Now that the Transportation Plan for the 2010 Winter Olympics has been released there is a lot more clarity around what is possible and what is not. A couple things are clear: travel patterns will change, use public transit, leave early, get to the airport well in advance of your flight. The basic message from the organizers has always been “know before you go” and that has not changed. There are many maps and security grids available if you are interested.
Ultimately what comes across loud and clear is that guests and residents are best to adjust the way that they travel toward “shared” transport options. At Transportation Whistler we have worked hard to provide options that work. We understand that the Games are a different animal and that we will have to adjust. For small groups and individuals traveling to Whistler our shared Whistler Shuttle service is only $35.00/way and is purely a Games time shuttle service. We live in Whistler and so we understand pickup and dropoff in the village. Supplementing the Vancouver to Whistler Whistler Shuttle are some great group bus options. If you have 10 to 20 people we have private minibuses and we can get you right to your destination without any confusion or inconvenience. Our buses, minibuses and limos will have access to Whistler during the Games because we are Whistler based and we have parking!
There are still options available for individual and group transportation to Whistler during the Olympic Games and we can help you!
