Last week, Avelo Airlines added a new nonstop service to Hartford’s Bradley International Airport in Connecticut and celebrated the return of the nonstop service to Wilmington Airport in the Philadelphia/Delaware Valley region from Daytona Beach International Airport.

Avelo now operates nonstop service to Hartford twice weekly on Fridays and Mondays and to Philadelphia/Wilmington on Thursdays and Sundays, utilizing Boeing Next-Generation 737 aircraft. Avelo is the first airline offering nonstop service between DAB and these two destinations, a press release announced. 

"Since the start of service at DAB about 18 months ago, Avelo has continued to introduce travelers in Daytona Beach to a new era of affordability, convenience and industry-leading reliability," Avelo Airlines founder and CEO Andrew Levy said. "We’re excited to grow at DAB and provide a new route to Hartford and return of service to the Philadelphia region. It is also clear the fast and easy travel-friendly experience DAB offers has played an equally significant role in inspiring over 60,000 people to fly with us.”

Avelo has flown more than 60,000 customers on over 400 flights since starting service in Daytona Beach. Avelo now serves three nonstop destinations from DAB, Hartford, and Philadelphia/Delaware Valley and Southern Connecticut’s Tweed-New Haven Airport.

“Our community has been very supportive of the Avelo service since it launched last year," Airport Director Karen Feaster said. "The new Hartford, Connecticut route and the resumption of Wilmington, Delaware service will provide our residents with more options to get to these metropolitan areas and make it easier for vacationers to visit our beautiful area.”
