Porter Launches First International Flight from Hamilton

Porter has expanded its network from John C. Munro Hamilton International Airport (YHM) with the launch of international service to Florida and Mexico.

Flights to Orlando (MCO) and Fort Lauderdale (FLL), took off on 12 and 13DEC, respectively, with a three times weekly frequency.

Later this month, inaugural flights from Hamilton to Mexico are departing. Cancun (CUN) begins 17DEC, with up to four weekly flights, and Puerto Vallarta (PVR) begins 18DEC, with two weekly flights.

The flights are all operated on Porter’s 132-seat Embraer E195-E2 aircraft, featuring a two-by-two seating configuration and free, fast WiFi for everyone. All passengers are provided with complimentary beer and wine served in real glassware, and free premium snacks. Fresh and healthy meals are also included with PorterReserve fares, or available for purchase with PorterClassic fares.

“The introduction of these four new routes at YHM deepens our commitment to the Greater Hamilton region. In less than six months, we’re giving travellers even more options to fly with Porter from their home airport - whether it’s across Canada, or to sunny southern destinations - while enjoying an elevated economy onboard experience that stands out across North America,” said Andrew Pierce, vice president, network planning and reporting, Porter Airlines.

Porter first introduced service out of Hamilton in June, operating four domestic routes to Calgary, Edmonton, Halifax and Vancouver. These destinations continue to be served year-round.

Available routes operating out of Hamilton are as follows:
