YVR Domestic Terminal
Hey guys and gals,
Quick question about YVR terminal...
I have some family coming with me to YVR this weekend, and on Sunday we take off.
My family members are flying YVR-YYC on AC, I am flying YVR-YEG on WJ. Both departing at 5-5:30 pm ish.
Question 1:
Are the wings attached at some point, and how hard is it to get from one to the other?
I.e can I go to their 'AC' side of the terminal through security with my WJ boarding pass, or will they force me to go through the WJ security gate? If they do, is there an adjoiner tunnel...?
Question 2:
I am 35k elite, with AMEX aeroplan platinum and the associated priority pass.
Will I be able to go in to MLL and guest one of them in on my AMEX...without having an AC boarding card...?
Is it better to bring them to Premium Plaza Lounge on WJ side(where I can guest one, and pay for one)?
Thanks for the help!

Yes, the A/B and C wings are attached via a moving sidewalk to the west of the security checkpoints (along the west glass wall).

You'd have to pay to get them into the MLL via amex as well, and I've seen lounge agents say no if they're not on *A (not sure if this is an unwritten rule or if it was a space thing)
Thanks for the help!
