Avelo Airlines, the popular low-cost carrier, is continuing its expansion efforts with the announcement of seven new routes, including two exciting international flights to the Caribbean. Starting in 2025, the airline will significantly enhance its presence in North Carolina, launching a combination of domestic and international flights to new destinations from Raleigh-Durham, Charlotte, and Wilmington airports.
One of the most anticipated additions to Avelo’s route map is the introduction of direct flights from Raleigh-Durham International Airport (RDU) to Montego Bay, Jamaica, and Punta Cana, Dominican Republic. These new flights, which begin in February 2025, will operate twice weekly, offering travelers a convenient gateway to two of the most sought-after vacation spots in the Caribbean. Avelo’s CEO, Andrew Levy, expressed enthusiasm for the expansion, stating that the new routes would provide more travel options for residents of North Carolina and further boost tourism between the state and international destinations.
Beyond the Caribbean, Avelo Airlines is also strengthening its domestic network from North Carolina. In April 2025, the airline will introduce new routes from Wilmington International Airport (ILM) and Charlotte’s Concord-Padgett Regional Airport (USA). Wilmington will see direct flights to Nashville and Manchester, New Hampshire, while Charlotte will offer nonstop flights to Daytona Beach, Florida, and Nashville, Tennessee. These new additions are expected to increase Avelo’s nonstop routes from North Carolina to 27 destinations.
Levy highlighted that the airline’s growth is just beginning, saying, “Our 27 nonstop destinations are just the beginning.” He also emphasized the carrier’s role in providing more travel options for North Carolinians, while simultaneously making the state more accessible to visitors from across the East Coast and abroad.
The strategic expansion in North Carolina is complemented by the airline’s plans to establish two new bases in Charlotte and Wilmington by 2025, which will allow Avelo to better serve travelers in the region. The airline is committed to using its Boeing Next-Generation 737 aircraft for these new routes, ensuring an efficient and comfortable flying experience for passengers.
To celebrate the launch of these new routes, Avelo Airlines is offering attractive fares, with one-way tickets starting as low as $44. However, travelers will need to act fast, as this limited-time offer is available only for bookings made by December 10. This pricing, paired with Avelo’s expanding flight network, makes the airline an increasingly appealing choice for budget-conscious travelers seeking new adventures.
As Avelo Airlines continues to grow and add more destinations, it’s clear that the carrier is positioning itself as a key player in both domestic and international travel. Whether you’re dreaming of a tropical getaway to the Caribbean or exploring new U.S. cities, Avelo’s new routes from North Carolina offer more options for those looking to travel affordably and conveniently.
