Porter partners with Snowbird Advisor to promote U.S. flights down south

Porter Airlines has partnered with popular online resource Snowbird Advisor to promote its flights to a dozen destinations across four U.S. states this winter as it rapidly expands into snowbird territory. The schedule is highlighted by six markets in Florida alone.

“This is great news for snowbirds, bringing much needed competition to these popular Florida destinations offering snowbirds more choice on a very comfortable Embraer jet aircraft with a 2 x 2 seat configuration – that means no middle seats,” said Stephen Fine, president, Snowbird Advisor.

“The further availability of flights to Phoenix, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Palm Springs, and San Diego, are of great appeal to snowbirds.”

Porter’s sun destinations

Porter flies the new Embraer E195-E2 aircraft to Orlando, Fort Lauderdale, Miami, Tampa, Fort Myers and West Palm Beach nonstop from Toronto Pearson International Airport beginning late October and early November. Orlando and Fort Lauderdale operate year-round. 

Porter also flies from Toronto to Phoenix, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Palm Springs and San Diego this winter.

From Ottawa, Porter flies to Orlando year-round and service to Fort Lauderdale, Tampa and Fort Myers begins this fall. Service to Las Vegas begins Nov. 1. From Montreal, flights start in November to Fort Lauderdale, Fort Myers and Las Vegas. And from Halifax, nonstop flights start in early December to Tampa and Orlando.

From coast to coast

Porter now flies coast to coast and to every province in Canada from its eastern hubs of Toronto, Ottawa, Montreal and Halifax. This enables snowbirds to connect to Porter’s sun destinations from major Canadian gateways.

“Snowbird Advisor is an ideal partner to share our winter sun destinations: Florida, Arizona, Nevada and California,” said  Edmond Eldebs, Senior Vice President and Chief Commercial Officer, Porter Airlines. “Canadians love to escape the winter and with Porter, they can start enjoying their trip the moment they step onboard the aircraft.”

PorterReserve

For passengers that prefer to have all their amenities included in the fare, Porter offers PorterReserve, an all-inclusive economy experience at affordable prices.

The following is included: two pieces of checked baggage, free flight changes, premium seat selection with extra legroom at the front of the aircraft, healthy meal options, cocktails, free beer and wine, and fast, free WiFi.

Also included is dedicated check-in, early boarding and expedited security at participating airports.
