Porter continues to grow its network, announcing new routes to keep passengers flying high.
Hamilton Routes Launched
John C. Munro Hamilton International Airport (YHM) will see two new domestic routes. Nonstop service between Hamilton and Winnipeg (YWG) began last week, operating up to six roundtrips weekly. Hamilton - St. John’s (YYT) also launched, with daily service by late June.
“We’re emphasizing our commitment to Hamilton by giving passengers even more options when planning their travels,” said Andrew Pierce, vice president, network planning and reporting, Porter Airlines. “The addition of Winnipeg and St. John’s gives travellers the ability to choose Porter for these destinations and enjoy their flying experience the moment they step onboard our aircraft.”
Both routes are operating on the airline’s state-of-the-art, 132-seat Embraer E195-E2 aircraft, featuring a two-by-two configuration, and free, fast Wi-Fi for everyone onboard.
| Route | Departure | Arrival |
| Winnipeg to Hamilton | 6:55 p.m. | 10:09 p.m. |
| Hamilton to Winnipeg | 7:00 a.m. | 8:25 a.m. |
| St. John’s to Hamilton | 2:45 p.m. | 4:50 p.m. |
| Hamilton to St. John’s | 9:10 a.m. | 1:50 p.m. |
All times are local.
More Routes to Boston
Connectivity to Boston Logan International (BOS) is another part of Porter’s summer plans, with flights operating from Toronto Pearson (YYZ) and Montreal Trudeau (YUL) airports.
Building on existing service from Toronto City (YTZ) and Ottawa (YOW), Porter will now operate a combined eight daily flights to Boston offering access to New England as well as a wide range of connection options.
“We’re thrilled to welcome Porter Airlines’ new nonstop service to both Toronto Pearson and Montreal Trudeau,” says Ed Freni, executive director of aviation, Massport. “These routes connect Boston directly to two distinct Canadian gateways, giving passengers more flexibility in how they reach their final destination.”
The YYZ-BOS route is operated on the Embraer E195-E2, marking the debut of the aircraft at Boston Logan. As with the Hamilton routes, passengers will enjoy free, fast Wi-Fi, available across Porter's E195-E2 fleet.
| Route | Frequency | Aircraft |
| Toronto Pearson (YYZ) to Boston (BOS) | 14x weekly | Embraer E195-E2 |
| Montreal Trudeau (YUL) to Boston (BOS) | 7x weekly | De Havilland Dash 8-400
