These new routes expand travel options for the Charlotte region, making it easier and more affordable than ever to get to these two new destinations as well as Avelo’s other six nonstop destinations,” Levy said.

The airline will operate these flights using Boeing Next-Generation 737 aircraft. These exclusive routes expand on the service model Avelo established when it entered the Queen City market in early 2024. Travelers can access booking for these and other destinations through the company’s website.
