An Air Canada affiliate plans to launch operations from Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport on May 1, posing the first competition from the controversial downtown island airfield for incumbent regional carrier Porter Airlines since it launched operations in 2006.

Air Canada said last month that a new regional affiliate–Sky Regional Airlines–would operate up to 15 daily return flights between downtown Toronto and Montreal’s Trudeau International Airport using five Bombardier Q400 turboprops leased from Air Canada subsidiary Jazz Air.
