Avelo Airlines Launches Three New Routes In One Week

Houston, Texas-headquartered Avelo Airlines is adding three new routes this week, which will see the American budget carrier providing flights to 18 destinations on the East and West Coasts of the United States. In a statement issued on December 16, 2020, the all-Boeing airline said on the new routes it would be offering introductory fares starting from $29.

With hubs at Hollywood Burbank Airport (BUR) in southern California and Tweed New Haven Airport (HVN) in Connecticut, Avelo Airlines offers passengers a more spacious and comfortable experience. Traditionally airlines that operated flights to smaller regional airports used cramped planes like the Bombardier CRJ aircraft. On all Avelo Airlines routes, the startup will use modern Boeing 737 planes configured in a single class 3+3 layout.

When speaking about the new routes in the company statement Avelo Airlines Chairman and CEO Andrew Levy said:

“These three new routes build on the Customer enthusiasm and strong demand Avelo is experiencing coast to coast. We are excited to bring Avelo’s convenience, reliability, and affordability to even more people and places. The launch of these new flights is the latest example of Avelo’s mission to Inspire Travel by helping our customers save time and money.”

The first new route was inaugurated on December 16, 2020, when Avelo Airlines flight number 345 departed Tweed-New Haven Airport (HVN) at 07:00 and arrived at Palm Beach International Airport (PBI) at 10:10. The returning flight back to Connecticut departs PBI at 10:50, arriving in HVN at 13:40. From now until January 4, 2021, Avelo Airline flights between HVN and PBI will be daily before going to five days a week in January on a Monday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.

“We are excited to begin service today between the Palm Beaches and Southern Connecticut. HVN is Connecticut’s most convenient airport and the ultimate gateway between the remarkable cultural, dining, entertainment, and outdoor options both regions have to offer. We look forward to welcoming our new Customers from both popular and beautiful destinations.”
