^ That sucks,
It's only 2 city buses to get to the Skytrain, 1 bus is the airport shuttle, 2nd bus is the 98-b-line, then you get off and take the skytrain to Main station, which is where the greyhound is, then it's only like $60 return ticket to get to whistler and back...
it's easy...

a taxi is around $90-$100, so if you can find someone else to go with you its cheaper and quicker than the bus.

Pack light, take the 99 B line to downtown, the take the bus over the lions gate to horseshoe bay ferry terminal, then hitchhike to whistler. Total cost: $3.25. Do it after 6:30 pm on weekdays, or any time on the weekend, and your total cost drops to $2.25
Bahahaha... or, you could call it the 'elitist snob' cult. Anyways, my family already owns a country club, so no thanks.

its like 60bucks with greyhound return, perimeter is a ripoff, snow bus is too unless you live there, and you can get deals with a lift ticket, or buy your lift ticket at 7/11. And you need to take the 98 b-line to go downtown, not the 99.

yeah sorry, i definetly didnt pay 130. I think it was 53 bucks, i have that # in my head i thought that was too low.... i forget the website but you get airporter from the airport to the bus depot and then you go from there on greyhound. MSG Caden, he should know

Lol 2 hour drive at average of at least 60 mph gives you 120 miles at an average walk speed of about 3 mph it would only take you A MEASLY 40 HOURS. yeah just leave on a saturday and have your reservations monday through thursday. then hike back

fuck walking and 40 hours.
If you make minimum wage and worked for those 40 hours you could make over 280 bucks, spending 50 of those would mean you would save 230 by taking the bus!!!

A limousine to Whistler is cheaper than a taxi to whistler. They leave at certain times and only do that particular route, airport to whis. Even if you're alone, it's the best deal aside from Simon's hitchhiking thing.

Yeah seriously consider the hitch hiking option but if not go greyhound its pretty cheap for a return ticket. It doesn't go from the airport from memory but the company that goes direct from the airport is a lot more expensive.

I just booked my ticket. Yay for me. Gonna be there on friday night the 15th, just in time to see the superpipe finals on Saturday. I'm still trying to figure out how I'm gonna get from the airport to whistler. I'm so excited and I just can't hide it. Fuck I hope there's snow when I get there

i took a greyhound from the transit center in whistler to vancouver for like 30 dollars, check into that..cause its really reasonably priced (and about the only thing that runs later on in the night that isnt a fortune)
