Low-cost carrier Avelo Airlines has just announced nonstop service between Central Wisconsin Airport (CWA) and Orlando International Airport (MCO).
Avelo is the first and only low-fare airline serving CWA and the only one offering nonstop flights to Central Florida’s Theme Park Capital of the World. The new service will allow travelers to fore-go long drives to other Wisconsin airports or longer, expensive connecting flights on other airlines.
Beginning on October 5, 2023, Avelo will offer twice weekly service to Orlando on Thursdays and Sundays on its Boeing Next-Generation (NG) 737 aircraft. These introductory one-way fares between CWA and MCO start at $49.
"Central Wisconsin – say hello to Avelo!” said the airline’s Chairman and CEO Andrew Levy in a statement. “We are excited to announce exclusive nonstop service to Orlando. Avelo's combination of everyday low fares, industry-leading reliability and friendly service, coupled with CWA's time and money-saving convenience will inspire people from across the region to enjoy all Orlando has to offer. Getting to the Theme Park Capital of the World is now easier and more affordable than ever. With the addition of Wisconsin to Avelo's nationwide route network, Avelo will now serve half the United States."
Wisconsin Economic Development Corporation (WEDC) Secretary and CEO Missy Hughes said, "Avelo's decision to extend air service to Central Wisconsin Airport is a win for residents of Northern and Central Wisconsin. This will create opportunities for business and recreational travel and make central Wisconsin an even more attractive place to live, work, and grow. As we have seen in other regions, we know this expansion will result in new and diversified economic impacts for the local communities as they take advantage of the partnership with Avelo."
Central Wisconsin Airport Board Chair David Ladick added "Hello Avelo! We are excited to welcome Avelo Airlines to Central Wisconsin Airport. Avelo's new nonstop, year-round service to Orlando provides a new low-fare option and greater connectivity for travel to and from central and northern Wisconsin. We look forward to growing with our new airline partner. Fly CWA – Your Journey Begins Here."
Avelo, which launched service in April 2021 now serves 46 destinations in 25 states. In addition to offering everyday low fares, Avelo travelers can change or cancel their itinerary with no extra fees. Reservations can be booked at AveloAir.com.
