The main airports in Western Canada
Many major European cities offer direct flights to Calgary and Vancouver year-round.
Authentik advice: Take a shuttle or taxi to get from the airport to your downtown hotel: it will cost less than renting a car + parking ($20 to $25 per day) and avoid the stress of driving in a strange city.
