Avelo will initially operate this route twice-weekly on Wednesdays and Saturdays before switching to Mondays and Fridays. Avelo also is offering a $39 one-way fare between GSP and Orlando. Customers can make reservations at AveloAir.com.

"We’re excited to introduce Upstate S.C. to Avelo’s low fares, industry-leading reliability and caring service,” Avelo Airlines chairman and CEO Andrew Levy said in the release. “With hometown airport access to Orlando, and the addition of routes to New Haven and South Philly later this month, travel from GSP is now easier than ever. And with the irresistibly low summer fares we announced today, taking that summer vacation to Orlando, Philly or the greater Delaware region is now more affordable than ever.”

Nonstop service between GSP and Orlando began last week. Avelo will initially operate this route twice-weekly on Wednesdays and Saturdays before switching to Mondays and Fridays on June 23. Avelo is the only airline offering nonstop jet service to MCO.

Avelo will also begin twice weekly service to two additional popular destinations on June 22: Southern Connecticut’s Tweed-New Haven Airport (HVN) and the Philadelphia / Delaware Valley’s Wilmington Airport (ILG) — an alternative to Philadelphia International Airport (PHL). All three new routes will operate on Boeing Next-Generation 737 aircraft.

“We are excited to welcome Avelo Airlines to Greenville-Spartanburg International Airport,” GSP International Airport President and CEO Dave Edwards said in the release. “Avelo’s new nonstop jet service to Orlando and the Philly / Delaware Valley region provide greater connectivity and a new lowfare option for travel to and from the Upstate South Carolina region.”
