Rail avoids traffic and parking, but the family must move all luggage through the station and onward to the final address.
Direct travel can reduce handling. Confirm current child-restraint requirements and provider policies rather than assuming a seat will be supplied.
Advance booking allows the family to discuss vehicle size and special requirements before landing.
Cruise luggage can make a larger vehicle or fewer transfers more valuable.
For a resort trip, add winter clothing, ski equipment and the longer journey to the vehicle calculation.
Canada Line can still be excellent for families when the destination is convenient and luggage is manageable. Door-to-door options become more attractive as the number of bags, children and transfers increases. Ask transportation providers directly about child-seat policies and availability before booking.
Family airport travel is often less about the fare and more about reducing difficult transfers while managing children, suitcases, strollers and the final hotel or cruise connection.
