TORONTO — Porter Airlines’ coast-to-coast network now includes Victoria, B.C., thanks to new daily flights between Toronto Pearson Airport and YYJ.

Using its new 132-seat Embraer E195-E2 aircraft, Porter’s newest route took flight yesterday. Out of Toronto, flights depart at 10:55 a.m. and arrive in Victoria at 1:04 p.m. On the return leg, flights depart Victoria at 2 p.m. and touch down in Toronto at 9:31 p.m.

“Victoria is proving to be among our most popular new markets,” said Kevin Jackson, Executive VP and Chief Commercial Officer, Porter Airlines. “We are now truly connecting Canada’s major cities from the west with Victoria to the east in St. John’s, with many points in between. There are numerous other destinations that we intend to serve across North America as additional aircraft are delivered to us through 2024.”

Connecting flights with Ottawa, Montreal, Halifax and St. John’s are also available.
