internet Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 I didn't see a press release.... But I see three daily on Encore from YYZ, starting next spring.And the cycle of rapid falling fares - especially last minute - begins on another market. And I suspect there's a list of half a dozen more WS has lined up.Porter - can't be good news Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vikingwarrior Posted July 21, 2015 Share Posted July 21, 2015 This likely is going to hurt Porters yields on this route significantly enough....forget those$800 walk up fares. DT via UPX to YYZ>>BOS vs. UBER to YTZ>>BOS Almost sounds like another article needed on who would get there first..> http://www.thestar.com/business/2015/07/20/westjet-to-launch-regional-toronto-boston-service.html BTW- The picture can't be but a poke at Porter-funny!

It did not paint a pretty picture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
