    • Busy long weekend for YVR airport

    The Vancouver International Airport says it’s gearing up for a busy long weekend by launching a new tool to help travellers get to their gate on time.

    A new Q-R code called Y-V-R TimeLine allows travellers to check if they are at risk of missing their plane by entering their flight number.

    Y-V-R says if the system identifies someone might miss their flight, they will be fast-tracked through security. 

    It's anticipated more than 318-thousand passengers will fly into and out of the airport from today until Monday.
