Free beer and wine? No middle seats? Priority check-in and boarding?
While everyone is talking about Canada's new high-speed train, and all the Via Rail train delays due to February's record breaking winter storms, this Canadian airline is pulling out all the stops with its new route connecting Montreal and New York.
Continuing to expand its footprint in the New York area, Porter Airlines has added a new route connecting Montréal Trudeau Airport (YUL) and Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR) with lots of perks included.
Flights will be operated on Porter’s 78-seat De Havilland Dash 8-400 aircraft, with one daily roundtrip flight, increasing to two times daily for the peak summer season.
The Canadian airline has also teamed up with Café Saint-Henri, located in Montreal’s Saint-Henri neighbourhood (the Brooklyn of Montreal)—recently ranked one of the coolest neighbourhoods in the world—to bring next-level, sustainably-sourced coffee to passengers that is specially crafted to maximize flavour at altitude.
Home to some of the best restaurants in the city, a high concentration of epic nightlife spots and some of the trendiest boutiques and activities around, Saint-Henri also officially one of the coolest—winter puppy parades included.
