Us Citizen Layover in YVR
I am a US citizen traveling SFO-YVR-PEK and my return is PVG-YVR-SFO. On the return leg, do I have to clear customs in YVR and SFO, or just SFO, or just YVR? All flights are on Air Canada / Rouge, Terminal M - Main.
Also, my return layover is only 90 minutes in YVR, do you think that is long enough?
Thanks

On the return, YVR has USCBP pre-clearance.

Just a similar question to the last one, if I'm flying YYZ-YVR-SEA, do I pick up my bag in YVR to go through US customs? I'm flying YVR and considering making that route as a hidden city but want to check luggage.
