A new partnership between Porter Airlines and Pascan Aviation will improve access to air travel across Eastern Canada, taking advantage of Porter’s growing North American network and Pascan’s Québec and Maritimes-focused regional flights. Primary connecting airports are in Halifax and Québec City, with other hubs serving as secondary options.

The carriers say more than 90 connecting routes available, linking eight Pascan destinations across Canada’s eastern provinces with Porter flights to points across North America.

The new interline partnership will allow year-round connections on cross-continental routes like Vancouver – Sydney, NS, and Orlando, Fla.-Saint John, NB, plus more connectivity in Eastern Canada with routes like Sault Ste. Marie, Ont.- Bonaventure, Que., and Gaspe, Que.- Timmins, Ont.

The agreement is the first step toward making even more travel options available for Porter and Pascan passengers as the forthcoming opening of the new terminal at Montréal Metropolitan Airport will further improve connections for travellers, with Porter to operate a substantial schedule alongside Pascan from the convenient airport on Montréal’s South Shore.

“Porter’s new partnership with Pascan means improved service and more choices for passengers across North America who travel through regional Eastern Canada,” said Edmond Eldebs, Sr. VP, Porter Airlines. “The upcoming opening of the new terminal at Montréal Metropolitan Airport, which Porter and Pascan will both operate flights from, will further grow this partnership and provide opportunities for travellers to connect seamlessly across the continent.”

“This partnership along with the opening of the new terminal is truly amazing. We have been waiting for this kind of project here at the Montréal Metropolitan Airport since 2004,” said Yani Gagnon, co-owner at Pascan Aviation. “This will open up a whole new range of opportunities that will greatly benefit our mutual clientele.”
