Avelo Airlines announced today it is expanding service at Daytona Beach International Airport (DAB) with exclusive nonstop flights to Delaware’s Wilmington Airport (ILG) – a convenient and easy alternative to Philadelphia International Airport (PHL). Avelo will be the only airline flying between Daytona Beach and The First State.
Wilmington Airport is conveniently located a short drive south of Philadelphia – offering a refreshingly smooth and simple 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, South Jersey and the northern Eastern Shore of Maryland.
Avelo’s nonstop service from DAB to Wilmington will begin on June 23 and operate twice-weekly on Mondays and Fridays utilizing 189-seat Boeing Next-Generation 737-800 aircraft.
Avelo Airlines Chairman and CEO Andrew Levy said, “Daytona Beach – just two weeks since announcing Avelo’s arrival at DAB, we’re at it again! This new route to the Wilmington / Philadelphia area exemplifies our ongoing commitment to bringing Avelo’s low fares, industry-leading reliability and caring service to Daytona Beach travelers. Getting to the four-state Delaware Valley region is now easier than ever.”
Daytona Beach International Airport Director Karen Feaster said, “We are thrilled that our second non-stop flight on Avelo will launch the day after the inaugural flight from New Haven. Wilmington, Delaware is another strong market for travelers coming to and traveling from DAB. Adding these flights just in time for summer travel is sure to bring new visitors to our beautiful area and give our locals a great new non-stop destination.”
Avelo will now serve two nonstop destinations from DAB. Wilmington will join Connecticut’s most convenient airport — Tweed-New Haven Airport (HVN).
