Interesting. I've never heard of the airline, but I've been in and out of RDU a few times. It's a nice little airport and pretty convenient to get in and out of.

I wonder why RDU to MHT though? Seems kind of random.

Yeah I have no idea. As someone from NH who is snowbirding near Raleigh it was so random to see this. RDU must have just barely added this airline too. When I first got here it was not there and now it is in the terminal with SW and Spirit.

I'm now tempted to buy a house in both places because the worst part of flying from NH is there's nearly no direct flights to where you actually want to be. Avelo doesn't have that bad reviews but once they gets their legs and some market share will they devolve to Spirit level service? I dunno

Idk I was looking at Avelo reviews and it seems like 50% of their flights have delays of more than 3 hours. That's a deal breaker for me

If you look at their other destinations from Raleigh - many in Florida - it creates another connection NH to popular FL locations

Why RDU to MHT? Simple. They don’t fly to BOS and they wanted to add service to the Boston area. BOS charges high fees. They’re a low cost airline with only 15 planes.

I guess the question is, why MHT over PVD? My guess is that MHT is probably pretty desperate to get more business, so it doesn’t die a slow death like ORH is currently. Also, it’s a differentiating factor. They’re the only ones flying this route now. Southwest already does PVD to RDU. Moreover, any new destination for a pitiful airport like MHT gets noticed.

Good god it must be nice to be a rich boomer. You’re really gonna buy a house because you can avoid a 90 minute bus ride from Logan now? Just drop $500k just like that? Fuck you.

I mean could I technically? Probably but yeah idk if it's the best deployment of money and I was kinda exagerating but the winter here in NC sure was nice and mild. Also i'm 35 tho lol....

Someone is feeling a little jealous and insecure.

First, calling someone a boomer is such a lazy insult. At least put some effort into it. Second, you likely have no idea of their age. Third, instead of being jealous and complaining, maybe instead put that effort into bettering yourself so that you can reach a level of wealth that will enable you to own multiple houses.

Jealousy is such an ugly look.

While I suppose having a negative opinion if someone got their funds by swindling people or some other crime, I have never understood the hatred of the financially successful.

They said they’re snowbirding… usually a term associated with retirement age.

Just flew out ORH. You mentioned slow death. ORH looks like it died a long time ago. Did it have a hey-day of some kind?

Relax. Lots of people would trade money for youth. Take advantage of your youth.

Its like any bias right. They personally met a few wealthy assholes, add some jealousy in there for good measure and viola, bob’s your uncle.
