It'll provide you with plenty of flight options when you fly from Boston Logan International Airport on airlines like Air Canada and Porter Airlines.
  • While Air Canada and Porter Airlines can both fly you from Boston to Nova Scotia, Air Canada is typically going to be your best choice since it’ll offer non-stop flights that will clock in at under 1h 30min in many cases. You can also find one-stop flights from Air Canada and Porter Airlines that will take between 5 and 6 hours.

Flight was delayed but the real issue is how long we sat after boarding. Space very limited for an overnight flight and seatbacks didn’t recline so it was almost impossible to sleep.

Flight was delayed but the real issue is how long we sat after boarding. Space very limited for an overnight flight and seatbacks didn’t recline so it was almost impossible to sleep.

The staff made sure I was comfortable, moved me to a better seat with more leg room

Everything was fine, crew was great. Always appreciate an on-time flight.

The staff could have been friendlier. And Having the flight on time would have been much more convenient.

Old, noisy plane, bad coffee, delayed. Flight attendant was very nice.

We boarded 1.5 hours late. Long wait for the bags when we got to Mexico City. Long wait to get on plane with people mover truck. Friendly staff. They answered all questions as best the could. Such a long, long walk from the plane to customs. Thank you, Michael A. Burris Cambridge, Massachusetts USA

I was forced to check my carry-on bag, which I don't appreciate.

No entertainment. Luckily I was the only person in that row. Small seating

Speechless! How professionally running. I am so proud of Air Canada 🍁 👏 ..

The flight was booked solid and there is no leg room for anyone over 6 feet tall, which is probably 25% of your customers. I have selected aisle seats and was given the middle twice. This is not something that can be changed, so I shouldnt bring it up, but that is my feedback.
