March YVR stats are out, pretty poor overall.

http://www.yvr.ca/-/media/yvr/documents/facts-sheets/2019/03-march/march-traffic-update.pdf?la=en

Feeling the effects of the MAX grounding in a big way.

Overall up 2.1% to 2,132,950
Domestic up 1.4% to 1,001,618
International up 2.7% to 1,131,332

International breakdown
Transborder up 3.2%
Asia Pacific up 2.6%
Europe down 1.7%
Misc intl up 3.5%

YTD overall up 3.0% to 6.0 million
YTD Domestic up 2.6% to 2.8 million
YTD Intl up 3.3% to 3.2 million

So all in all pretty poor numbers, but with a big asterisk in the max groundings. It will be interesting to see if other Canadian airports feel a similar slowdown or if this is just more slow growth from YVR.
