Pro Tip: When flying, book your seat in advance and consider choosing a flight that arrives in the morning to avoid traffic when renting your car.
For this journey, taking a flight from Sault Ste.

Once you arrive in Vancouver, renting a car will provide the flexibility needed to get to Surrey comfortably.
