Avelo Airlines has been recapitalized, and its cash position is now one of the strongest in the U.S. airline industry relative to its size. The airline will use this cash infusion and balance sheet strength to execute its long-term strategy, with emphasis on further developing its key base at Tweed-New Haven Airport (HVN).

Connecticut has played and will continue to play a defining role in Avelo’s network. Avelo will continue to operate a six‑aircraft base at HVN without major changes to the existing network or to its Crewmember employment base at the airport. Avelo serves more destinations out of Connecticut than any other airline and remains committed to delivering convenient, affordable, and reliable service across the state and region.

At a national level, Avelo is streamlining its network around four current bases – New Haven, Conn. (HVN); Philadelphia / Delaware Valley (ILG); Charlotte / Concord, N.C. (USA); and Central Florida / Lakeland (LAL). In addition, the airline will open a base in Dallas / McKinney, Texas (TKI) in late 2026. As part of this evolution, Avelo will close its bases in Mesa, Ariz. (AZA); Raleigh-Durham, N.C. (RDU); and Wilmington, N.C. (ILM). Avelo will continue serving Raleigh-Durham, N.C. (RDU) and Wilmington, N.C. (ILM) from Tweed-New Haven Airport (HVN).

Concurrent with these network changes, Avelo will make near-term schedule changes that will impact many Customer itineraries. Communication will be sent directly to impacted Customers by email and text. Customers needing additional help can seek assistance from Avelo’s Customer Support Center.

Avelo’s fleet will be modified by the removal of six Boeing Next-Generation 737-700 aircraft, leaving the airline primarily operating its more efficient Boeing Next-Generation 737-800 aircraft. These changes enable Avelo to focus on sustainably scaling five core bases in 2026 and to prepare the company for growth in the coming years, facilitated by the company’s recent order for up to 100 Embraer 195-E2 aircraft.

Avelo’s Continued Commitment to New Haven

Beginning in mid-February, Avelo will increase flight frequency on its route from HVN to West Palm Beach, Fla. (PBI). In addition to added frequency, Avelo will continue its service to the following destinations:

• Atlanta, Ga. (ATL)
• Charleston, S.C. (CHS)
• Charlotte / Concord, N.C. (USA)
• Chicago, Ill. (via ORD)
• Dallas-Fort Worth, Texas (DFW)

• Fort Myers, Fla. (RSW)
• Greenville / Spartanburg, S.C. (GSP)
• Houston, Texas (Hobby) (HOU)
• Jacksonville, Fla. (JAX)
• Key West, Fla. (EYW)
• Lakeland / Orlando, Fla. (LAL)
• Myrtle Beach, S.C. (MYR)
• Nashville, Tenn. (BNA)
• Orlando, Fla. (MCO)
• Raleigh / Durham, N.C. (RDU)
• San Juan, Puerto Rico (SJU)
• Sarasota / Bradenton, Fla. (SRQ)
• Savannah, Ga. / Hilton Head, S.C. (SAV)
• Tampa, Fla. (TPA)
• Washington, D.C./Baltimore, Md. (BWI)
• Wilmington, N.C. (ILM)

New Haven is Avelo’s largest base – employing nearly 300 Crewmembers and offering service to 24 nonstop destinations. Since taking flight from HVN in November 2021, Avelo has flown more than four million Customers at Tweed on over 30,000 flights.
