Avelo Airlines commemorates the 3rd anniversary of its inaugural flight on April 28, 2021, from Hollywood Burbank Airport in Los Angeles to Sonoma County Airport in the Bay Area. This launch marked Avelo as the first new U.S. airline in almost 15 years, promising affordable, convenient, and reliable air service for many travelers in America.

Avelo Airlines Founder, Chairman, and CEO Andrew Levy said, “Three years ago, Avelo took flight with a simple but powerful purpose – to Inspire Travel. Since then, we have fulfilled that mission for more than 4.6 million Customers who have experienced our money-saving low fares and time-saving convenience. Today, with 52 destinations across the U.S., it’s easier and more affordable than ever to visit many of our country’s most beautiful, vibrant, and popular locations. More airplanes and destinations are on the way, and we look forward to welcoming aboard millions of new and returning Customers in the years ahead.”
The airline enters its fourth year with robust customer support, operational efficiency, and financial growth. In the upcoming 60 days, Avelo plans to launch 17 new routes and add 10 new destinations.
Avelo marks the occasion with a third-anniversary promo code, “3YEARS,” offering travelers $30 off round trip base fares* between May and July. Travelers can apply the promo code on itineraries booked at AveloAir.com.

Avelo Airlines provides advanced seat assignments. They designate one-third of their seats as extra legroom options, with space ranging from 32 to +36 inches. Optional services such as priority boarding, checked bags, overhead carry-ons, and pet accommodation allow customers to customize their travel experience by paying only for what they need.

Avelo Airlines has expanded its fleet from three Boeing Next-Generation 737 jetliners at its inception to 16 aircraft today, consisting of nine 189-seat NG 737-800s and seven 149-seat NG 737-700s. The airline plans to add four more aircraft by the end of 2024.
Convenient Airline Service

Avelo Airlines enhances travel convenience by focusing on primarily underserved communities. They cater to travelers by using smaller, more accessible airports. This strategy avoids the hassles of larger airports, ensuring a smoother and more pleasant travel experience.
Avelo Airlines also offers flexible travel options. Customers can change or cancel their itineraries without incurring extra fees. The airline guarantees seating for every child aged 13 and under next to an accompanying adult at no additional cost, making it a family-friendly choice.
