Activists Call On Maryland To Boot Avelo From BWI

The Maryland state government is facing increasing pressure from activists to boot Avelo Airlines from Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport (BWI). The activists object to the discount airline operating ICE deportation flights on a charter contract for the US Department of Homeland Security. When Avelo announced the contract in May, it immediately faced a wave of public backlash, including organized boycotts, public protests, and calls for legislators to take punitive action.
