By connecting underserved markets with popular destinations, Avelo is making travel more accessible to a wider range of people. The addition of the San Juan and St. Croix routes is particularly significant, as it provides a direct, low-cost option for travelers from the Northeast looking to escape to the Caribbean.

For example, the route from New Haven, CT (HVN) to San Juan, Puerto Rico (SJU) opens up a convenient gateway for residents of Connecticut and surrounding areas to experience the beauty and culture of Puerto Rico without the hassle of connecting flights or high fares. Similarly, the New Haven to St. Croix (STX) route provides a much-needed connection to this tranquil island paradise.

Expanding Beyond the Caribbean: Domestic Routes Added Too

The airline is also adding several new domestic routes, including services from Wilmington, DE (ILG) and Manchester, NH (MHT).

The addition of flights from Wilmington, DE (ILG) to cities like Melbourne, FL (MLB), Raleigh/Durham, NC (RDU), and Daytona Beach, FL (DAB), give travelers more options to popular destinations.
