There is a dispute as to whether it was allowed. It has been flying from the island airport for many years. The questions of whether the port authority conducted a proper competitive tendering process to allow one airline versus the other airline to come in, or whether allowing just one airline, Porter Airlines, to operate out of it constitutes a monopoly are subject to a court debate.
The dealings of the port authority are subject to a lot of controversy. I believe Jazz have now taken the port authority and also Transport Canada, I think, to court. I'm not 100% sure, but certainly that lawsuit is quite recent.
