Avelo
Airlines is ramping up its operations in the Delaware and Philadelphia
region with new and returning routes, further enhancing its presence just over
a year after reintroducing commercial flights at Wilmington Airport (ILG).
The airline is set
to launch a new service connecting Wilmington to Atlanta's Hartsfield-Jackson
International Airport (ATL) and will also resume several popular routes to
Florida in November. At the same time, the ultra-low-cost carrier will be bringing
a second, based aircraft back to ILG.
Beginning November
8, Avelo will offer twice-weekly flights from Wilmington to Atlanta, operating
on Mondays and Fridays. The ultra-low-cost carrier is celebrating the launch of
this new route with introductory promotional fares starting as low as $46
one-way, available for purchase through August 13 for travel between November 8
and November 18.
In addition to the
new Atlanta service, Avelo is bringing back flights to several Florida
destinations, a move likely to please sun-seeking travelers. The airline will
resume twice-weekly service to Daytona Beach International Airport (DAB)
starting November 7, with flights available on Thursdays and Sundays. This will
be followed by the return of flights to Palm Beach International Airport (PBI)
on November 8, operating on Mondays and Fridays. Later in the month, on
November 23, Avelo will restart service to Sarasota Bradenton International
Airport (SRQ) with flights scheduled for Wednesdays and Saturdays.
“Avelo is proud to
be the Philadelphia/Delaware Valley region’s airline of choice and continue
growth at ILG with a new route to Atlanta, the return of Daytona Beach, the
Palm Beaches and Sarasota-Bradenton, and adding back our second based aircraft,”
Avelo’s Airlines Founder and CEO, Andrew Levy, said in its announcement.
“Our Customers tell us they love the convenience, affordability and reliability
of flying Avelo at ILG. I appreciate the support Avelo has received from
community leaders across the state and send special thanks to our awesome ILG
Crewmembers who make it all happen.”
Avelo brought back
service to Delaware in 2023, following a period with no flights available in
the state, and has since grown its operations to include 13 nonstop
destinations from ILG. Others include Charlotte/Concord (USA) and Wilmington (ILM),
North Carolina; Myrtle Beach, South Carolina (MYR); Fort Lauderdale (FLL), Fort
Myers (RSW), Orlando/Lakeland (LAL), Orlando (MCO) and Tampa (TPA), Florida;
and San Juan, Puerto Rico (SJU).
The airline also
expanded its reach last year by launching flights to Puerto Rico and recently
announced plans to begin service to its first
international destinations in Mexico
and Jamaica.
