Avelo Airlines Founder, Chairman, and CEO Andrew Levy said, “As Avelo approaches the third anniversary of our first flight from BUR, we’re excited to make Vegas our 14th popular destination from L.A.’s most popular airport. We were very encouraged by the strong Customer response we received when we offered special flights between BUR and LAS for football’s big game in February. We look forward to offering travelers Avelo’s everyday affordability, convenience, and reliability between these two vibrant cities.”

Hollywood Burbank Airport Executive Director Frank Miller said, “Our passengers know how easy it is to fly from Hollywood Burbank Airport to Las Vegas. We are pleased that Avelo Airlines is making it even more convenient for travelers to do so.”

Avelo launched on April 28, 2021, with scheduled commercial service from its first base at BUR. Since then, the airline has flown 1.1 million Customers from BUR on over 9,000 flights.

America’s Most Convenient Airline

Avelo was founded to Inspire Travel by saving its travelers time and money. Since taking flight nearly three years ago, Avelo has flown 4.3 million Customers on 33,000 flights. Today, Avelo serves 51 destinations in 23 states and Puerto Rico.

Along the way, Avelo has unlocked a new era of convenience, choice and competition by flying unserved routes to primarily underserved communities across the country. On almost every route at least one airport is a small, easy to use airport. This makes every Avelo journey easier and more enjoyable.

Avelo Customers can always change or cancel their itineraries with no extra fees. Additionally, families can travel with ease knowing every child 13 and under will always be automatically seated with an accompanying adult at no additional cost.

Additionally, Avelo offers advanced seat assignments for sale. One third of its seats are extra leg room seats, ranging from 32 inches to more than 36 inches, offering a more comfortable experience for Customers who value more space. In addition to advance seat assignments, Avelo offers several unbundled travel-enhancing options that give Customers the flexibility to pay only for what they value, including priority boarding, checked bags, carry-on overhead bags, and bringing a pet in the cabin.

Avelo is distinguished by its industry-leading reliability. In 2023, the airline achieved the lowest flight cancellation rate in the U.S. airline industry and ranked #2 in on-time reliability. These results are based on Anuvu’s third-party data platform (the same company and platform utilized by The Wall Street Journal for the publication’s annual best and worst airline ranking, which excluded Avelo as well as other airlines in its coverage that did not meet the publication’s size threshold).
