels. -Level one is a service plaza with restaurants and convenience stores -Level two is for domestic and international arrivals with baggage carousels. -Level three is for domestic and international departures. -Level four is where you can catch the Canada line Skytrain. The Fairmont Vancouver Airport Hotel is conveniently connected for to travelers. It's just a five to ten minute walk away. This airport has won awards for its special nature inspired West Coast design. Highlights include an aquarium with 800 animals, a creek, Indigenous sculptures and totem poles throughout the airport. As with all airports, it is congested at times but being the second busiest international airport in the country, I expect this.

It is less crazy getting through the security line.I was flying international and because my flight was during the daytime, it was super long. So long that someone had to direct us to another security gate. All international flights fly out of Gate D. I was heading to Paris at that time. So definitely flying out of gate D. Gate D has better lounges. This is always the case at any airport. Even the AC lounge here has a chef cooking food on the spot. There is much more to see at the international departure side. The duty free section is way bigger and there are two duty free shops at Gate D.
