Porter Airlines Adds Two California Flights from Montreal
by Daniel McCarthy
Porter has shaken up the market with its economy experience.
Porter Airlines is adding two new non-stops to its summer schedule.
Porter will fly from Montréal-Trudeau International Airport (YUL) to Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) and San Francisco International Airport (SFO) starting on June 27 and 28, respectively. Porter will operate the Los Angeles service four times weekly and the San Francisco service through times weekly through Oct. 26.
Porter will fly both of the services on a 132-seat Embraer E195-E2 aircraft, which offers a two-by-two configuration onboard (no middle seats).
“Passengers can now more easily travel across the continent in style with Porter’s unmatched elevated economy experience. These Montréal routes connect to destinations across the globe with Porter’s strategic partnerships, providing more options that travelers crave,” Kevin Jackson, president, of Porter Airlines said in the announcement this week.
The additions continue Porter’s focus on the U.S.’s west coast—Porter also recently announced new flights from Toronto Pearson to San Francisco and Los Angeles. The airline is also full steam ahead with its Alaska Airlines partnership, which allows advisors to sell combined itineraries, giving Porter guests access to Alaska Airlines cities that it doesn’t currently serve.
