Porter Airlines has announced a new flight between Deer Lake Regional Airport and Ottawa International Airport, making it the only carrier flying nonstop between the two locations.

The seasonal route starts with four weekly round-trip flights and ends in early September.

The Embraer E195-E2 aircraft used for these flights carries up to 132 passengers, and with a two-by-two configuration, there are no middle seats on any flight.

The new flights have direct connections to Toronto-City, Toronto-Pearson, Hamilton, Calgary and Edmonton. The route complements Porter’s existing Deer Lake service from Halifax and Toronto.
