FORT WORTH, Texas and TORONTO — American Airlines and Porter Airlines are
teaming up on a new codeshare partnership to give customers more ways to
travel between the U.S. and Canada. Starting today, customers can book
codeshare itineraries for flights on aa.com or
American’s mobile app, as well as on
flyporter.com.
“Canada is one of the most popular destinations for travelers, and American is
excited to partner with Porter Airlines to unlock more travel options for
customers,” said Anmol Bhargava, American’s Senior Vice President of Global
Alliances. “This partnership puts customers at the forefront, and we look
forward to providing even more seamless transborder travel options together.”
American and Porter will continue to evaluate opportunities to expand this
relationship further through expanded codeshare destinations and loyalty
benefits.
"This partnership with American Airlines provides a true competitive
alternative for passengers needing more options when flying between Canada and
the United States," said Edmond Eldebs, Senior Vice President and Chief
Commercial Officer, Porter Airlines. "By initially combining Porter’s growing
Canadian network with American’s extensive reach in the U.S. and southern
destinations, we are offering improved connectivity in combination with
Porter’s commitment to high-quality service. This is something that we are
committed to growing with additional global routing options and future
VIPorter loyalty integration."
Reach more of Canada’s coastlines and cities
American will place its code on select flights operated by Porter from Toronto
Pearson International Airport (YYZ). AAdvantage® members purchasing
a codeshare flight operated by Porter earn both AAdvantage® miles
and Loyalty Points for their travels.
American operates more flights to YYZ than any other U.S. carrier. With more
than 25 peak daily flights, travelers will have convenient options for
choosing their favorite itinerary from across the U.S. to YYZ and beyond. In
addition to domestic routes in Canada, American will also place its code on
Porter’s flights between YYZ and Phoenix (PHX), with additional transborder
flights to come.
In addition to YYZ in Canada, American offers year-round flights to Calgary
(YYC), Montreal (YUL) and Vancouver (YVR) as well as seasonal service to
Halifax (YHZ) and Quebec City (YQB). The codeshare partnership will offer
travelers more routing options to their favorite destinations or the
opportunity to explore new locales in Canada.
