Avelo Airlines reported it is observing strong booking trends ahead of the highly anticipated opening of the airline’s Wilmington Airport (ILG) base on February 1. Avelo will serve five nonstop Florida destinations from the Delaware Valley’s most convenient and easiest airport.

Special pre-launch introductory one-way fares starting at $49* are available at AveloAir.com.

When Avelo’s ILG base opens in two weeks, the airline will offer nonstop flights to five popular Florida destinations: Fort Lauderdale, Fort Myers, Orlando, Tampa and West Palm Beach. Avelo will fly to Fort Lauderdale on Thursdays and Sundays; Fort Myers on Mondays and Fridays; Orlando on Mondays, Fridays and Saturdays; Tampa on Thursdays and Sundays; and West Palm Beach on Wednesdays and Saturdays.

To commemorate its ILG base opening, Avelo will operate a special inaugural flight on Feb. 1 from Wilmington to Orlando International Airport (MCO) – Central Florida’s most convenient and popular airport.

Wilmington Airport offers a refreshingly smooth, simple and friendly alternative hometown airport experience. ILG’s adjacency to multiple major highways makes it the Delaware Valley’s most convenient and travel-friendly airport, encompassing portions of four states: Delaware, Southeastern Pennsylvania / Philadelphia, South Jersey and the northern Eastern Shore of Maryland.

Avelo will initially base one Boeing Next-Generation (NG) 737 at ILG and employ 35 Crewmembers (employees), including Airport Customer Service, Aircraft Technical Operations and Maintenance, Flight Attendants, Pilots and Supervisors.
