Low-Cost Airline Launches Nonstop Flights to Philadelphia Vicinity from Sarasota-Bradenton International Airport
Exciting news for air travelers – Avelo Airlines has announced the inauguration of a new nonstop service that connects the Sarasota Bradenton International Airport (SRQ) with the heart of the Delaware Valley. Commencing operations on a sunny Thursday, the first flight set course to Wilmington Airport (ILG), situated just 40 miles southwest of Philadelphia, in New Castle, Delaware.
Taking to the skies at 11:25 a.m., the inaugural journey was undertaken by a Boeing 737 jet, marking a significant milestone for Avelo Airlines as it extends its network. This new direct connection will operate twice a week, every Thursday and Sunday, providing a seamless link to the Philadelphia region.
The strategic location of Wilmington Airport is being celebrated for its convenience, as highlighted by an Avelo news release. The airport serves as a gateway to numerous parts of Delaware, Maryland, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania, and is seen as an optimal alternative to the often-crowded Philadelphia International Airport.
Rick Piccolo, President and CEO of SRQ, expressed enthusiasm about the new service in the release, anticipating that it will offer travelers an escape from the congestion of larger cities, while connecting them between two user-friendly airports.
Adding to Avelo’s growing network, this new service joins the airline’s existing routes from SRQ to the Tweed New Haven Airport and the Raleigh-Durham International Airport. Avelo Airlines prides itself on offering exclusively nonstop flights, now reaching 44 destinations spread across 23 states including Puerto Rico.
For those eager to experience the new route, promotional fares start at $59 for flights scheduled between December 1st and 17th, provided bookings are made by November 9th. Interested passengers can secure their seats by visiting AveloAir.com.
