Porter Airlines has expanded its winter flight schedule with 22 new routes serving sun destinations, boosting its warm-weather seat capacity by 75% compared to the previous year, according to a report by deeparrival.com.
The Canadian carrier expects to carry more than 200,000 passengers on these routes during the winter season. The expansion introduces five new southern destinations to Porter's network: Montego Bay in Jamaica, San José in Costa Rica, Los Cabos in Mexico, Oranjestad in Aruba, and Providenciales in Turks and Caicos.
London International Airport in Ontario and Edmonton International Airport are among the locations gaining significant new flight options. From London, Porter is launching four seasonal routes: Fort Lauderdale on Nov. 18, 2026; Orlando on Nov. 19, 2026; Cancún on Dec. 17, 2026; and Montego Bay on Dec. 18, 2026. On peak schedules, London flights operate four times weekly to Fort Lauderdale, three times to Orlando, four times to Cancún, and twice to Montego Bay. Porter has also indicated plans to establish a year-round domestic network out of London starting in summer 2027.
From Edmonton, Porter has initiated flights to Puerto Vallarta and Los Cabos—marking its first international non-stop destinations from Western Canada—along with service to Phoenix and Las Vegas.
"Our expanded winter schedule reflects the strong demand we've seen from Canadian travellers," said Andrew Pierce, Porter's vice president of network planning and reporting, in a announcement released on Nov. 12, 2026.
Porter operates these winter routes using Embraer E195-E2 jets, which feature 132 seats in a two-by-two layout without middle seats. The aircraft operate across the carrier's network from airports including Toronto Pearson, Ottawa, Montreal, and Halifax. Onboard amenities include complimentary premium snacks, free beer and wine served in glassware, and free Wi-Fi, with fresh meals included for PorterReserve passengers and available for purchase in PorterClassic.
