Finally, an Alternative to Denver International: Avelo Airlines Takes Off for City of Angels
First mainline airline to serve Fort Collins / Loveland in nearly a decade
Exclusive service connecting Northern Colorado and Southern California starts at $39
Avelo Airlines’ first flight today from Fort Collins / Loveland to Los Angeles represents the airline’s Northern Colorado debut and marks the first mainline airline departure from the region since 2012. Avelo’s arrival at Northern Colorado Regional Airport (FNL) offers Northern Colorado a more convenient and affordable alternative to Denver International Airport (DEN).
One-way very low fares starting at $39* on the twice-weekly service are available at AveloAir.com. The new flights between FNL and Los Angeles’ most convenient and popular airport — Hollywood Burbank Airport (BUR) — will be the region’s only direct service to “The City of Angels.”
Avelo Chairman and CEO Andrew Levy said “Getting to Los Angeles from Northern Colorado is now easier and more affordable than ever. We’re excited to take flight today to one of the world’s most beautiful and popular vacation destinations. This new route demonstrates our commitment to inspiring more people to travel to and from the region’s most convenient airport.”
Starting today, the flight operates Wednesdays and Saturdays, departing FNL at 11:15 a.m., arriving BUR at 12:40 p.m. The return flight departs BUR at 7:10 a.m. and arrives at FNL at 10:35 a.m.
“Residents within the Northern Colorado Region have expressed a solid desire for more convenient and cost-effective air travel options,” said Northern Colorado Airport Director, Jason Licon. “Avelo has committed to partner with smaller more convenient airports like ours, offering affordable flights to popular destinations such as the Los Angeles area. We are excited to welcome Avelo to Northern Colorado!”
Amidst the crowds, long lines, lengthy walks, traffic congestion, and train and shuttle transfers frequently encountered at DEN, FNL offers a refreshingly smooth and simple hometown airport
experience. FNL’s adjacency to major freeways and highways make it Northern Colorado’s most convenient and easily accessible airport.
