News / Avelo Airlines takes flight for Northern Colorado
Exclusive nonstop service between Los Angeles and Fort Collins begins on October 6 starting at $39
Avelo Airlines takes its first flight on October 6 between Los Angeles and Northern Colorado Regional Airport (FNL) – the convenient and hassle-free alternative to Denver International Airport (DEN). Adjacent to Interstate 25, FNL is an easy 50-minute drive south to downtown Denver and north to Cheyenne.
One-way very low fares starting at $39* are available at AveloAir.com. This first flight marks the first scheduled mainline airline service at FNL in nearly a decade.
The twice-weekly flights between FNL and Los Angeles' most convenient and popular airport -- Hollywood Burbank Airport (BUR) -- will be the only nonstop scheduled airline service between Southern California and Northern Colorado. The flights will be operated by Boeing Next Generation 737-800 aircraft.
Starting October 6, Avelo will fly between BUR and FNL on Wednesdays and Saturdays. The flight departs from BUR at 7:10 a.m. and arrives at FNL at 10:35 a.m. The returning flight departs FNL at 11:15 a.m., arriving BUR at 12:40 p.m.
Northern Colorado's Gateway to Outdoor Adventure
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.
With 300 days of sunshine, snow-capped mountains, idyllic lakes and clear-running rivers, FNL is Northern Colorado's gateway to an array of outdoor activities for every interest. Situated just 50 miles north of Denver and south of Cheyenne, the Fort Collins / Loveland corridor is home to a lively arts and entertainment scene, infinite dining options and a spirited nightlife.
LA's Best Airport
Whether Customers are departing or arriving, BUR offers a refreshingly convenient and hassle-free experience. Named the 2019 "Best U.S. Airport" by Fodor's Travel, BUR features include seamless curbside pickup and drop-off, smaller crowds, unrivaled speed for plane-to-carousel bag delivery, faster TSA security lines, and short walking distances between the terminal and ground transportation, parking and rental cars (instead of the time-consuming shuttles and trains necessary at other larger airports). All of this makes BUR LA's ultra-convenient, stress-free gateway.
A Different, Better and More Affordable Travel Experience
Avelo's everyday low fares have no change or cancellation fees. There is also no charge for Customers who choose to make reservations by phone. Additionally, Avelo offers several unbundled travel-enhancing options that give Customers the flexibility to pay for what they value, including priority boarding, checked bags, carry-on overhead bags, and for bringing a pet in the cabin.
Avelo operates single-class, fuel-efficient 189-seat 737-800 mainline jets, offering a spacious and comfortable experience. Customers may choose from several seating options, including seats with extra leg room, as well as pre-reserved window and aisle seating.
Avelo became America's first new scheduled airline in nearly 15 years when it initiated service on April 28, 2021, from its first base at BUR. The airline – which offers a more convenient, caring and affordable experience – currently serves 11 popular destinations across the Western U.S.
In early November, Avelo will begin serving Customers in Connecticut from its first East Coast base at Tweed-New Haven Airport (HVN). The airline will initially fly between HVN and five popular Florida destinations – Fort Lauderdale, Fort Myers, Orlando, Palm Beach and Tampa.
In its first six months of operation, Avelo is delivering industry-leading reliability. In fact, over the past 90 days, Avelo achieved a 90% on-time performance run rate and reported only two cancellations – representing a 99.8% completion factor.

By caring for one another and owning their commitments, Avelo Crewmembers provide a smooth, enjoyable, reliable and caring experience for its Customers.
