Porter Airlines Inaugurates Nonstop Montréal-Newark Service

New route is the airline’s fourth nonstop service to New York area

TORONTO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Porter Airlines is expanding its New York network with the inauguration of non-stop service between Montréal Trudeau International Airport (YUL) and Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR) on June

Daily flights will now operate year-round based on strong demand seen for the summer schedule. This is the third nonstop route to Newark offered by the airline, joining Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport (YTZ) and Ottawa (YOW). Porter recently launched a fourth route to the New York area with daily nonstop Toronto Pearson (YYZ) to LaGuardia service.
