Avelo Airlines
Avelo ranked #1 in on-time performance in October

Avelo Airlines is soaring into the busy holiday travel season as America's most reliable airline.

In October, Avelo ranked #1 in on-time performance with 90.5% of the airline's flights arriving at their destinations within 15 minutes of their scheduled arrival time – the Department of Transportation's (DOT) standard metric for reporting on-time performance in the U.S. airline industry known as A14. Avelo's industry-leading performance in October fueled Avelo's 2024 year-to-date (January through October) #1 ranking in on-time performance. The airline also delivered the industry's lowest YTD flight cancellation rate.

These results are reported by Anuvu, a leading third-party aviation data services company also utilized by The Wall Street Journal for the publication's annual airline ranking. Anuvu's complete industry results and rankings are available at AveloAir.com.

October was the second month in a row Avelo achieved a 90% or higher on-time percentage – the only U.S. airline to deliver this elite level of reliability. Delta Air Lines and United Airlines rounded out the top three spots with on-time performances of 89.6% and 87.0%, respectively.

Through October, Avelo delivered an industry-leading on-time performance of 85.1% – eclipsing the industry average of 77%. Additionally, Avelo achieved the lowest YTD flight cancellation rate among U.S. carriers — cancelling 0.5% of its flights between January and October. Avelo's performance was well head of the industry average YTD flight cancellation rate of 1.5%.

 

Holiday travel momentum

Avelo is heading into the 2024 holiday travel period with more planes, more routes and more destinations, including its first two international routes. This week, Avelo will add an additional Boeing Next-Generation 737 jetliner — expanding its fleet to 20 aircraft.

Over the nex weeks, Avelo will inaugurate more than 15 new routes, including two new domestic destinations (Hartford, CT – BDL and New Orleans, LA – MSY) and the carrier's first two international destinations (Cancun, Mexico – CUN and Montego Bay, Jamaica – MBJ). These new routes build on last month's opening of Avelo's new base at Central Florida's Lakeland International Airport (LAL ) and the introduction of six new routes and two new destinations (Ontario, CA – ONT and Salt Lake City, UT – SLC).
