A new nonstop route to North Carolina has been added to the lineup at the Sarasota-Bradenton International Airport.

Avelo Airlines will begin flying from SRQ, the airport’s call letters, to Raleigh-Durham International (RDU) Airport Feb. 13, according to a statement. This is the airline’s second nonstop route at SRQ, with the other flying out to New Haven, Connecticut.

The airline will use a Boeing Next-Generation 737 aircraft to fly the route, which will operate Mondays, Fridays and Saturdays.

SRQ revealed Avelo Airlines as its 11th service provider last October with service beginning in February.
