Nice! :D
I've flown to Montreal on multiple occasions for $106 each way. It sure as hell beats VIA rail business class for $124 and takes a fraction of the time. |

add in checking in to airport, drive from PET to downtown Mtl, you don't save that much time flying |

I'd prob still go with megabus for Mtl (last year we went for $55/person) BUT for NYC trips I think I'll def stick with Porter - I remember after EZ I was literally on my couch in 1 hour or so! 40-45 min flight, quick cab ride back to my downtown place, compared to 11 hours on the bus, amazing and worth every penny of $400 |

I know, right!!!! Wasn't that amazing?! I did the same thing for Electric Zoo this year. I will never take the bus down. |

I wish Porter flew into LGA or JFK. Such a pain to get to Newark from our place.
I don't mind taking the bus when I can get it for $1. |

I agree. But when something delays VIA, you are stuck on the train forever. I've never had just a short delay on the train and that stretch between TO and Mtl is notorious for track issues.
I like Porter a lot and usually fly with them a few times a year. However Christmas never seems to go smoothly. Once they had to fly my bags on a separate plane to pearson and they were delivered 3 days later. Another year, mechanical issues cancelled the flight and I had to stay in the halifax airport hotel (ok because I got drunk with one of the trailer park boys, but missed a day of work).
This year, there was a minor delay, but most obvious was how badly they need to build a pedestrian bridge to the island and expand the front parkade/pick up area. At this time of year it is chaos down there particularly with Air Canada flying out of the island as well. |

we flew out on Christmas eve and it was madness on the check in area - for some reason someone decided that 2 people working the US counters was enough - they had people rushing to check in 5 minutes before their flight
funny enough the bag drop off line was even worse - so totally sucked for people who checked-in online
otherwise after that it was all clear skies, we even left on time I think |
