Porter Airlines flies into the Purple Goldfish Project

#300 in the Purple Goldfish Project submitted by Brian Millman:

“I wanted to send through a Purple Goldfish to help in your quest for 1,001. I’m not sure if you have heard of Porter Airlines, but it is a short-haul airline which flies out of Toronto’s city centre airport (very cute and small airport) and focuses on business travelers. It started primarily operating in Canada with one US route to Newark but has expanded to fly to Boston, Chicago and Myrtle Beach.

With most airlines, you expect to sit in the typical terminal with old rows of seats. At Porter’s hub, they offer a VIP lounge for everyone. The terminal area is set up similar to that of any VIP lounge: a kitchen stocked filled with FREE soda and water, two cappuccino machines, and free snacks (Cookies & chips). Porter also offers FREE Wi-Fi with a power port under every seat as well as 14 computers for those without a laptop.

ALSO- not sure if I have gotten lucky, but supposedly there is an $100 change fee for jumping on an earlier flight… but I haven’t been charged for it once.”

Today’s Lagniappe (a little something extra) – Here is a video on Porter.  Love the lounge.  Thanks a latte.

Where is the lagniappe in your marketing?
