Direct News Source Avelo Airlines Ushers in New Era of Customer Choice and Everyday Low Fares First mainline US carrier launch in nearly 15 years reverses two decades of competition-reducing industry consolidation Today’s debut of Avelo Airlines unlocked a new era of customer choice and everyday low fares — concluding two decades of choice-reducing industry consolidation. As the first new mainline U.S. carrier in nearly 15 years, Avelo’s ultra-low-fare strategy is differentiated by the carrier’s focus on unrivaled Customer convenience and a built-from-scratch Customer-centric culture. “We are making flying more affordable and convenient by taking the greatest efficiencies we can find in the industry and sharing the savings with our Customers in the form of surprisingly low fares,” said Avelo’s Founder, Chairman and CEO Andrew Levy. “Combine that with operating bases at many of the nation’s most convenient airports, infused with a culture of caring, and you have a different and better kind of airline that our Customers will love to fly, our Crewmembers are proud to work for and our shareholders are grateful they invested in.”
