Will 3 hours 15 mins layover enough to transit at YVR (not a US or CA citizen)? Do I need to collect my checked bag at YVR? or maybe the checked luggage can straight forward to the final destination, SYD (Separate tickets)?

Thx!

You can ask UA to check it thru to final destination. Whether or not they will given it's interlining on ANA I am unsure, you could post that question on the UA board (I believe reposting just that bit is allowed) but it may very well depend upon the quality of the agent you find.

And you would want to (re)checkin at the airport (BOS that is). A bag drop line from kiosk ticket is not going to work here. Hopefully BOS beats SFO UA here where they seemed completely devoid of humans.
