[ANALYSIS] Porter Airlines Destinations
The lack of airline competition in Canada has kept our airline prices a little more inflated than our neighbours down south. But I can’t help but think that even if there was more competition, the prices may not even change anyway. Porter Airlines may not be a major airline on a grand scale, but they do provide a great service and does add to the competition.

I understand that Porter airplanes will not stretch very far, so they will be concentrated mostly within the Toronto area vicinity. Hopefully expansion plans are in the works, because there is a larger market share to be had.
Other destinations in from the United States that are apparently being considered are: Cincinnati, Cleveland, Detroit, Pittsburgh, and Philadelphia. I believe that those would be great destinations. Get it done!
In Canada, I believe that Winnipeg is worth a look if it can be stretch that far.
