Porter Airlines, a renowned name in the aviation sector, has announced the addition of two major western U.S. destinations to its flight roster. Starting in 2024, the airline will commence daily roundtrip services connecting Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) and San Francisco International Airport (SFO) with Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ).
The Embraer E195-E2 aircraft will serve these new routes, which boasts a 132-seat, all-economy configuration. Notably, passengers will not have to contend with middle seats on these flights, ensuring a comfortable journey.
Porter Airlines is not just offering a seat but promising an elevated economy experience. Passengers can expect free, high-speed WiFi, allowing them to stream content or stay connected throughout their flight. Onboard, they will be treated to a selection of premium snacks, complimentary beer and wine served in glassware, and the option to purchase fresh, healthy meals. Those opting for the PorterReserve fares will enjoy all-inclusive amenities, including extra legroom seats and premium pre-mixed cocktails.
The Embraer E195-E2 aircraft stands out for its environmental credentials. It is recognized as the most eco-friendly single-aisle aircraft, offering up to 25% more fuel efficiency and 65% quieter than its predecessors. This aligns with Porter's commitment to sustainability, as evidenced by their efforts to reduce single-use plastics onboard and use biodegradable cups, cutlery, and eco-friendly packaging.
