"Harry Reid International Airport is excited to welcome Porter Airlines, and its daily, nonstop service from Toronto. We know that Canadians love flying to Las Vegas, and the addition of Porter provides yet another convenient option for these travellers."
- Rosemary Vassiliadis, Clark County director of aviation
"We are thrilled that this new direct flight from Toronto with Porter Airlines will give Canadians another convenient option to travel to Las Vegas," said "Porter Airlines in Las Vegas is a natural fit. Just like the airline has no middle seats on their flights, there are no 'middle seat' experiences in Las Vegas. From our A-list entertainment, world-class dining options, a full calendar of sporting events and an endless array of experiences, only the extraordinary can be here."
- Kate Wik, chief marketing officer for the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority
"On behalf of the Government of Canada, I am pleased to congratulate Porter Airlines on its new Toronto Pearson to Las Vegas Harry Reid airport route. This route is another great connection between two tourism powerhouses - both cities share incredibly diverse culinary scenes, vibrant arts and culture attractions, and live entertainment. The route will support the 1.4 million Canadian tourists that visit Las Vegas annually and will facilitate strong business connections, particularly given prominent Canadian investments in Nevada and Las Vegas' leading role as a location for international conferences, events and business development."
- Zaib Shaikh, Consul General of Canada in Los Angeles
