A value-priced airline has added another route to and from Sarasota-Bradenton International Airport. Avelo Airlines has announced new nonstop service between SRQ and Raleigh-Durham International Airport in North Carolina.

One-way fares on the new route will start at $49. Flights will operate on next-next-generation Boeing 737 aircraft. Avelo also operates nonstop service between SRQ and Tweed-New Haven Airport in New Haven, Connecticut.

“We appreciate the reception Avelo has received from Florida’s Gulf Coast and look forward to continuing to bolster our presence with Avelo’s convenient and reliable air service,” Avelo Chair and CEO Andrew Levy said.

More than 50 nonstop destinations are now offered at SRQ. Last week, Breeze Airways announced new service to and from T.F. Green International Airport near Providence, Rhode Island.
