These new routes are part of the airline's larger expansion efforts in Ottawa, which include the construction of new maintenance hangars at the airport, intended to service Porter's E195-E2 fleet.
As the only carrier offering daily, year-round direct flights from Ottawa to Boston and Thunder Bay, Porter is filling a unique niche in the market.
Utilizing 78-seat De Havilland Dash 8-400 aircraft, travelers on these new routes will enjoy the airline's renowned hospitality, premium onboard services, and complimentary beer and wine served in glassware.
In addition to the non-stop flights, several one-stop connecting routes have been established. Porter now operates eight non-stop routes from Ottawa International Airport, with plans to add Charlottetown as the ninth destination on May 17th.
