New Locomotion 8/12/2025 Late Night

Porter, which now has direct flights from Phoenix, got me to Toronto about 8 PM. Escaping the 115°F heat in Phoenix, it was only in the 80s in Toronto, but it was humid. It is predicted to be cooler for most of my 7-night stay.

I sometimes use Air Canada directly, but didn't want to risk their attendants' strike. I got tired of having to change planes in Chicago when using about 400k FF miles on American Airlines. Porter Reserve (first 2 rows) is very nice, with lots of room for my legs to stretch. I'm 6-1. No seatmate in the 2nd seat made it even better. Porter only has 2/2 seating, no middle seats, good service, and virtually the same price as an Air Canada premium seat.
