Porter Airlines Launches Flights Between Toronto and Liberia: Its First Route to Central America
Porter Airlines inaugurated its flights between Toronto Pearson International Airport and Liberia, Costa Rica. This marks its first connection with Central America, a key step in its seasonal expansion to warm-weather destinations. The company has scheduled up to six weekly frequencies and adds this link to a series of recently launched routes to Cancún, Puerto Vallarta, and Nassau.
Andrew Pierce, Vice President of Network Planning and Analysis, stated that the start of operations allows travelers to reach Guanacaste and enjoy its landscapes. He noted that the country has become a second home for many Canadian citizens, who can now begin that journey with Porter’s characteristic hospitality.
Entry into a Nature-Filled Region
Liberia serves as the gateway to the Guanacaste area. This region is known for its beaches, coastal towns, and rainforests. Visitors can explore national parks that protect unique ecosystems and habitats for many species. The announcement places Costa Rica on the airline’s destination map, aiming to attract travelers interested in experiences surrounded by biodiversity.

In-Flight Experience with the Embraer E195-E2
The flights are operated with 132-seat Embraer E195-E2 aircraft. Passengers enjoy an enhanced economy proposition that includes seats with no middle seat, beer and wine served in glassware, quality snacks, and free, fast Wi-Fi. The goal is for the journey to begin with a feeling of comfort from boarding, something the company highlights as part of its service identity.
Fare Options: PorterReserve and PorterClassic
Those who purchase the PorterReserve fare receive additional benefits such as fresh meals, priority check-in, two pieces of checked baggage, and change flexibility. Customers who prefer PorterClassic can add these elements individually according to their preferences, allowing them to tailor the experience to their needs.
VIPorter Program and Redemption for Sun Destinations
Members of the VIPorter program have the ability to redeem points to fly with both Porter and Air Transat to vacation markets. Awards start from 10,000 points per one-way trip, an attractive option for those who accumulate points throughout the year and seek to use them for getaways to tropical climates.
Expansion Also from Ottawa
The company also announced a route between Ottawa and Liberia starting December 17. Complete schedule details are available on its official website, where schedules and seat availability for the season are updated.
