PORTER EXPANDS PASS PROGRAM

Porter Airlines is expanding its Porter Pass program to reflect its growing North America network with new options making it simpler to customize, plan, and enjoy economy air travel. The pass gives frequent travellers on particular routes or within regions a simple and cost-effective way to purchase up to 100 flight credits at a set price, for travel over the course of one year.

Six new and expanded Porter Passes are now available to passengers, based primarily from the Eastern Canada Triangle of Toronto (Billy Bishop and Pearson), Ottawa and Montreal. New and expanded Passes include:

  • Western Canada Triangle to six Porter destinations across four western provinces: Calgary, Edmonton, Saskatoon, Vancouver, Victoria, and Winnipeg
  • Florida Triangle to five Porter destinations in the Sunshine State: Fort Lauderdale, Fort Myers, Miami, Orlando, and Tampa
  • Western US Triangle to three Porter destinations in the U.S.: Las Vegas, Los Angeles, and San Francisco
  • Northeast US Triangle to four Porter destinations in Northeast U.S.: Boston, Chicago, New York-Newark, Washington D.C.
  • Everywhere (Canada) for travel between Porter’s 21 Canadian destinations
  • Everywhere (North America) for travel between Porter’s 33 North American destinations

The new passes complement 12 existing Porter Pass options, which include the Triangle Commuter (Toronto-Ottawa/Montréal); Toronto-New York City; Triangle Atlantic Canada (Toronto, Ottawa and/or Montréal – six Atlantic destinations).

Passengers can also take advantage of Porter’s all-inclusive elevated economy experience with the PorterReserve Porter Pass. Along with PorterClassic inclusions like free beer and wine, no middle seats, and fast and free WiFi on all Embraer E195-E2 routes, PorterReserve passengers enjoy priority check-in, ticketing flexibility and extra legroom seats. Premium pre-mixed cocktails, and fresh, healthy meals are also standard on longer routes.

“Porter is now an airline that stretches from coast to coast across North America, with more passengers than ever choosing our elevated economy experience,” said Porter executive Edmond Eldebs. “Our improved Porter Pass program gives frequent travellers great value with the opportunity to lock in a special fare for a 12-month period and customize their experience to make flying work for them.”

Updates to Porter’s online booking portal also make it easier for passengers to purchase and redeem Porter Pass flight credits. Using Uplift, passengers can now purchase a Porter Pass in installments with financing options available.

Passengers can purchase 10, 20, 50 or 100 flight credits at once for a fixed price. Packages of 20 or more are transferable among individuals for ultimate flexibility.
