Now it’s time to say goodbye to Jason…again. Here’s how Jason broke it to Carly that he’s leaving Port Charles on the March 12, 2026 episode of General Hospital.

Key Takeaways

• Jason is about to leave Port Charles with Britt.
• Jason said goodbye to Carly.
• Jason’s leave is only temporary.

Jason’s Leaving Port Charles

Jason (Steve Burton) already assured Britt (Kelly Thiebaud) of their plan: get her meds, head to Canada, and lay low there until Brick (Stephen A. Smith, who recently made a decision about his 2028 presidential run) could replicate the medication. It’s the perfect plan, except for the fact that Jason has to leave Port Charles…again.

Jason’s loved ones should be used to it by now. Aside from the amount of times he’s taken off, he’s also been presumed dead twice. But his presence in Port Charles is strong, and his absence will certainly be felt while he’s away, especially by Carly (Laura Wright).

After paying Valentin (James Patrick Stuart) a visit to ensure he keeps Carly safe during their attempt to take down Sidwell (Carlo Rota), Cullum (Andrew Hawkes), and Brennan (Chris McKenna), Jason met Carly in the kitchen to break the news to her. She knew Jason was currently putting Britt first, and she appreciated the trust he had in her to handle herself and the situation she’s been in.

The best friends said goodbye, not knowing when they would see each other again, but viewers have an idea. Burton is about to take a temporary leave from GH, with plans of returning this summer. But a lot can change in Port Charles between now and then, especially for the ones Jason holds dearest.

General Hospital spoilers for March 13 tease a major cliffhanger Friday as Portia (Brook Kerr) gets a shock while Jordan’s (Tanisha Harper) secret isn’t safe. Portia may be about to find out if Jordan’s pregnant, changing the trajectory of Curtis’ (Donnell Turner) future.
