So last week, I took a little day trip to Toronto for work and flew with the new Porter airline. For anyone not familiar with Porter, it recently opened business at the Toronto City Centre airport and is geared toward the Ottawa-Toronto business commuter and with plans to expand.
It was luxury compared to what flying is now adays on your typically commercial flight. It was a small Bombardier jet with only 2 leather seats across. Despite the short flight, they served a small meal with real glasses!! And real food!! like yogurt & granola, cheese & crackers, chocolate, sandwiches on real whole grain bread, and free wine and beer!!! I was impressed. Bonus: no crying children or cranky airline attendants.
I am one of those people who misses meals even on Air Canada flights - I mean, sure it was kinda gross, but there was a certain standard of service and that standard is severely and sadly lacking now. Porter brings back that romance of flying, even in just a 60 minute flight.
