I am flying ICN-YVR-SEA. I only have exactly 1 hour and 40 mins in YVR. I do have NEXUS.
1) I take it this is very doable with that connecting time?
2) Do I have to pick up my bags to re-check? Or are they automatically checked through to SEA?
Zero issues with that connection time, especially with Nexus. As long as the inbound flight is on time.
Depends who you are flying with for the bags. If it's AC, they should be checked through and you don't need to collect them. If you're coming off the pointy end of the plane and breeze through CBSA and security thanks to Nexus, you'll likely have to wait for the bags to be unloaded and brought to wherever they go in the bowels of the building for CBP to be able to bring them up on screen.
