Some people who live on the Toronto Islands and in Toronto's Lakeshore Condos are calling for a public boycott of Porter Air, the new airlines that is set to launch from Toronto's City Centre Airport on Monday morning.

Not everyone is ready to boycott the new Porter Air. After all, a flight into the Toronto Islands would save the time and hassle of battling Toronto commuting traffic.

"Just the ease of being able to get there in a few minutes, compared with the Gardiner [Expressway], has got to be inviting," said Anne Bell, a partner with an accounting service firm on King Street West. "There wouldn't be any reason why myself and my associates wouldn't look into it in the future."

Porter Air plans to fly 10 flights a day between downtown Toronto and Ottawa.
