Avelo is once more increasing its community with three new nonstop routes and two new locations.
The brand new airports becoming a member of Avelo’s route map are Alabama’s Cell Worldwide Airport (BFM) and South Carolina’s Greenville-Spartanburg Worldwide Airport (GSP). The ultra-low-cost startup introduced Thursday that it’ll fly from every of these airports to Orlando Worldwide Airport (MCO). Avelo will even fly from GSP to Tweed-New Haven Airport (HVN) in Connecticut.
Flights from BFM to MCO start Could 31 and function twice weekly on Thursdays and Sundays. Avelo’s growth to Cell is an attention-grabbing one.

At present, the Alabama airport has no business air service. Frontier Airways was the final service to serve the airport, and it beforehand operated flights to Chicago’s O’Hare Worldwide Airport (ORD) and Denver Worldwide Airport (DEN).
With Avelo’s arrival, the Houston-based service would be the solely service flying from the airport. BFM is positioned nearer to downtown Cell than the metro space’s main airport, Cell Regional Airport (MOB), which is served by the regional associates of American Airways, Delta Air Strains and United Airways. For now, BFM is primarily used for normal aviation and army operations, and it is close to Airbus’ U.S. meeting line. The Cell Airport Authority, which runs each airports, has stated it intends to ultimately shift all frequently scheduled business service to BFM.
