i know porter airlines is old news now, but this is my first experience with it. my friend lavina and i are going to boston for a few days and decided to fly this time because she had a credit with porter that had to be used by january 1st.
firstoff, lavina was really excited to take a car, train, (shuttle) bus, boat and plane today. the shuttle from union station and the ferry to the island airport were pretty standard, the check-in was quick (i guess that helps when you don’t have nearly as many flights as at a big airport) and the employees were all really nice.
now we’re in the lounge, which is fancy! i had heard about the free drinks and snacks and the computers that you can use. i’ve been in the first class lounge at pearson once and this is comparable to it! but trendier, because it has macs instead of pc’s and is designed in a more sleek way. it’s also interesting seeing the clientelle. a couple with an older lady sitting across from us in the seating area are also taking porter for the first time. i know this because the woman was very surprised and delighted when her husband brought her a cup of coffee. i don’t think she had heard about the free drinks.
