Porter Airlines has expanded its connectivity to Boston Logan (BOS) adding new service with the announcement of flights from Toronto Pearson (YYZ) and Montreal Trudeau (YUL).
The airline says the additions give "travellers a convenient gateway to New England and the US Northeast,” describing Boston as "one of the most visited cities in the United States."
The new routes build on the carrier's existing services from Toronto City (YTZ) and Ottawa (YOW), meaning Porter now operates a combined eight daily flights to Boston from Ontario.
The YYZ-BOS route operates twice daily on an Embraer E195-E2, marking the aircraft's debut at BOS.
YUL service is daily operating a De Havilland Dash 8-400.
“Porter has served Boston since 2009, and today's launch from Toronto Pearson and Montreal marks another new chapter in that relationship," said Andrew Pierce, vice president of network planning and reporting at Porter.
"We’re excited to bring the E195-E2 to Boston Logan for the first time, and with expanded service from two major Canadian gateways, we look forward to giving even more travellers access to Porter's elevated onboard experience.
