Travellers can now fly direct from Ottawa to Thunder Bay, Boston and Newark.
Porter Airlines launched daily non-stop service from the Ottawa International Airport to the three airports on Monday as part of its broader expansion plan for the capital. Porter will offer one direct fly daily from Ottawa to Boston, and two flights daily from YOW to Thunder Bay and Ottawa to Newark."Porter Airlines continues to impress us with their commitment to Ottawa-Gatineau," Ottawa International Airport Authority president Mark Laroche said in a statement.
"No only was YOW Porter's first turboprop destination back in 2006, in February we were also first to host Porter's inaugural commercial jet service. As Porter's YOW-based hangar construction is well underway, this new air service is yet another step forward as Porter airlines embraces the National Capital Region's potential."
Porter currently operates eight non-stop routes from Ottawa International Airport. On May 17, Porter will launch direct service from Ottawa to Charlottetown.

Great! Now if they can partner up with American Airlines/One World for seamless connections and point redemptions!
Only if Porter doesn’t cancel your flight. They offered me a flight TWO DAYS after the flight they canceled at the last minute, and I had to chase them for that. Don’t fly Porter if you need to get where you’re going on time
