Press release from the County Administrative Office:

Avelo Airlines has announced expanded air service between the California Redwood Coast-Humboldt County Airport (ACV) and the Hollywood Burbank Airport (BUR) to meet the growing demand for travel between these vibrant destinations.

Beginning Sunday, June 9, Avelo Airlines will operate five flights a week between Humboldt County and the Los Angeles area. Expanded flights are scheduled to run through August on Sundays, Mondays, Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays, catering to the needs of travelers, including residents, business professionals, students and visitors. Travelers can book their flights now at aveloair.com.

Enhanced air service comes as a result of the strong support for airline travel to Southern California from the Humboldt County community since Avelo began service at ACV in May 2021. With the additional Avelo flights, ACV will have more seats available this summer to/from the Los Angeles area than ever before in the airport’s history. 

“We are thankful to our residents for supporting service to the Los Angeles area and thrilled Avelo is expanding its service to Humboldt County,” said Cody Roggatz, Director of Aviation for the County of Humboldt. “The increased frequency of flights and added seat capacity signify Avelo’s commitment to meeting the evolving needs of travelers and fostering connectivity for our region. We appreciate Humboldt continuing to Fly ACV.”
