Plattsburgh to DC Flights starting this Summer
http://www.watertowndailytimes.com/news ... plate=mwdt
2 x 50 seats every day to Washington Dulles where there is no going through security again when changing planes (like happens sometime in Boston and New York).
American Airlines subsidized flights from Watertown ART to Philadelphia aren’t particularly cheap, but I blame the large military base. Plattsburgh, on the other hand, has no military and Clinton County only has 81,000 people. So I predict they will have fairly inexpensive tickets to attract people from Vermont, Quebec and Ontario. Unlike propeller planes, regional jets need to be fairly full to remain profitable (keeping in mind these are subsidized flights).
If you are going to DC, you’d really have to be price sensitive, as both Montreal and Ottawa have direct flights into Reagon. Not sure when Toronto Billy Bishop will get US pre-clearance, but you can bet Porter will start flying to Reagon as soon as they do.
Tickets aren’t being sold yet, but look for deals in the very near future (in particular to Florida as United competes with non stop Allegiant and Spirit).
There will likely be subsidized flights from Massena to Boston, as they switch from Baltimore. United will also likely be serving Presqu’Isle PQI to Newark (50 seats x 1 a day). PQI is the closest US airport to Edmundston and Fredericton. http://www.wagmtv.com/content/news/New- ... 16503.html

Toronto is a very small part of Canada
