Airport Shuttle Information

Pick up and drop off at the Kelowna International Airport only, no other stops are permitted. Pets are not permitted, with the exception of registered service dogs.

We cannot confirm the type of shuttle that you will be on until 7 days prior to your travel dates. The type of vehicle may be the Big White Shuttle Van, a 29, 47, or 56 seat passenger bus (these buses are contracted by Big White Central Reservations Transport Department), or a taxi. The difference in shuttles is dependent on the number of people and the time that the shuttle has been booked.

Guests may transfer from shuttles, large buses, or taxis to our on-mountain vehicle fleet, which is better suited to ski resort conditions, for transportation to and from Mountain Check-In.

Flight Changes & Delays

If your flight is delayed, or cancelled and rescheduled and you miss your pre-booked shuttle, please notify us as soon as possible, and we will add you to the next available existing shuttle. Please note at times flights are delayed which may result in the delay of your shuttle as not all guests are arriving on the same flight.

Departure Communication

Guests will be contacted the evening prior to departure to confirm their pick up time direct from their accommodation. this ensures all passengers arrive at Mountain Check-In in time for their scheduled departure time.
