Porter adds lift from Ottawa, Montreal to Fort Lauderdale, Las Vegas
Porter Airlines’ growth continues with the inauguration of three new seasonal routes from Ottawa International Airport (YOW) and Montréal-Trudeau International Airport (YUL) to the United States.
Nonstop service to and from Las Vegas Harry Reid International Airport (LAS) from both Ottawa and Montréal-Trudeau begins this weekend. Porter is the only carrier operating the Ottawa – Las Vegas route.
Daily, nonstop service between Montréal and Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport (FLL) also starts this weekend. The new route is Porter’s first directly connecting Montréal and Florida.
Kevin Jackson, president, Porter Airlines, said that: “The addition of these routes builds on our commitment to expand our Eastern Canada network. Passengers in Ottawa and Montréal now have even more options to choose from when planning their winter travel, and they will receive an elevated economy experience that brings back the joy of flying.”
Flights are operated on the 132-seat Embraer E195-E2. Passengers will experience Porter’s signature elevated economy service, which includes a two-by-two seating configuration, free premium snacks, free, fast WiFi, and complimentary beer and wine served in glassware for everyone. PorterReserve fares provide an all-inclusive package with fresh, healthy meals, dedicated airport check-in, early boarding, and more legroom.
The addition of these routes connects travellers in Eastern Canada to more destinations across Porter’s network and complements the airline’s existing service between Toronto Pearson – Las Vegas and Fort Lauderdale. Connecting flights are also available to and from Ottawa and Montréal via Toronto Pearson, and globally through partner airlines.
