Porter Airlines adds another Sudbury flight

Porter Airlines will add a fourth daily flight between Toronto and Sudbury as of Jan. 16.

The new flight will arrive at the Sudbury Airport from the Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport at 9:30 a.m.

“By meeting passenger needs with convenient schedules and increased service, we’re continuing to demonstrate our commitment to Sudbury as a valued part of the Porter network,” Robert Deluce, president and CEO of Porter Airlines, said in a press release.

“The overwhelmingly positive response we’re seeing from travellers is a clear indication that we’re offering a desirable service within the market.”

“The additional service is testament to the strong support our community has shown Porter Airlines and the commitment by Porter to provide comprehensive service to
northern Ontario regional markets,” Bob Johnston, chief executive officer of the Greater Sudbury Airport, said.

“We are delighted that the implementation of this latest flight will facilitate same day travel to Sudbury from Toronto and other cities within their network.”

Weekend service will also increase, with a second Saturday round trip available as of Jan. 21, and the addition of a third Sunday round trip starting April 22.
