Porter Airlines

Return flight from Ottawa to Toronto. The lounges at both airports are a nice touch with high quality snacks and gourmet coffee. Outbound we got offered the same snacks as served in the lounge with our beverages. Complimentary wine was served in a real glass. Returning (same time of day) we got a lunch box with a half sandwich and cheese and crackers. I would still prefer to fly in a jet than a Dash 8. They claim it to be quiet but its really only quiet compared to other propeller planes. All in all nice service and a good product. But really 20 years ago all the airlines offered a snack lunch free drinks and in a jet. The Toronto Island Airport is a great location but it will be nice when there are some facilities before security to allow people to visit before going through security. One concern is that with the amount of overwater flying Porter undertakes using this airport on Lake Ontario (and now they fly to Newfoundland too) I would have thought that the seat cushions would at least double as flotation devices.
