Hamilton International Airport

I am also hearing that Air Transat maybe doing europe this summer from YHM. They will have to do something with all of the aircraft they are pulling from the US. It looks like Porter will now be doing all of Air Transat flights to Florida on a code share. When you go to Air Transat site it will give you a Porter flight for the states.

Better announce soon!
Very curious where they'll attempt to fly to. I'm also shocked they are considering YHM when they have a fortress in Quebec and YYZ.

The airport needs to continue to heavily advertise new and existing routes from YHM.

First get the routes then do the advertising...

I hope this is a sign on how well the summer sales out of YHM are going.

I was looking for a flight to St. John's NL (YYT) for this summer out of YHM and I noticed that porter is now flying 7 times a week to YYT up from 5. So, I checked the other destinations and found that Winnipeg (YWG) is now 6 days up from 4. Also, they are showing Dear Lake (YDF) as a connecting flight out of YHM through Halifax (YHZ). This is new.

So, I guess that JakeLRS is going to have to make an updated schedule!

Will certainly have to.

Will wait to see if these Air Transat rumours come to light

I see Porter is upping the upping the marketing with the build of The Porter Hangar down at the Hamilton Stadium. (when will it become Porter Field).

There's absolutely no reason for Transat to run anything across the pond this summer from YHM unless they've reached full capacity at YYZ or it is a block seat deal for another entity. Normally stuff like this is planned almost a year in advance so I wouldn't anticipate a Summer 26 program without it have been already announced for ticket sales.

Transat has a wickedly robust summer program so there's no worry about them finding work for their tails. Porter on the other hand still suffers from anemic utilization and that will eventually kill them unless the fleet is pared down or all the birds currently rostered see more flying.
