Cabin product

Porter Airlines porterreserve on the DE HAVILLAND CANADA DASH 8 400

Porter Airlines has grown from a regional Toronto Island carrier into a broader North American player, flying an all-narrowbody/turboprop fleet (no widebodies) of E195-E2 jets and Dash 8-400 turboprops from Toronto to 32 destinations. Economy includes complimentary meals for everyone; PorterReserve — the first two rows on both aircraft types — adds priority, extra space, and complimentary beer and wine. This is genuinely closer to a premium economy product than international lie-flat business class, worth setting that expectation before booking.

Verify the actual aircraft on your flight

Aircraft type is shown on your booking confirmation but operational substitutions happen — older or newer metal sometimes replaces the scheduled aircraft.

Time-of-day matters
