Porter Airlines is Alaska Airlines 30th Global Airline Partner
Alaska Airlines has added a new global airline partner this week, Porter Airlines. This is a growing Canadian carrier that begins its inaugural nonstop service between Toronto and both Los Angeles and San Francisco in January.
Those flights, along with connecting flights on Alaska‘s network, can be purchased now at alaskaair.com. Mileage Plan members who buy Porter flights on Alaska Airlines’ website also earn at least 100% of the miles flown and 100% elite-qualifying miles.
Porter’s new routes will link Los Angeles and San Francisco to Canada’s largest city and beyond with connections to destinations across Eastern Canada including Montreal, Ottawa and Halifax. Porter will fly its Embraer E195-E2 aircraft between California and Toronto, which is known for its quieter flying and greater fuel efficiency.
Porter is Alaska’s 30th global partner airline. Porter’s daily nonstop service between Los Angeles-Toronto begins on Jan. 16 with the airline’s operations conveniently located alongside Alaska’s gates at Terminal 6 at LAX. Porter’s San Francisco-Toronto service will launch the following week on Jan. 25.
Alaska and Porter also said they will continue to strengthen our partnership next year. Coming in 2024, Mileage Plan and VIPorter members will earn miles in their respective loyalty programs no matter where they book their flights. Next year will bring even more benefits with access to mileage redemptions with enhanced availability for both Mileage Plan and VIPorter members on each other’s airline.
