YVR has sold 74 APC BorderXpress kiosks to the airport, which will enable travellers to move quickly through the US border clearance process by entering information at a touch screen self-service kiosk.

YVR president and CEO Craig Richmond said: "We’re proud to partner with the world’s busiest airport to improve the passenger experience, on a grand scale.

The new service is being offered without pre-registration or any fees to the passenger.
