Travelers now have a direct path to the bright charms of South Florida thanks to Porter Airlines’ nonstop flights from Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ) to Palm Beach International Airport (PBI). On Thursday, the new service went live. According to the Palm Beach County official website, Laura Beebe, Director of Airports for Palm Beach County, was excited about the new service, pointing out that it might improve travel convenience and broaden PBI’s global reach.
In addition to providing passengers with a beach getaway, the new daily flights provide Porter’s well-known “elevated economy experience,” which does away with the middle seat. The Palm Beaches are a great addition to Porter’s route network, according to Kevin Jackson, President of Porter Airlines, who also mentioned Florida’s growing appeal to their customers. According to the airline’s timetable, flights leave Toronto at 2:25 p.m., arrive in Palm Beach by 5:35 p.m., turn around for the return trip at 6:35 p.m., and return to Toronto at 9:50 p.m. All times are local.
The new route serves as a gateway for cultural exchange and seasonal tourism in addition to connecting cities. The direct flight strengthens links with Canada, a vital foreign market, by making it easier for Canadians to travel to and enjoy the 39 distinctive communities and towns in the Palm Beaches, according to Milton Segarra, President and CEO of Discover The Palm Beaches. The Palm Beach County newsroom recorded Segarra’s comments in a statement.
According to the 2022 FDOT Florida Statewide Aviation Economic Impact Study, Palm Beach International Airport (PBI), which was recently named the fifth-best airport in the United States by the 2024 Cond Nast Readers’ Choice Awards, is a major travel hub and a major contributor to the economy of South Florida, bringing in over $4.6 billion annually. By adding Porter Airlines’ nonstop service, PBI, which serves over eight million passengers annually, enhances its market share in the commercial aviation industry and solidifies its standing as South Florida’s award-winning gateway.
