Avelo Launches Wilmington to Wilmington, Plus 8 New Routes to Delaware

Avelo is firmly putting Wilmington, Delaware (ILG) on its route map.

The ultra-low-cost start-up is almost tripling the number of destinations served from the airport by adding 9 new nonstop routes this summer.

Additionally, the services span 5 states up and down, focusing on popular East Coast vacation spots such as Daytona Beach, Myrtle Beach, Savannah, and even Nashville.

“We are pleased with the enthusiastic reception Avelo has received since our airline took flight here in February,” said Andrew Levy, CEO at Avelo Airlines. “Based on this initial customer response to our first 5 Florida routes, we are excited to bring Wilmington these 9 new routes to several of our most popular East Coast destinations.”

Here’s everything you need to know about this exciting development at Delaware’s only airport.

Fly to More Destinations Than Ever From Wilmington Thanks To Avelo

Not 1, not 2, but 9 new routes will be available to fly from Wilmington this summer.

Over the course of a few days between June 22 and June 28, 2023, the routes departing up and down the East Coast, as well as across to Nashville, will take to the skies for the first time.

Furthermore, the table below highlights the most important pieces of information about the 9 new routes including destination, start date, frequency, and enticing introductory fares that Avelo is currently offering.

Avelo’s Newest Routes: Start Date and Frequency

One of the most interesting new routes is Avelo’s Wilmington, Delaware, to Wilmington, North Carolina, service. Just last month, rival carrier Breeze Airways launched a new route between Charleston, South Carolina, and Charleston, West Virginia.

Once Avelo’s new flights to Melbourne and Savannah have inaugurated, the total number of destinations available to fly to — and only with Avelo — from Wilmington will be 14. Finally, Avelo operates a fleet made of entirely Boeing 737 aircraft with all economy seating in a 3-3 configuration.

Final Thoughts

Avelo is the regional gift that keeps on giving.

Until the airline’s first arrival in Wilmington in February 2023, citizens of Delaware had to travel out of state to hop on a commercial flight.

Just a few months later, and Avelo will have opened up nonstop travel opportunities to 14 destinations.

We can’t wait to see what the rest of 2023 has in store for Avelo!
