Winter is around the corner, and now is the time to start planning a getaway. Orlando Melbourne International Airport (MLB) is welcoming thousands of Canadian visitors with new direct flights from Porter Airlines.
In addition to the seasonal non-stop flights from Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport (YTZ), Porter is introducing non-stop flights from Ottawa (YOW) and Windsor (YQG) airports.
The new flights commence Dec. 16, 2017, and run through March 31, 2018; the Toronto flights continue through April 7, 2018. These are among Porter’s first U.S. flights from an airport outside of its main base in Toronto. Complete schedule and booking options are now available.
Porter introduced the Orlando Melbourne route in 2015, and it has expanded annually to meet the increase in passenger demand.
“Canada is a vital tourism market to us,” said Greg Donovan, Accredited Airport Executive and airport executive director of MLB. “Canadian travel to MLB is increasing as they fall in love with our destination, and we are committed to provide them with the most technologically-advanced entry into the United States.”
“Porter has seen tremendous interest in Orlando-Melbourne since service launched two years ago,” said Robert Deluce, president and chief executive officer of Porter Airlines. “The introduction of direct, non-stop flights from Windsor and Ottawa means more travellers will experience the best that Florida has to offer with Porter’s affordable, award-winning service.”
