Airlines
Named after its parent company Porter Holdings, Porter Airlines offers regional service from the city of Toronto to Ottawa and Montreal. This Porter Airline flies out of the Toronto City Centre Airport rather than the Toronto Pearson International Airport. This different location offers Porter Airlines customers another alternative than flying out of a busy global airport.

What makes Porter Airlines unique is that people who fly the airline have to ride a ferry to get to the Toronto City Centre Airport! Plans to build a bridge to get to the island were scrapped. Their mascot on these sleek turbo prop planes is a hip raccoon named Mr. Porter.

When people fly Porter, these airways provide several amenities that you would not expect from such a small enterprise in comparison to other carriers in the area. For instance, in the Porter Airlines Toronto location, they built a new passenger lounge which is very comfortable. In addition, they have free wireless internet, beverages and snacks that are complimentary to passengers and also little business center areas for those busy executives who need to stay in touch with their job.

The Porter Airline Toronto-Ottawa route is the most popular for the airline. Right now, Porter Airlines flies ten weekday flights round trip between the two locations. Montreal was added to the daily rotation. Now Porter Airlines also flies into there about nine times per day. Soon, they will add a few more destinations including one or two United States locations.

With the introduction of Porter Airlines at the redesigned Toronto city Centre Airport, they created several hundred jobs which greatly influence the area. Not even open a year; Porter Airlines is enjoying great success with its limited domestic service. As they expand, it is almost a given that they will continue to grow not only in size (in regards to their fleet) but also in loyal customers.

The airport is convenient to many people who live in the Toronto area. Because you have to use the ferry to get to the airport to fly Porter Airlines, there is less car traffic and confusion. This is definitely helpful so you don’t have to be diligent in traffic and so forth trying to even get to the airport. While there is some parking at the airport, it is limited. Therefore, anyone who plans to fly Porter Airlines should get to the airport by public transportation like the bus or a taxi.
