Quebecers will have an easier way to get to New York City with the announcement that Porter Airlines is adding a Montreal (YUL) to Newark (EWR) starting June 1.
The new route will start with one daily roundtrip flight and increase to two times daily for the peak summer season.
“Newark Airport has been a key part of Porter’s network since the launch of our Billy Bishop – Newark service in 2008,” Andrew Pierce, VP, Networking Planning and Reporting, Porter Airlines.
“Adding a nonstop route from Montréal will make the New York area even more accessible for our passengers, giving them more options to choose from when planning their trips to the Empire State.”
Flights will be operated on Porter’s 78-seat De Havilland Dash 8-400 aircraft.
This route expands Porter’s presence at Newark, joining the airline’s existing service to Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport (YTZ) and Ottawa International Airport (YOW). The Newark route also complements a new Toronto Pearson – LaGuardia route starting this spring. A number of connections to Porter’s domestic network are available via Montréal, including Vancouver, Calgary, Edmonton, and Halifax. In addition, these new flights are timed to enable connections to our partner Air Transat’s European network beyond Montréal.
