If you aren’t familiar with Avelo Airlines, that may be about to change. The ultra low-cost carrier based in Houston, Texas, announced Tuesday that it is launching 13 new routes and three new U.S. destinations,

Avelo's CEO told The Ledger in February that the airline would begin direct flights to Michigan, but when and where was still in flux. Flights begin this summer.

Houston-based Avelo Airlines has added Long Island MacArthur Airport as a new destination, offering flights to North Carolina and Florida. Introductory fares begin at $59. Avelo is the fifth airline to join the airport. Also flying out of MacArthur are Breeze Airways, Frontier Airlines, JetBlue Airways and Southwest Airlines.
