Porter Airlines is significantly expanding its 2025-2026 winter schedule, increasing flights to southern sun destinations by up to 25 percent during peak travel periods and unveiling four new routes.

This includes the introduction of Porter’s first-ever transborder service from Vancouver (YVR) with a non-stop flight to Phoenix (PHX), Arizona.

Further enhancing its Ottawa (YOW) base, Porter is adding new routes to two major American Airlines hubs – Phoenix (PHX) and Miami (MIA). This strengthens cross-border connectivity and aligns with the airline’s recently-announced American Airlines codeshare partnership. These two cities are destinations in themselves, while also creating travel options across North America through connections to American’s broad network.

Adding to the sun destination portfolio, Porter will also launch its first Caribbean flight from Montreal (YUL) with new service to Nassau (NAS), expanding its presence in the Caribbean.

New routes launching this winter are:

In addition to the new routes, Porter is increasing capacity on several popular sun destinations from Hamilton, Ottawa and Toronto Pearson, including:

• Hamilton (YHM) – Fort Lauderdale (FLL)
• Ottawa (YOW) – Grand Cayman (GCM)
• Ottawa (YOW) – Liberia, Costa Rica (LIR)
• Ottawa (YOW) – Puerto Vallarta (PVR)
• Toronto Pearson (YYZ) – Cancun (CUN)
• Toronto Pearson (YYZ) – Fort Lauderdale (FLL)
• Toronto Pearson (YYZ) – Liberia, Costa Rica (LIR)

“Our updated winter schedule represents a major expansion of Porter’s network due to the strong response from customers for our new and existing sun markets. We are supporting this demand with new routes and increased frequency on existing popular destinations,” said Kevin Jackson, president, Porter Airlines. “We are committed to bringing our elevated economy experience to more travelers by connecting key gateways with sun destinations at the time of year when these trips are most valued by Canadians. This growth is about offering more choices, more convenience, and the outstanding service our passengers have come to expect from Porter.”

This growth is supported by the airline’s Embraer E195-E2 aircraft, which will operate on all routes.
