If you already carry the BMO VIPorter Mastercard, you're one step from Porter Airlines status — actually, no step at all. Porter Airlines VIPorter Passport tier is granted automatically the moment the card is approved, covering both the primary cardholder and any authorized users, with no stays or separate application required.
The catch isn't in the match, it's in the card: the BMO VIPorter Mastercard carries an $89 annual fee, waived for the first year, and Passport status only stays active for as long as you keep the card open. There's no other route to Passport tier bundled with this card — it's the one benefit this particular product confers, and it's an entry-level tier rather than a higher status.
