YVR terminal access question
Hi everyone! I am flying into YVR and will arrive after midnight. My connection does not depart until 5:50am. I would arrive on a US flight and depart on a US flight. The Priority Pass app says that the SkyTeam lounge in the International Terminal is open 24/7. Is there a way to access this lounge with my boarding pass. I am considering buying an international ticket and then cancelling it just to access the terminal (and then access the lounge using Priority Pass). I don't want to deal with that hassle however. Is there any way to access the INTL terminal on a domestic (US) ticket?

I dont see any other way than what you have suggested. Buy an international ticket to gain access to the lounge.
that lounge is great though. One of my favorties lounges. I like it better than the cx or prioity pass lounges in hong kong.

Very unlikely you get access to the INTL terminal. That's just a ...... connection in general though, might be worth just hanging out landside until US Customs opens (4:30am). There's benches you can lie down at least.
Alternatively there's a fairmont landside if you want to lie down a few hours and not go through the INTL ticket purchase/refund.
