Well this sucks.
Nothing against Porter itself, I haven't actually flown with them. From friends that have they have great things to say (unless there's IRROPS then apparently they're a gong show).
I do love Billy Bishop Airport, but Porter is going to be the new preferred airline of Aeroplan?
Living on Cape Breton Island, Porter doesn't fly here. So what do I do with my miles? Drive to Halifax? For what, a flight to Toronto? With a stop over in Montreal? On a Q400?
That sound awful.
I can't imagine how angry you folks in Alberta must be reading this news. Going from a national airline who flies international with a huge Star Alliance network to, "We fly in some of North Eastern North America on an exclusive Q400 fleet" Porter.
