CHARLOTTE, N.C. — In honor of National Pizza Day this Sunday, Avelo Airlines is celebrating New Haven, Connecticut’s world-famous pizza legacy with a large slice of affordability for Charlotte travelers. As the official airline of New Haven Apizza (the original name bestowed to the city’s unique style of pizza), Avelo is offering $40 off* roundtrip base fares from Charlotte/Concord (USA) to Southern Connecticut’s most convenient airport — Tweed-New Haven Airport (HVN).
Avelo is offering the discount to make it easier and more affordable for Charlotte-area travelers to experience New Haven pizza for themselves. Travelers can take advantage of the $40 roundtrip discount by applying the “CTPIZZA” promo code when booking their trips at AveloAir.com. Flights must be purchased by February 13, 2025, for travel on select dates* between March 26 and June 10, 2025.
Avelo Airlines Founder and CEO Andrew Levy said, “As the official airline of New Haven Apizza, we can’t think of a better way to celebrate National Pizza Day than help Charlotte-area pizza lovers discover Connecticut’s world-famous pizza for themselves. Of course, there is so much more to enjoy during a visit to New Haven than just great pizza. From refreshing coastal outdoor excursions to an infinite array of cultural venues and experiences, there is something for everyone in this gateway to New England and short train ride to the Big Apple.”
Last spring, Connecticut Pizza was recognized as America’s Best Pizza in a proclamation recorded as a Congressional Record Statement led by Connecticut U.S. Representative Rosa DeLauro. On May 22, 2024, Avelo flew a delegation of 100 pizzeria owners, public officials, community leaders, veterans, pizza enthusiasts, and media to Washington, D.C., for the ceremony on the steps of the U.S. Capitol.
In addition to the fare discount, Avelo is collaborating with Taste of New Haven to offer out-of-town visitors $40 off their world-famous pizza-tasting tours. Travelers can learn more about New Haven Pizza Tours and book their pizza pilgrimage using the same “CTPIZZA” promo code at TasteofNewHaven.com.
Taste of New Haven Founder and CEO Colin Caplan said, “Taste of New Haven has teamed up with Avelo Airlines to encourage pizza lovers to visit New Haven and embark on a pizza pilgrimage to the Pizza Capital of America. As the official airline of apizza, we are proud to offer Avelo Customers this very special rate on our Pizza Tours. Get this hot deal while the pizza is still hot.”
