Avelo Airlines
Avelo Airlines, an American ultra-low-cost carrier (ULCC) that began flying in April 2021, aims to “Inspire Travel” by offering affordable, convenient, and reliable flights, primarily by connecting travelers with smaller, more accessible airports. Founded by Andrew Levy, a former executive at Allegiant Air and United Airlines, Avelo’s business model focuses on ultra-low base fares (with unbundled services like bags and seat assignments costing extra), point-to-point routes to underserved markets using efficient Boeing 737s, and a strong commitment to operational reliability and a customer-focused approach. Since its launch, Avelo has rapidly expanded its network, establishing multiple operating bases and providing new, budget-friendly travel options, making air travel more accessible for many.
