Porter Airlines

Porter Airlines will serve the only non-stop flight from Ottawa to St. John’s, NL. Daily roundtrip service operated by the Embraer E-195-E2 starts 06JUN

A Porter hub, Ottawa offers connecting flights from St. John’s to over a dozen destinations in Canada and the U.S.

Porter is also introducing flights to Deer Lake from YHZ on 04JUN.

“We are thrilled that Porter is addressing a key gap in our market by adding a non-stop route from YYT to Ottawa. Connecting our provincial and national capitals provides a welcome option for passengers.  We thank Porter for their continued investment and partnership," added Dennis Hogan, Chief Executive Officer of the St. John’s International Airport Authority.

“Like Halifax, Fredericton, Moncton, and Charlottetown, Porter Airlines' new YOW-St. John's service demonstrates the carrier's success in linking Atlantic Canada to the National Capital Region. YOW also serves as an excellent facility for through traffic destined for points beyond, including Western Canada and the USA. Operating this formerly underserved route represents another accomplishment for Porter, further enhancing its presence at YOW," commented Mark Larroche, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Ottawa International Airport Authority.

Deer Lake is the newest pin on the Porter map, with daily roundtrip service connecting the Newfoundland summer destination with Halifax as of 04JUN.

Halifax-Deer Lake will be served by the 78-seat De Havilland Dash 8-400.
