Its about time.

I remember the first time I took the airport rail link and arrive at the connection with the skytrain.

Pulling my large suitcase behind me I was looking for an elevator only to find out that I had to go down several stairs to the road, cross a busy road, and go up on the other side to reach the skytrain platform.

Since then they at least connected the airport rail link and skytrain and now finally they figured out that people do not like carrying 25kg suitcases down several stairs...
