TORONTO — Porter’s nonstop service to Orlando-Melbourne International Airport in Florida is back, with flights from Toronto, Ottawa and Windsor starting the week of December 19.

The service operates until April 13 with flights twice weekly from Toronto, and once per week from Ottawa and Windsor, during peak periods. All three cities will have additional roundtrip flights during March Break.

Connecting flights are available via Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport from numerous Porter destinations.

“There is significant demand from Canadians to visit Florida throughout the winter months, and we’re pleased to provide our passengers with service to the sunshine state,” said Robert Deluce, President and CEO of Porter Airlines.

“Continuing to offer nonstop service from Toronto, Windsor and Ottawa means that more people can visit Florida directly from their own communities.”

Orlando-Melbourne is 20 minutes from Port Canaveral, the world’s second largest cruise port, and 30 minutes from Kennedy Space Center. It’s also less than 10 minutes from the beach. The area’s theme parks, museums, and wildlife attractions are within an hour’s drive.
