Good news for Freddy and SJ. The Porter service is quite popular here in Moncton. Anytime i'm flying just to Toronto (and not onward), I
always fly Porter - good service and free booze. It's also a cinch getting downtown from Billy Bishop too (free shuttle). The only downside is the pit stop in Ottawa, but that's not much of a hardship really.
I've always been impressed just how many of the Porter passengers from Moncton actually are flying to Ottawa as their terminal destination rather than Toronto (about half), especially since there's also an AC flight to Ottawa as well.........
