Air Canada Elevates Travel Experience for Japanese Passengers

Air Canada has recently unveiled an exciting campaign aimed at enhancing the travel experience for Japanese passengers transiting through Vancouver International Airport. Running from October 1 to December 31, 2026, the campaign, aptly named A little extra when you connect through Vancouver, offers various exclusive benefits to make layovers more enjoyable.

This initiative is designed for guests traveling from Japan to the United States with a stopover in Vancouver, as well as for those who return home on the same route. Typically, layover periods can feel monotonous, but this campaign encourages travelers to turn their waiting time into a memorable part of their journey by engaging in shopping, dining, and relaxation.

Exceptional Offers Await

Participants in this campaign can take advantage of exceptional offers provided by six partnered businesses located both in and around the Vancouver International Airport. These perks are specially curated to ensure travelers can make the most out of their layover time. Here’s a glimpse of the main offers included in the campaign:

1. Fairmont Vancouver Airport: Enjoy a 10% discount on day-use room rates as well as dining at the hotel's Globe@YVR restaurant. Ideal for passengers with layover times of four to five hours, the hotel is conveniently located outside the security area, requiring guests to complete security checks before re-entering for their flights.

2. Vancouver Duty Free: Spend over 150 Canadian dollars and receive a complimentary gift box of ten bags of Canadian ginseng tea. Additional services like dedicated shopping assistance and extra bonuses might also be available based on purchasing conditions.

3. DOMREBEL: Even without making a purchase, visitors will receive a limited edition of Art Magazine Vol. 1. Plus, those who shop in-store will get an exclusive cap designed for Vancouver International Airport.

4. Absolute Spa: Travelers can benefit from a 15% discount on select spa services and skincare products to rejuvenate themselves during their layover.

5. Vino Volo: Delight in a tasting of British Columbia wines, known as the BC Wine Flight, available at regular menu prices. For just six Canadian dollars more, guests can add a mini bruschetta and receive a unique BC Wine Region tasting card.

6. McArthurGlen Designer Outlet: This outlet offers a welcome pack containing a 10% discount card usable at around 45 designer brands and more than ten restaurants. Located outside the airport and approximately a five-minute walk from Templeton Station on the Canada Line, it's perfect for travelers with extended layover times.

How to Avail the Offers

Travelers can redeem these perks by presenting two boarding passes at participating stores: one for the Air Canada flight from Japan to Vancouver and one for the onward flight to the USA. Similarly, return travelers can utilize the offers by showing valid boarding passes corresponding to their flights. No need for additional coupons or promotional codes!
