In addition to our delivery program, CareVacations' commitment to servicing all areas of the region starts with our convenient pick-up and drop-off area at our new and improved kiosk at Canada Place Pier in Vancouver, B.C., extends in to some of the most remote areas of Alaska and the Yukon, and every possible point in between.
