Porter Airlines was selected as Best Regional Airline in North America at the 2024 Skytrax World Airline Awards. The category includes airlines that primarily or exclusively fly within North America.

This prestigious award speaks to the unwavering commitment from our team members to provide this for all of our passengers.”
