by Marsha Mowers
In a sure sign of its maturation, Porter is seeing its pilots and cabin crew members move to unionize.
Porter Airlines has launched a new summer seasonal route between Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ) and Greater Moncton Roméo LeBlanc International Airport (YQM) starting today.
Flights will run three times weekly through September using their Embraer E195-E2 and complements Porter’s existing service from Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport and Ottawa to Moncton.
“We continue to see strong demand for domestic travel during the summer season, and this new route between Toronto Pearson and Moncton reflects Porter’s commitment to taking travellers where they want to go,” said Andrew Pierce, vice president, network planning and reporting, Porter Airlines.
“Whether visiting friends and family or exploring these cities, passengers can count on our elevated economy experience and convenient flight options to make their journey more enjoyable.”
The flight schedule is as follows:
| Route | Departure | Arrival | Frequency |
| Toronto Pearson to Moncton | 6:40 a.m. | 9:40 a.m. | 3x weekly (Mondays, Thursdays and Saturdays) |
| Moncton to Toronto Pearson | 10:35 a.m. | 11:55 a.m. |
All times local
“As we head into a busy summer at YQM, we’re thrilled to offer even more travel options with our partner, Porter Airlines, through this new connection to Toronto Pearson. The service is operated with Porter’s Embraer E195-E2 aircraft, marking its first appearance in Moncton, and opens up greater access across Canada and to international destinations,” said Courtney Burns, President and CEO of the Greater Moncton International Airport Authority.
