Porter Airlines has launched its summer schedule at Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ).

The launch schedule also provides additional flexibility when travelling between YYZ and Ottawa, Montreal, Halifax, Vancouver, Edmonton and Calgary.

The new schedule comes into effect on 1 June, adding more desirable flight times that are well-distributed throughout the day. A greater number of coast-to-coast connecting flight options via Porter’s YYZ hub are also created with this new schedule.

From August 2023, five daily round-trip flights will take place between Toronto Pearson and Vancouver. Four flights will depart for Montreal, with three going to Ottawa, Edmonton and Calgary. Two will go to Halifax.

These routes will be served by the newly acquired E195-E2 jets and form part of Porter’s expansion across North America with these new, fuel-efficient aircraft.

“Porter is known to provide high-frequency, daily service on its core routes. Consistent with this approach, we’re continuing our planned growth at Toronto Pearson and investing to provide passengers with the travel options they value,” said Kevin Jackson, Executive Vice President and Chief Commercial Officer, Porter Airlines.
