Porter Airlines is launching seasonal
service to
Burlington, Vermont, this winter, expanding its U.S. network
and adding a new destination for passengers looking to enjoy a season
on the ski hills.
With twice-weekly roundtrip flights from Billy Bishop Toronto City
Airport to
Burlington International Airport beginning on
Dec. 15 until
April 8, passengers can enjoy easy access to some of
Vermont's best
skiing and a rich assortment of local attractions.
"Our new service to
Vermont is a perfect complement to our current
winter schedule already featuring prime destinations such as
Mont
Tremblant and
Quebec City," said
Robert Deluce, president and CEO of
Porter Airlines. "
Burlington offers access to an incredible array of
spectacular ski hills, and a vibrant community to explore."
The
Burlington schedule includes weekly roundtrips on Thursdays and
Sundays, with the exception of long weekends which offer Thursday and
Monday roundtrip options. One-way fares start as low as
$99, plus
applicable fees and taxes.
"This is a great partnership that will boost tourism in
Vermont and
provide an economic boost to our ski areas," said
Vermont Governor
Peter Shumlin.
Special Porter ski packages from Stowe Mountain Resort,
Jay Peak,
Smugglers Notch and Sugarbush will be offered at the Ski, Snowboard &
Travel show in
Toronto,
October 13-16, and at
www.skivermont.com in the coming week.
