  • Hey guys! It's time for yet another special full flight video...but this one is REALLY up there and historic. In this vid, I travel aboard Avelo Airlines' B737-800 on their very first revenue flight ever. The route was from their base of operations in Burbank, CA up to Santa Rosa, CA. I had an absolute blast aboard this inaugural flight as the mood and atmosphere onboard from all the employees and Avgeeks to the toasts and announcements were all very special and memorable. This inaugural definitely had the most festivities of any retirement or inaugural flight and even though it was an ultra low cost carrier, I enjoyed every minute of it. I really think Avelo has a chance because they have a clear goal in mind with a strong leadership team to man the ship at the top. If they will actually cater to the passenger and treat people like humans instead of cattle, I think they'll gain a good reputation as time goes on. I will definitely be onboard again in the future to see what a normal experience on Avelo is like, but for now I really hope you guys enjoy this very special flight on the inaugural flight for this new U.S. airline!

    It's nice to see a more 'Ryanair' type airline offering low fares like Avelo are. Of course you have other ULCC over in the states but the pricing structures seems to keep prices the same as other airlines so it's pretty expensive to fly compared to Europe.
    I really hope Avelo can push on and build up a big network around the States. Especially for when I'm next there in February ;)
    Great video mate!

    Two subjects never addressed here--who came up with the name 'Avelo'? And will they ever join one of the Big 3 FF programs? So your a/c had a 4hr layover before heading back to BUR--what were your plans upon arrival? Did most of the avgeeks mill around till departure? Was surprised to see AS and AA parked on the ramp,guessing Avelo is the only airline flying mainline jets to Santa Rosa--would be a great marketing ploy to have one or more wineries feature their product onboard on Santa Rosa departures--would be nice to feature some sort of service upgrade(seats,catering,bonus mileage) for those willing to do so as a future idea
