Quebec airport
 
I was searching flights from/to San Francisco, and for Quebec Orbitz only offered turboprop or such tiny planes. Maybe I typed in the wrong airport? Is YQB the right one? Maybe some other, with regular planes?

(I only use Orbitz to look at the flights, not to make reservation)

Q400 on Air Canada from Toronto has 74 seats. It's bigger than most regional jets. If you want mainline jets, fly to Montreal and bus/drive/train over.

Thank you, and for your answer on another website too!

Oh, I didn't look closely enough. Westjet does fly Toronto-Quebec once a day on 737s, and they have seasonal service between SFO and Toronto in the summer.

Another airline that has mainline service is Canjet, which flies 737 between Quebec and Varadero in Cuba. Though may not be daily.

American codeshares with that Westjet flight that rkkwan mentions. You'd use AA to get as far as Toronto and connect with Westjet from there.

Thank you both!

I would not be put off by flying on a Q400. They are very quiet and comfortable planes.
