Avelo Airlines begins service between Tweed Airport and San Juan

Avelo Airlines is launching its latest Tweed New Haven Airport route today with nonstop service to San Juan Luis Muñoz Marín International Airport in San Juan, Puerto Rico.

This marks the first time the carrier is flying outside of the continental U.S. Avelo will offer twice weekly service (on Wednesdays and Saturdays) between New Haven and San Juan; the carrier is also beginning service between San Juan and Delaware’s Wilmington Airport, which serves the Greater Philadelphia market.

“Puerto Rico – Viaja con Avelo!” said Avelo Airlines Chairman and CEO Andrew Levy, adding that “today marks another significant milestone in Avelo’s journey to introduce a new era of convenient, affordable and reliable air travel. These exclusive nonstop routes will make travel between the Island of Enchantment and the Greater Philly and Southern Connecticut easier and faster than ever. And with two of the largest Puerto Rican populations in the U.S., Philadelphia and Connecticut were a natural choice for Avelo’s inaugural service to San Juan.”
