Porter celebrates launch of YYZ-YYC flights

Porter’s three new nonstop routes will connect Montreal with Western Canada

TORONTO — Porter Airlines is boosting its east-west network with new flights between Montreal and three cities in Western Canada.

Porter is adding daily roundtrip flights on three new nonstop routes between Montréal-Pierre Elliott Trudeau International Airport (YUL) and Vancouver International Airport (YVR), Calgary International Airport (YYC) and Edmonton International Airport (YEG).

“Montreal has been an important part of Porter’s network since 2006, and our presence continues to grow. We’re building out YUL with popular destinations and strategic partnerships, so travellers can connect coast-to-coast with an unmatched elevated economy experience,” says Kevin Jackson, Porter’s EVP and Chief Commercial Officer.

The scheduled service will connect with Halifax, Toronto-Pearson, and Toronto-City through Montreal, complementing nonstop western service from Toronto-Pearson and Ottawa to each market.

Additional connections are also available through Porter’s partnership with Air Transat, including regions in North America, Europe and southern destinations.
