Porter Airlines expands Las Vegas service with new service to Ottawa and Montreal.
Porter Airlines said on Tuesday that it is offering two new winter seasonal routes that will connect Eastern Canada to the vibrant city of Las Vegas, catering to increased demand for travel to the world’s premier entertainment destination.
Starting Nov. 1, Porter will operate nonstop service between Ottawa International Airport (YOW) and Las Vegas Harry Reid International Airport (LAS) four times weekly. Las Vegas-Montréal-Trudeau (YUL) service begins on Nov. 2, with flights operating three times weekly, the company said.
Kevin Jackson, president, Porter Airlines, commented, “We are continuing to provide passengers in Ottawa and Montréal with convenient and comfortable travel options. These new routes to Las Vegas reflect our commitment to meeting passenger demand and offering superior service across our expanding network.”
Joel Tkach, Vice President, Business Development and Marketing, Ottawa International Airport Authority, said, “We’re betting that Ottawa-Gatineau travellers will be all-in on Las Vegas! It’s a jackpot for YOW that Porter is once again expanding its network from Ottawa – now stretching to the Western U.S. More locations and options for flying refined is more good news for our community.”
Karl Brochu, Vice President, Airport Operations and Air Services Development at Aéroports de Montréal, said that “ADM Aéroports de Montréal is delighted by the addition of Las Vegas to the destinations offered by Porter from YUL. This is a new gateway to Nevada: concerts, shows and great restaurants are all excellent reasons to head for the entertainment capital of the world. We are pleased to support Porter in expanding its Montreal service offering to meet the needs of a wide range of travellers.”
Porter will be the only carrier operating the Ottawa-Las Vegas route, and PorterReserve fares offer fresh, healthy meals, pre-mixed cocktails, dedicated airport check-in, early boarding, enhanced legroom, two checked bags, and the ability to change flights without a fee, Porter said in a comment.
Connections are available through Porter and its partner network. This includes Alaska Airlines flights for travel across the Western U.S. via LAS, while Porter’s extensive Eastern Canada network provides multiple options through YOW and YUL. Transatlantic itineraries are also available with Air Transat via YUL.
The announcement came three days after the company launched two new seasonal, nonstop routes connecting Montréal-Trudeau International Airport (YUL) with Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) and San Francisco International Airport (SFO).
The YUL-LAX route offers four-times weekly service beginning June 27, while the YUL-SFO route operates three-times weekly starting June 28.
According to the report, passengers on these new routes will enjoy Porter’s signature service, which includes complimentary premium snacks, free beer and wine served in glassware, and free, fast WiFi for all passengers.
