The introduction of this route reinforces Porter’s commitment to Canada’s Capital Region, the airline said, by offering travellers connectivity between Manitoba and Porter’s extensive network out of Ottawa.

Flights between YOW and YWG will be served by Porter’s new Embraer E195-E2 aircraft. Configured in a two-by-two seating arrangement.

The service will connect with Boston, Charlottetown, Fredericton, Halifax, Moncton, New York, Thunder Bay, Toronto-Pearson, Toronto-City and St John’s through Ottawa.
