Why Avelo Airlines Is a U.S. Low-Cost Carrier Worth Your Attention

"Avelo Airlines is a new U.S. airline that started service out of Burbank, California, in April 2021. Avelo focuses on underused airports to make fares cheaper and offers perks like inexpensive bag-check fees. The airline operates Boeing 737-800s on the west coast and Boeing 737-700s on the east coast, exclusively between Connecticut and Florida. Avelo's strategy includes investing $1.2 million for a new terminal at Tweed-New Haven Airport. They offer low-cost travel with fees for services like seat selection and baggage, but these are relatively inexpensive. The airline avoids direct competition with major carriers and aims to be a 'kinder, gentler' low-cost carrier with a focus on customer-friendly policies."
