Executive Remarks


Kevin Jackson, president, of Porter Airlines said,


“Florida has quickly grown to be one of Porter’s most popular U.S. markets. Passengers appreciate having more options when planning their winter getaways and the elevated onboard experience means their vacation begins the moment they step onboard.

Laura Beebe, director of airports, at Palm Beach County, stated,
 

“On behalf of Palm Beach International Airport, we're thrilled to welcome Porter Airlines with nonstop service between Toronto and Palm Beach International Airport. The new service will strengthen our connection to one of North America's most vibrant cities, enhancing travel convenience and options for our passengers. We look forward to a successful partnership with Porter Airlines as we continue to expand our international offerings and provide even greater accessibility to South Florida."

 

Sylvia Cesaratto, Consul General of Canada to Florida, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands added, "The longstanding friendship between Canada and the United States is exemplified every year by the almost 4 million Canadian visitors to Florida annually. Porter's announcement of new routes between Canada and the Sunshine State, including today's inaugural flight between Toronto and West Palm Beach, will help travelers on both sides of the border to experience the beauty of both countries and strengthen the already deep economic bonds between us.”

"This new direct route from Canada makes it easier than ever for Canadians to experience the beauty of The Palm Beaches’ collection – comprised of 39 enchanting cities and towns. It enhances connectivity with our largest international market and will help boost Canadian tourism for the season. Together with our airline partners, we will provide an enhanced travel experience to new and returning travelers with unforgettable experiences in The Palm Beaches - Florida’s most stylish vacation destination.”
