The Toronto-Vancouver air route is getting more crowded.
Canada Jetlines, Canada’s new leisure airline, today confirmed the inaugural flight for its new, nonstop service out of its travel hub at Toronto Pearson to Vancouver International Airport.
Porter Airlines on Thursday revealed that it will begin flying between Toronto and Vancouver on Feb. 7, 2023. Porter said it plans to have three flights a day by March 21 of next year.
Canada Jetlines will commence direct roundtrip Airbus A320 service from Toronto to Vancouver, with the inaugural flight event taking place both at the Toronto departure and Vancouver arrival gates today, December 9, 2022. Members of the Canada Jetlines executive team will be in attendance, including President and CEO, Eddy Doyle and CCO, Duncan Bureau CCO, as well as executives from the Toronto Pearson and Vancouver International Airport teams.
“The new route will provide a convenient schedule for leisure travel, creating more accessible flight options within Canada and connecting the lower mainland and southern Ontario,” officials said.
“We look forward to expanding our services into Vancouver ahead of the upcoming holiday travel season,” said Eddy Doyle, President and CEO, Canada Jetlines. “As Canada Jetlines aims to provide travellers with more options, we’re excited to bring the country’s newest leisure airline to Vancouver.”
