Since its launch on April 28, 2021, Avelo has served over 8.8 million customers, significantly contributing to the airline industry by operating more than 70,000 flights across 32 destinations in 12 states and Puerto Rico. Notably, Avelo specializes in servicing underserved communities, focusing on convenience and accessibility by flying into smaller, manageable airports. As a result, the airline strives to provide a smoother travel experience, eliminating the chaos associated with large hubs.
Avelo Airlines prides itself on its reliability. According to recent industry reports from Anuvu, Avelo ranked among the top three airlines in terms of on-time performance and flight cancellations in 2025. This achievement is critical in gaining traveler confidence, which is reflected in their high Net Promoter Scores (NPS), consistently placing them among the most reputable airlines in the U.S. and beyond.
In addition to its core services, Avelo Airlines launched a membership program called Avelo PLUS in the fall of 2025, which provides exclusive perks and savings to members. Benefits include discounted fares, free priority boarding, special promotions, a $50 renewal bonus, and the ability to share rewards with up to nine friends. This initiative added more value for frequent flyers and enhances their affordable service model.
Avelo Airlines also recognizes the importance of comfort and versatility with their seating options, which feature extra legroom configurations from 32 to over 36 inches. Customers can enjoy advanced seat assignments, as well as unbundled options, allowing travelers to choose and pay for only what they need—like priority boarding, checked luggage, and carry-ons.
Families traveling with children can feel at ease knowing that kids 14 and under will automatically be seated with an adult at no extra cost. This extra consideration ensures a comfortable and straightforward travel experience for families.
Avelo Airlines is dedicated to inspiring travel by saving time and money for their customers, making flying not just accessible but enjoyable. As it approaches new milestones, including an order of 100 new Embraer 195-E2 aircraft set to arrive in 2028, Avelo continues to redefine the air travel landscape in America, combining convenience, affordability, and operational excellence in the process.
