Porter Airlines is increasing capacity on three Halifax routes, to St. John’s, Montréal and Ottawa.

The move, which Porter says is a response to strong East Coast demand, takes effect March 31, 2024. Flights will now operate on 132-passenger E195-E2 aircraft, instead of 78-seat Dash 8-400s.

The Halifax-Ottawa route will have three daily, roundtrip flights. St. John’s and Montréal will operate with two daily roundtrips, increasing to three daily in May.

The Dash 8-400s will be redeployed to increase frequencies in other markets, with more information available soon.
