Flying redefined with Porter Airlines

This week we showcase Porter Airlines, who have radically altered travel options between Montreal and Toronto. Enjoy state-of-the-art Bombadier Q400 aircraft and the new ultra modern passenger lounge at Toronto City Centre Airport. Plus they will fly Montreal to Halifax this summer starting June 29, 2007.

I had the opportunity to fly Porter Airlines recently. My flights surpassed expectations: this is flying as it should be. Porter has streamlined the travel process for the ultimate in convenience. The City Centre Airport in Toronto drastically cuts your total travel time. Arrive just minutes from downtown – saving around two hours on a round trip from Montreal.

Another pleasant surprise is fast quiet modern aircraft with custom leather seats and more legroom than usual economy flights. This truly is flying refined.

Our prize this week includes a stay at the Hotel le Germain, Toronto in the heart of the Entertainment District. Prize winners will also enjoy a deluxe continental breakfast on the hotel's mezzanine level.

At the chic Hotel Le Germain Toronto, serenity and comfort are the hallmarks of each guest room. Rooms feature fine linens and luxurious feather duvets and pillows. Each bathroom includes a soaking tub or a glass-enclosed shower which offers a view into the bedroom.

Hotel Le Germain Toronto was awarded the 2004 Pierre Bougain Hotel of the Year (under 250 rooms). It was also named to Condé Nast Traveller's Hot List for 2004 as one of the 50 most stylish and luxurious new hotels in the world. It is steps away from the Rogers Centre, the Air Canada Centre and the best of the city's theatre, shops and restaurants.
