Avelo Airlines Expands Service from Manchester-Boston Regional Airport with New Route to Greenville, South Carolina

Avelo will also increase existing flights to Raleigh, North Carolina, from two times weekly to four starting May 2, 2024.

 

[MANCHESTER, NH] – February 15, 2024 – Manchester-Boston Regional Airport (MHT) is excited to announce that Avelo Airlines will be adding a twice-weekly route from MHT to Greenville-Spartanburg International Airport (GSP) starting May 10, 2024. In addition, Avelo will expand its existing route to Raleigh-Durham International Airport (RDU) from twice weekly to four times weekly starting May 2, 2024.

“We are grateful for Avelo’s continued commitment to New Hampshire with the addition of a new nonstop route to the Greenville-Spartanburg region, and increased service to Raleigh-Durham,” said Airport Director Ted Kitchens, A.A.E. “Today’s announcement is a result of the support from both the Raleigh and Manchester communities of the initial Avelo route from MHT. It is critical that we do the same with the Greenville-Spartanburg route. If we do, it will assist in strengthening our partnership with Avelo Airlines and inspire even more travel for the residents of Manchester and New Hampshire.”

“MHT – Avelo is growing!” Avelo Airlines Chairman and CEO Andrew Levy said. “We’re excited to introduce nonstop service between the Boston area and Greenville / Spartanburg. Whether visiting friends and family or enjoying a leisurely vacation, Avelo offers time and money-saving convenience for our Customers. This exclusive nonstop service will also make exploring MHT’s rich history and scenic outdoor views a fast and seamless journey for Upstate South Carolina visitors.”

“Avelo’s introduction of nonstop service between these two regions opens a gateway to exploration, inviting travelers to discover the mountains, southern charm, and the vibrant dining scene that defines our beloved Greenville-Spartanburg area,” said Tom Tyra, Vice President and Chief Marketing and Communications Officer for the Greenville-Spartanburg International Airport. “The Manchester-Boston region is one of our most requested destinations. As we celebrate this new connection, we know Upstate South Carolina travelers will be drawn to the opportunities for leisure and business travel awaiting them in the Manchester-Boston region.”

“I am excited to see Avelo Airlines grow at Manchester-Boston Regional Airport,” said Manchester Mayor Jay Ruais. “Avelo’s low-cost flights to Greenville and Raleigh will not only give our community more opportunities to travel but will also drive economic development for our entire region. Just as there is a connection between Manchester and Raleigh through our tech and life science ecosystems, so too is it with Manchester and Greenville. The cultural ties are borne from both cities being textile towns, both having rejuvenated their downtowns, and both being home to minor league baseball teams: Manchester for the Toronto Blue Jays and Greenville for the Boston Red Sox. I am sure that the citizens of Manchester and the Granite State will find a lot of things to love about this new service.”

MHT’s flight to Greenville will be operated twice weekly on Mondays and Fridays. Raleigh will be operated four times weekly on Sundays, Mondays, Thursdays and Fridays.

Avelo is the only airline offering nonstop service from New Hampshire to Greenville, South Carolina, and Raleigh, North Carolina. Both routes will be operated on Boeing Next-Generation 737 aircraft.

Avelo is MHT’s newest airline and was first launched at MHT on June 21, 2023.
