YVR-Airport is an elevated station on the Canada Line of Metro Vancouver's SkyTrain rapid transit system. The station is located at Vancouver International Airport's main terminal in Richmond, British Columbia, and is one of the southern terminuses of the Canada Line, the other being Richmond-Brighouse.

The Vancouver International Airport Authority contributed up to $300 million toward the airport branch of the Canada Line, which includes YVR-Airport. Like Richmond-Brighouse station, YVR-Airport only has a single track. However, this is sufficient for a terminus station with YVR-Airport's frequency of service.
