Avelo Airlines is expanding its service out of the Wilmington Airport (ILG) this fall.
Beginning November 7, Avelo will offer nonstop service from Wilmington to Orlando, Florida using Lakeland Linder International Airport and Charlotte, North Carolina using Concord-Padgett Regional Airport.
The airline will operate these routes twice weekly utilizing Boeing Next-Generation 737 aircraft.
“Avelo is proud to be the Philadelphia / Delaware Valley region’s airline of choice. Our Customers tell us they love the convenience, affordability and reliability of flying Avelo at ILG. These addition of these two new routes is a testament to positive reception Avelo has received in the region,” Avelo Airlines Founder and CEO Andrew Levy said in a news release.
