Avelo Airlines Founder and CEO Andrew Levy said:
We continue to fulfill our purpose to Inspire Travel with the opening of Avelo’s Wilmington base and growing our network in these popular markets. These new routes enable Avelo to significantly expand the affordable, convenient and reliable air service our Customers value. Our investment in Wilmington and these additional routes exemplify our continued growth as we approach the 4th anniversary of Avelo’s inaugural flight.”
Since it began operations in April 2021, Avelo has flown more than 6.6 million passengers on over 53,000 flights.
Anthony’s Take: Avelo continues to expand and it’s great to see it adding new cities to the map. I’d love to see more choices from Chicago O’Hare International Airport (ORD). I enjoyed the Avelo experience (go in knowing that there are no amenities) and love that it connects cities that don’t otherwise have nonstop service.
