Avelo Adds Nonstop Flights to Las Vegas and Los Angeles from Salem/Portland
Avelo Airlines announced this week new nonstop service from the greater Salem / Portland region to Las Vegas and Los Angeles.
The low-cost carrier is the first commercial airline serving Salem Municipal Airport (SLE) in nearly 15 years and is the only airline offering nonstop flights from SLE to the Entertainment Capital of the World and Southern California.
Salem sits in the heart of the Oregon’s Willamette Valley, home to nearly 100 cities, including Portland, Eugene, Corvallis and Beaverton. With 70% of Oregon’s population living in the Valley, Avelo’s new service at SLE makes getting to Southern California and Las Vegas even more convenient
There’s also a promotion to celebrate the new routes. Introductory one-way fares between SLE and Las Vegas’ Harry Reid International Airport (LAS) and L.A.’s best airport, Hollywood Burbank Airport (BUR) start at $39.
Fares must be booked by July 26, 2023 for travel completed by December 15, 2023. Fares are available on a limited number of flights and seats. Additional fees for carry-on and checked bags, assigned seats and other optional services may apply. A $20 charge per seated traveler applies to all bookings or changes made through Avelo’s Customer Support Center. Customers can make reservations at AveloAir.com.
Avelo will operate twice-weekly nonstop service on Thursdays and Sundays between Salem and Las Vegas beginning October 5, 2023. Twice-weekly nonstop service on Fridays and Mondays between Salem and BUR begins on October 6, 2023, this route will then adjust to Thursdays and Sundays on November 2. Both routes will utilize Boeing Next-Generation (NG) 737 aircraft.

“L.A.’s best airport, Hollywood Burbank Airport (BUR)”
Hah! While I like the convenience of BUR and use it whenever possible – nice development with expanded flights – it’s still a lousy airport! Cramped, limited amenities, no moving walkways, no lounges, old and dingy.
It doesn’t at all have the cool factor like Long Beach (LGB).
