Airport Workers Day is Cleared for Takeout!

We are celebrating our amazing airport community with incredible food and unforgettable experiences.

On Airport Workers Day, we are celebrating YOU as the airport workers who are truly “moving what matters” here at YVR. We all know the vital role you play in connecting communities and supporting our economy. Thank you all for your hard work and dedication.

Throughout the day, we'll be celebrating our amazing people who are "moving what matters" and highlighting the vital contributions airport workers make to our communities and economy. Whether you're out on the ramp, working behind the scenes, or welcoming passengers face-to-face, your work is essential to our airport, community, and economy.

To show our appreciation and as part of the continued transformation of our Food & Beverage Program, we're inviting you to enjoy a taste of YVR. Many of our partners have created delicious, limited-time selections just for this occasion. It's a small gesture of appreciation for the big impact you make every day. Redeem your free meal vouchers June 25 – July 14, 2025, at participating YVR food and beverage partners throughout the terminal. 

Vouchers will be distributed by your employer on behalf of YVR. If you are an airport employee and your organization at YVR has not received meal vouchers, please email [email protected]
