“Le Cavalier pays homage to the Brandywine River Valley’s equestrian heritage, back when Hotel Du Pont welcomed guests arriving by horse-drawn carriages as well as automobiles and on foot. Winning the award for “2020 Best Historic Restaurant” by Historic Hotels of America, Le Cavalier features ornate decor, expert service, and French classics as well as modern interpretations of Provençal and North African fare” according to USA Today 10Best.

The top overall hotel restaurant in the county is located in Memphis at Chez Philippe at The Peabody Memphis.

Fly Direct From Wilmington To These 15 Locations On Avelo Airlines

Avelo Airlines announced their new east coast base  at New Castle Airport earlier this year, with plenty of options to now fly direct from Wilmington.

This has been a game changer for travelers this summer looking to head south out of Delaware.  The days of trekking over to Philadelphia International Airport are becoming a thing of the past for some.

Since February, Avelo Airlines has been consistently adding desirable travel destinations to their growing itinerary.  Most recently, they announced their first nonstop flight to the Caribbean.  Starting this fall, you’ll be able to travel to San Juan, Puerto Rico.  This makes Avelo Airlines the first airline to offer nonstop flights beyond the continental United States from Wilmington at ILG.  So much more convenient than having to head to Philly.  The lines, the traffic, ugh!

Currently, all nonstop flights out of Wilmington are to locations along the east coast.  The price of a one way ticket is very reasonable with fares starting as low at $49.  Avelo is always offering some sort of promo code too.  Right now, for instance, you can get 50% off base fares for travel in September.

So, just where in the US can you fly direct from Wilmington, on Avelo Airlines?  Let’s take a look at the list below, including plenty of spots in Sunny Florida, the Carolinas, Music City and more!

  • Nashville, TN

    The airport is located within 7 miles of Downtown, Nashville.  Known for its well-renowned country music scene and savory southern cuisine, this iconic city has become a top destination for travelers around the world.
