Avelo Airlines announced plans for two additional aircraft at its Lakeland International Airport base, as well as more flights on its schedule.
After stabilizing its finances, Avelo Airlines is now focusing on its long-term strategy, and Lakeland plays a significant role.
Lakeland International Airport (LAL) is one of four current bases where Avelo will concentrate its operations this year. The company plans to add two Boeing Next‑Generation 737‑800 aircraft to LAL’s fleet, as well as 40 local jobs.
What does that mean for Lakelanders? Expect more frequent flights to Charlotte/Concord, NC (another one of Avelo’s bases) and Atlanta, GA by the spring travel season.
Nonstop flights to its seven other destinations will also continue. Right now, you can book flights through late April. Spring break, here we come.
