| Shuttle from Blaine to Bellingham Airport?
You will have to excuse me as I am from Winnipeg and do not know the ins and outs of getting to Bellingham Airport from the Lower Mainland. I am in Van a few times/yr to visit my family in White Rock so I figured that I would take advantage of the deals on US flights from Bellingham. My problem is that I do not always have somebody who can drive me. I was told by several people to just cross at Peace Arch by foot and hop a shuttle or some sort of mysterious bus to Bellingham Airport. However, nobody seems to be able to confirm a name of a service.

There is a Quick Shuttle that leaves from several locations in Vancouver to Bellingham Airport. Their service fees are reasonable in my opinion.
Pickup locations are as follows: Quote:
Vancouver Hotels
Vancouver Downtown
Cambie & 12th
Cambie & 42nd
Vancouver Airport
River Rock Resort
South Surrey
| Good luck and hope that helps!

I don't think there is any pick up right across the border. Even still you would have to find a ride to wherever the pick up location is... I remember going pass the Pacific Hwy border on foot and it was quite a walk, since there's no side walks.

In addition to that, I seem to always get stuck crossing the border w/ somebody who is racially profiled more than myself! Thus, if I could get around that hickup, it would def be to my advantage.

+1 for Quick Shuttle!
I used them a few years back for my Vegas trip. We boarded at YVR and they took us directly to Seatac a little earlier than expected.
We arrived @ Seatac an hour early coming back from Vegas and the driver allowed us to board the shuttle that was about to leave. Our original shuttle was suppose to arrive 2 hours later so it was great that they let us.
I think all the buses have WiFi now so you can kill some time if you're bringing your phone/laptop. No complaints on my end.

Quick Shuttle is pretty awesome - but my only gripe is that they don't have frequent enough service. I had an international flight to Europe leaving from Sea-Tac, one of their shuttles would've gotten me to the airport an hr before my flight, which is cutting it super close - because if there was a wait at the border - or if somebody had an issue getting a visa, I would've totally been late for my flight.
So instead, I was 4 hours early for my flight. Boo.....
yay for free wifi tho!
