Porter Airlines is launching daily, round-trip service between Toronto-Pearson International Airport (YYZ) and Québec City Jean Lesage International Airport (YQB) starting 17MAY.
Initially planned as a seasonal addition to Porter’s schedule, the new route will run until 26OCT.
“This new service will more than double our capacity between Toronto and Québec City, and gives passengers more opportunities to choose our elevated economy experience on the route. Being able to choose flights at Billy Bishop and Pearson demonstrates the range of choice that travellers have when flying to and from Toronto, with Porter having significant presence at both airports," said Kevin Jackson, President of Porter Airlines.
The flight schedule is as follows:

“We are delighted that Porter will be offering a brand-new daily service to Toronto Pearson from Québec City Jean Lesage International Airport (YQB) this summer. The addition of this daily flight to the Canadian hub is directly in line with our objective to offer more options to travellers in the greater Québec City region, in addition to providing excellent connectivity to popular destinations in Western Canada and the United States," added Stéphane Poirier, President and CEO of Québec City Jean-Lesage International Airport.
Operated on Porter's Embraer E195-E2, the new service complements existing Porter flights between Québec City and Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport, giving passengers more options when travelling between the two destinations and many connecting options across Canada. Through Toronto Pearson, this route connects to Western Canada destinations such as Vancouver, Calgary, Edmonton and Winnipeg.
