TORONTO — Porter Airlines’ route from Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport to Chicago will soon feature Chicago O’Hare (ORD) instead of Chicago Midway (MDW).

Porter’s YTZ-ORD flights will reportedly start Sept. 1, 2026 on the carrier’s Q400 aircraft. Frequency will also increase, to 3x daily.

The news comes just a few months after Air Canada announced its plans to ramp up operations at YTZ, with new nonstops to four U.S. airports starting this spring, including Chicago O’Hare as of June 1.
