YVR Dual Boarding Bridge System
Does YVR have the above for the international 747's? Or is it all single bridge loading?

Cheers,
Erik

Wish I could just download your brain, as you seem to have answers to all my questions.

I may have seen double bridges in September (the newer gates in the NW of that picture). Just am not 100% sure as disembarkation was through 2L.

There are a few gates at the end of the newly added INTL pier that have dual bridges. I believe gate 58 is one of them. There are also 3 dual bridges in the domestic section for WS too.

The dual bridges for WS at A Gates is for front and back doors of B737. The dual bridge system at C/D Gates are for both front doors (before the wing) for bigger planes such as A380 or B747.
